' total of 4203 wards are in the state's 11 educational, eleemosynary and penal Institutions, whose maintenance is costing the state approximately $1,150,000 annually, ac cording to records In the office of R- B. Goodin, secretary of the state board of control. The present population of these in stitutions shows a substantial increase during- eight years, the average daily population for ths biennium of 1913 1914 bfcing 2895, with the annual main tenance approximating $587,500, or less than one half that at the present time. These figures do not take into con sideration, the more tban 800 orphans, foundlings, wayward girls and other wards of -private charitable institutions, toward whose support the state con tributes more than $125,000 annually. Neither do they include appropriations for building, repairs and other items which are not classed as maintenance. The greatest increase in population during the eight-year period since the institutions were placed under the jurisdiction of the board of control is found at the state institution for feeble minded, whose population has increased from 230 during the biennium of 1913 1914 to 709 in the report of Novem ber, 1922.
