Poor Farm Facilities Said
Good, Upkeep Job Not Bad
Health condition! t the Lane
County Poor Farm are not serious
y deficient at the present time,
but aome extensive changes would
have to be made if the Oregon
State Baptist Convention converts
the old folks" home to an orphan
age. This was the opinion of City
Fire Marshal Lester Barker and
Health Officer Dr. A. Triolo Sat
urday, after they had inspected
the site for the Baptist.
The State Public Welfare Com
mission deferred approval of the
orphanage plan during its regular
meeting in Portland Friday, but
promised a special meeting as soon
as possible to give the plan further
consideration.
Said Dr. Triolo: "We found the
place in pretty good condition
from the sanitation standpoint and
the way it Is maintained." Barker,
who looked for flaws that would
be hazardous if children occupied
the building, said he found "noth
ing too bad" at the present time.
However, he suggested the fol
lowing improvements if children
are to occupy the home: check
of the wiring by an electrician,
and new wiring if it is needed;
enclosure of the Inside stairway
which leads to the second floor;
rebuilding of an outside stairway
which has a high step at the bot-

torn: rehanging of all doors to

size fuses.
Baker also said that wood heat
ing stoves in the women's annex
which he said are suitable for use
by adults, would have to be re
placed if youngsters lived In the
building.
Better
"The maintenance and house
keeping at the county poor farm
are good," he said, adding that "It
Is better, in some Instances, than
In Eugene homes occupied by eld
erly persons."
'As bachelor quarters go," said
Dr. Triolo, "we thought it was
awfully good. The poor farm isn't
a "Grand Hotel," but it is well
kept, clean, and the bathroom fa
cilities are adequate."
"Of course," he said, "the fel
lows have to make their own beds,
and there Is some variance in
their bed-making techniques."
Dr. Triolo said the standard for
bathroom facilities is one stool for
each ten persons. There are eight
toilets for the SO old people at
the poor farm, he stated, plus one
for the cook and a separate unit in
the women's annex.
The health officer concurred
with the fire marshal on the re.
moval of the present heating
system If the Baptists convert the
building to an orphanage. Hp also
recommended a two-compartment
sink for more efficient sterilization
of dishes; a system of ventilation
other than Individual windows;
md additional refrigeration In the
kitchen.
