We visited the County Home and inspected the dwelling, barn and oth er buildings together with the cattle and hogs as well as the crops. Also suppJies of feed and groceries on hand, we find that the farm is in reasonably good condition and the stock in good shape. A reasonable I quantity of feed and grain on hand. There appears to be a sufficient quan tity of flour and wheat and meat, also canned goods to last the inmates quite a while. We find that certain repairs should be made to the dwelling and out bnildingc, to- wit: The barn should be painted and the concrete driveway be extended the full length of tho building. There should be a new porch on the west side of the building, on the outside of the kitchen, 14x22 feet, so as to cover the door and win dows ,?nd connect with the dairy. There should also be a glass door sub stituted for one of the windows in the main quarters of the keeper build ing on the north *idc of the building so as to give access to the porch on the north side. There are two rooms oc cupied bv inmates 011 the second floor that should have screens put over the windows. We find the roof of the home in bad condition and recom mend that it be made waterproof by such repairs as may be found neces sary. We also recommend that 011 ac count of the condi ion of some of the inmates who arc unable to walk about In the home that there be a wheel i chair provided for such purposes.
