Efficiency ' and a productiveness of farming operations at state in stitutions ; in Oregon apparently compares favorably with those of other western states. Warden George Alexander;, of the ; state penitentiary reported to the state board of control. Thursday, fol lowing his return from San Fran cisco where he attended a meet ing of state institution heads. , The meeting was called by the war p'roluction board and a large number of western state institu tions were represented. ; i : ' . Alexander said he was most im pressed at the meeting by, the of fer pf government officials to as sist 1 the state Institutions in ob taining farming machinery and Improving dairy herds. He added that canning operations at some of 1 the ; Oregon state institutions might be improved and developed through the purchase and opera tion of portable canneries. " "Interchange of vegetables, fruits and other farm products be tween California state institutions has proved beneficial Alexander said. ; State Treasurer Leslie Scott de nounced the waste of electric en ergy In state buildings, : In ' the course of discussion of a proposal to improve the lighting system in the i state industrial - school for girls. , "It is my opinion that we waste almost as much electric energy as we ' require under normal condi-j tions," Scott declared.
