Halem. Or.. Oct. 29. In hi biennial
report to the state board of control.
filed today. Superintendent Steiner. of
thf; ntatj hospital for the Insane here,
nays that the p?r capita cost per
month for each patient, which includes
Clothing, food, nursing and medical
treatment, was $14.61, or 48 cents per
day. Dr. Steiner urges the necessity
of completing the receiving hospital,
no that male patients can have quar
ters there. It is now available for
women patients only.
The report shows that on October 1,
1612. there wore 110 male and 55 J fe
male patients, a total of 1704 In the
usylum, and that, there were remaining j
at the end of the biennial period, Sep-!
teintjc.r 60, 1914, JOr.t males and 527
females, a total of 1576. During the
biennial period 325 patients were trans
ferred to the new eastern Oregon hos
pital, 155 escaped and N2 were re
captured, 271 recovered their reason,

During the biennial period 774 males
and 474 females, a total of 1 248, were
received. A total of eight, five males
and three females, were discharged as
not Insane and 293 patients died. The
total number of those transferred, dis

term was males and BOO females, a
total of I45S, anil the total number
tinder treatment during the term was
2007 males and 1 027 females, a total of
S034.
It Is pointed out In the report that
1248 patients were received during the
term, but t7 less than the number re
ceived during the proceeding biennial
period, despite the fact that the east
ern section of the state had been cut
off and sent patients to the new hos

it on a daily average of 1500 patients,
while the daily average was 1529.22.

Some interesting statistiis are given
as to the forms of insanity, one item
being that 95 cases are classed as al

Tn this class are SI males and 11 fe

' The report deals at some length with
the occupation and amusements of the
patb-ntK. Hasktiv,, rug making, nee
dlework, fanev sewing and laundry
work formed the principal indoor oc
cupations of the women and there was
berry picking ,ind other work on the
outside The men were employed in
agricultural and other pursuits.
No one was forced to work against
his will, it Is asserted in the report.
"We have fotimd that almost every
patient can be taught or persuaded to
-do something helpful if proper tact is
employed." says the report.
The attendants are not permitted to
be brutal, it is asserted. In discussing
this question, it is urged that stringent
laws should be passed for the punish
ment of attendants who may mistreat
patients. If there is-any evidence tha
an attendant hu-.i misused a patient;
the attendant is promptly discharged,
it Is stated.
Asks Parole System.
It is urged that a law should be
passed making it possfblo to parole pa
tients. It is asserted that under the
present law this is impossible, and
inofty. harmlessi patients could be cared
for ftt home, at: least part of tho year.
Kighty-three patients were deported
