The net incoms of the fund was $111,938.85 u‘vnfig $108.430.34 for the previous year, earnings amount to 5.54 per The gross earnings amounted to §120,- 000 and this amount in e éatrety wix turned over to t¥s state to of education. The @ wetn the 8ross amount of earnings and the fet représent the expenss connected with the management of the fund. These e: are paid out of the general Bl list 8o that the entire earnings of the fund afe devoted to the purposes of mon school education as the state tution. requires. Those in charge of the administration of the fund do mot always find farm property an attractive souree of invest. ment, and that fact explains the inability to invest the principal of the fund in louns to farmers in this tate. Under a law passed some time eince the money invested in western real estate, prinel- pally in Ohio, has been withdrawn to thé amount of §200,000 from the west and - vested in this state. There iy an errone- ous impression among some farmers in Connecticut that when the integrity of the fund was secured by a constitutional provision the intention was to loan it to farmers in Connecticut 0 as to encour- age agriculture. There is ncthing in the capstitutional provision to show that those who dratted it had that in mind when it was written. The provision concerns itself only with common school education when it says: “The fund, called the school fund, shal remain a perpetual fund, the interest of which shall be involably appropriated in the support and encouragement of the public or common schools throughout, the state and for the equal benefit of all the veople thereof.” In passing, it may be interesting to note that when the fund was, made invioable by a constitutional provision it had a mortgage of $10,000 on the property in New Hartford to which the late Mr. Birdseye secured title. e NORWICH DELEGATES RETURN FROM A. 0.
