CITY FARM IS PROPOSED
ST. PAIX BEARS PLAN TO ABAN

ST. PAUL Aug. U St. Paul's work
house will be replaced by a municipal
farm If the plans of Mayor Powers,
Commissioner Gous and other mem
bers of the City Council can be carried
to completion.
Although it is not probable that they
will see Hie project realized during
their present official terms, the move
ment which they will father promises
to become a popular one and to reach
definite form within two or three
years.
The budget for next year will be
high without adding s.ny unnecessary
extra features, and for this reason it is
improbable that tbe plan for a munici
pal farm will be broached in more
than a preliminary way this year.
Mayor Powers has investigated the
subject by making Inquiries In other
cities. Commissioner Goss has made
similar inquiries and both are of the
opinion that the purchase of a farm
by- St. Paul will be a good move.
The workhouse is in bad repair and
within a year or two a big sum must
be spent if It is to be repaired and
remodoled to suit the needs of the
city," said Mayor Powers.
'It would be a great deal better for
prisoners to work out of doors on a
farm.
I always have felt ashamed of the
fact that the workhouse Is right at the
entrance to St. Paul's most beautiful
park and one of the prettiest parks
In the country.
The municipal farm In Kansas City
attracted the attention of the St. Paul
officials when they visited the Missouri
metropolis last Winter. Statistics in
Kansas City show a decrease in the
number of "chronic prisoners' as a re
sult of the Influence of outdoor work.
The city should buy an unimproved
tract, according to Mayor l'owers.
Rough land is preferable to land that
easily cultivated.
of the Government's "conscience" fund,
has received a letter from the wife of
an Oklahoma farmer asking him please
to send her (1000 from the fund, so
that she could purchase two cows, a
much-needed set of false, teeth and an
automobile.
She confided that she needed the
money a great deal more than the Gov
ernment does and expressed the earnest
conviction that it could not be put to
better use than where it is needed on
the farm.
Secretary McAdoo has received sev
eral leters suggesting useful purposes
to which the conscience fund might be
applied, but none so confidingly trust
ful as this one.
