But these days have passed, and the poor farm would now be under a competent board of county -comnrissioners with the interest of the county’s affairs at heart and “pickings” not the paramount issue. " Various townships throughout the county have been hard| hit by paying expenses of the unfortunate and that without| the proper care. ‘Bemidji has been the mecca for hundreds of paupers and transients unloaded upon the taxpayers from all directions and maintained out of the city treasury, without one cent’s worth of return. ‘The environment of these people, with no criticism, has not been of the best owing to lack of facilities and nothing of a modern nature. It has been a problem to the authorities and many others, as residence: districts do not welcome such for personal and property reasons. In point, we know of several county poor farms, one to which in particular attention is called. Tt consists of a main brick structure, warm and comfortable, with suitable barns, sheds and outbuildings for the care of stock, feed for the cattle, horses, hogs, chickens and other varieties of farm stock, also to house the farm machinery and equipment. The -caretaker and his wife were most competent. The inmates, all that possibly could, were each assigned to regular duties as exercise and in return for their keeping. No hardships were incurred by anyone. All had clean and suitable apart- ments and were well housed, clothed and fed. The crops and other farm products and the sale of live stock aided materially to the maintenance of the inmates. They enjoyed the diver- gions and when sickness entered they were given intelligent care z ness and wide tire wagon with top box. Will.sell team separate. E. J.

There was also the . annual inspection by the board of county commissioners and a report was made. Records were carefully kept and the entire conduct of the affairs were given in a report to the taxpayers of the county. There was nothing mysterious about it.. It was purely a business and humane institution and it served its purpose admirably. B will not require an enormous sum. The county at present owns a farm whereon stood the destroyed structures which served for the county’s care of unfortunates. It is stated by some that another location would be more suitable, that the farm could be sold and another site selected and quickly developed, while the structures need not cost a large sum. The proper spirit was seen when a farmer remarked one day this week to a representative of The Pioneer: “We have no poor families in our township and it doesn’t cost us a cent. But I believe the entire county should help and the expense individually would be small, in some cases a great deal less than now. I approve of the change.” = AVA AVAAVAAVAAVALVAAVARVAAVARVAAVAAVAAYAAYS AVAASS YouNeed Less SugarWhen POSTUM is your table beverage The natural flavor of this family table drink is close- ly like excellent coffee.
