CALL OR WRITE THE Flint River Milling Co. Bainbridge, «■ Georgia I GRAND JURY PRESENTMENTS (Continued from page ti.i ings at the County Farm are in good condition. County Farm We invite your inspection of the County Farm and think you will find it in excellent condition. Superintendent Tucker resides there and Has charge of the farm and the stockade as well as road and bridge work. Working as we do an average of 100 convicts, it is necessary for us to have a central stockade, from which the convicts radiate to all parts of the county. Also at this stockade we operate a hospital and treat all sick and disabled convicts. We also send to the farm for treatment and recuperation all disabled mules. Our buildings .tbire are now adequate lor our pres nt purposes. Ou- iarming operations have bewu somewhat reduced this year: At the same time we are able to report a pretty good yield in food crops, as follows: Oats, thrashed, 1055 bushels at 75c, $791.25. Oats in the sheave, 1000 bushels, $750.00. Peavine Hay, 60 tons, at $20.00, $1,200.00. Cane, 12 acres, esti mated at 120 barrels, $1,440.0. Sweet Potatoes, 12 acres, esti mated at 1400 bushels, $840.00. Corn, 130 acres, estimated at 2500 bushels, $2,000.00. Hogs, sold on the hoof, $873.60. Total $7,894.85. In addition to the Iigs sold, we will have about 100 hogs to kill and teed to the convicts dur ing the winter. We thought it advisable to sell what we did on account of the approch of cholera in our neighborhood. Another food crop, the value of which we are [unable to esti mate, is our truch gaiuen, which consists of about 20 a ires, plant ed lo all kinds of garden truck, to be fed to the convicts. We en deavor to keep them supplied with vegetables throughout the year. We are at present sowing 300 acres of oats and 40 acres ot rye. At the County Farm there is usually from 10 to 20 convicts, including those used on the farm and in the hospital or otherwise disabled, and at the same time there is alwavs one road squad quartered and fed at the County Farm and worked from there on the roads radiating from Bain bridge for a distance of 6 to 10 miles. There is also fed from the County Farm the paupers in the poor house. We have at present 3 black male paupers, 1 black female, 1 white male and 2 whit# females. The most of these paupers are old and diseased and require medical attention and a good deal of care. Captain Tuck er gives them this attention and makes them comfortable. In the way of live stock we have 85 mules, about 15 of which are now incapacitated from heavy work on account of age, so we are advertising these for sale and are buying 15 young mules to take their place. We have 57 cows, 1 bull and 22 yearlings. From these we produce milk, butter and beef for the convicts. We have 31 stock, hogs and 2 boars and between 75 and 100 pigs. We will have about 100 meat hogs for consumption dur ing the winter. To snpport and fatten hogs and cows we plant an ample crop of peanuts and velvet beans. In conclusion permit us to say tint our investigation shows that our tax rate in Decatur county is lower than any of our neighbor ing counties and at the same J:ime we are in better financial condition and are able to show better public improvements in the way of roads and bridges. We must also say that the latter condition is due to the diligence and efficiency of our county superintendent of roads, Mr. George S. Tusker. We invite in spection by tne Grand Jury of all departments. Capt Tucker will be please to show your com mittee over the roads and bridges. Respectfully submitted by or der of the Board. L.
