: Prison Farm
'Provides Food
Tor Inmates
: By Wllllali Warren
(United Prew iiuff CorrwnwndcnO
Siilcm, Aug. 18 HP1 You should
see the beautiful, lush, farm of
1.600 Bcies out Turner road east
of Salem.
" You should see the prize pro
duce, poultry and livestock. Look-
Ing like a preview of the state
'' fair: corn, carrots and cattle; oys-
ter plants, parsnips and porkers;
potatoes, tomatoes and turkeys;
swlss chard and chickens; green
a peppers and white pekin ducks.
You should sec this phenomenal
J farm then hope you'll never have
to take over a share of its chores.
" It is the-state prison farm, more
5 formally known as the Oregon
state penitentiary annex.
J Quite a difference in the atmos
a phere about this scenic setup
from the state prison proper,
J Here at the farm are only trus
a ties. The feeling is more inform-
al, more hopeful. The inmates eat
" with knives and forks as well as
I the spoons, which are the only
? implements In the mess hall at
the big house. Guards eat in the
same room, get the same good
food, well cooked and well served.
J More Informal
f Everett Kaiser, sever pleasant
J and a gent who thoroughly knows
; his farming, is the superintendent
j of the prison annex. The inmates
call him "boss" in a way that
I clearly indicates he has their re-
gard. The guards here are a bit
more informal, for they're dealing
J with the men oh good behavior,
a Copper, the 14-year-old cocker
spaniel, is friend alike of inmates
J and guards and the pet of , all of
I them.
First a quick look at the main
annex building, which was the old
boys' state training scnool before
that institution moved to Wood
I burn in 1930. Here most of the
f trusties sleep and take their
i meals. It is on Annex hill com
J manding a breath-taking view of
''J Salem and the Willamette valley
to the west and the Cascades to
J the east. The grounds are beau-
tifully kept by a lifer trusty who
is a wizard at gardening. The
sleeping quarters are like large
, dormitories except for the bars
over the windows. This is the
home for tfte time being of a few
more than 100 individuals,
, Barns Modem
Charlie Daugherty, the old-time
guard, takes us down the hill to
! the two well-built dairy . barns.
Each has two large silos. It's
milking time; In one barn are the
J Holsteins, yielding their generous
output ro ine miming inacrune&.
In the other barn are the Guern-
seys and the Jerseys, being milk
J ed to soft music coming from a
, radio at the far end of the barn.
Their milk is richer in butterfat,
' and is destined largely for the
; tuberculosis hospitals and wards.
'- Across the way is the sanitary
cream house, where the milk is
pasteurized and cooled, and the
cream is separated. Fine-looking
work horses idle alone the rolline
J hills near the barns, their day's
l toil ended. . .
BacH .to . the ..annex building,
' where we greet Superintendent
, Kaiser, then jump into his car for
a cruise of the acres.
Garden Huge
. And what acres! Some 300 of
i them in truck gardens cabbage,
green peppers, carrots, swlss
. chard, tomatoes, parsnips.
i Another 60 acres in ladlno
clover, for pasture. Sixty acres
J in sweet corn for canning and
i eating at the pen, and 40 acres
of ensilage corn for the cattle.
Also for the cattle and horses.
J 600 acres yielding 1,000 tons of
i nay
Four acres of cucumbers for
: pickles; four of hubbard and zuc-
chini squash; 15 of cabbage, 10 of
beets, and more acres of green
onions. All this goes to feed the
, men of the state prison. Some of
the larm s produce particularly
milk also goes to other state in
" stitutions, including the TB hospi
. tals and schools for deaf and blind.
And don't forget the two acres

Pittsburgh, of the Kansas-Okla-
homa-Missouri league, is right in
there pitching, too. It has drop
ed 64 against 26 well-scattered
wins for a .2xs mark wnicn is
28 ' games off the league lead.
American league fans will admit
that their nickname, "ine
Browns," is very apt
Battling it out for last place
among the .200 winners are the
Kingston Ponies of the uoraer
league and Mcdford, Ore., of the
Far West league with identical
records of 29 w ins, 69 losses and
a .296 mark. Metliord is Known
as the "Nuggets," which is a lot
of fool's gold. That's what they
get in Kingston for playing the
ponies.

national revenue collector James
P. Finnigan was trying today to
figure out an answer to a mun
who wrote:
"My wife Just died. I broke my
leg yesterday. I lost a job last
week that 1 had held for 25 years.
Two sons in the army can't help.
My home has been foreclosed and
my furniture taken by a mort

tastes just like oyster soup. '
lhe larm is irrigated by Mill
creek, which flows from the San
tiam past the prison annex,
through the Willamette university
campus and into the Willamette.
Aptly Named
Three of the hills here on the
farm are aptlv named Hog hill.
Chicken hill and Turkey hill. The
hogs raised are something to see.
About 950 hogs on their hill.
Some 15 are butchered weekly.
averaging 4,500 pounds of pork
for hungry inmates. . There s a
separate pig house for the ma
mas and their young 'uns. You
see the little fellows avidly enjoy
ing a snack while mother just
about dozes little piggies doing
their darndest to build themselves
into pork.
On l urkey . hill are some 500
turkeys each year, for institu
tions' feast at Thanksgiving,
Christmas and New Year.
On Chicken hill some 4,000
young are hatched each year. The
farm keeps 3.500 laying hens in
constant production most of
them White Leghorns. They pro
duce 100 to 120 dozen eggs a dav.
A -chart is kept on each laying
nen, and when her production
falls below the economic level,
she's earmarked for fricassee.
Ducks, Too
Down hill, in the duck pond are
mostly White Pekins, with some
Mallards. A total of about 600 a
year go for an occasional duck
dinner for the inmates.
It's a beautiful place, this pris
on' annex with nothing to indi
cate the nature of it except the
bars on the dormitory windows.
Nothing to hold the trusties here
but their consciences and the
knowledge that if they walk over
the hill, they wjll swap all this for
solitary confinement in the bull

' Here the" men really get a
chance to rehabilitate themselves.
And when they leave, they have
enough knowledge of farming to
go it legitimately if that is the
way they want it. ;
.400 ball and the tough luck club
of the lot is Radford in the Blue
Ridge circuit. The Rockets have
been zipping right along with h
record of 44 wins against 53 loss
es for a .454 mark. Yet they
are in last place, although only
12 games off the pace.
All of which is a great lesson
in futility. And, when you con
sider the plight at Leavenworth,
it probably adds up to the inside
story of Southworth's '"retire
ment" along with dissension, fist
fights.' illness and the-fact that
the Braves are in fourth place.
Old Pictures Found

A group of old family poi traits,
possibly of sentimental value to
the owner, was brought to The
