GENERAL PRESENTMENTS Of the Grand Jury Chosen and Sworn for the March Term, 1915, of Cowota Superior Court. To His Honor, It. W. Freeman, Judge of the Superior Court of Coweta coun ty, (la.: We, the grand jury, summoned ami sworn to serve for the March term, 1915, heg to submit the following gen eral presentments CLERK OF SUPERIOR COURT. We have examined the books of this official and lind them neatly kept and correct, so far ns our examination re vealed. ORDINARY. Wo lind the Ordinary’s books well kept, presenting a nent appearance. Wo lind, after a careful examination of the list of pensioners, thut all those on the roll in this county are entitled to remain. TAX COLLECTOR. We (ind the books of the Tax Collec tor very creditably kept. We find that $1,115 has been collected to date, rep resenting the special and corporation tax, which is legally due Jan. 1 of each year. We find that there were 179 special taxpayers in 1914, hut of this number only 59 have registered so far this year. The law prescribes that every corpora tion, firm or individual subject to this tax shall register with the Ordinary and tiny the registration fee of $1 by Jan. 1 of each year; then pay the amount of the tHX to the Tax Collector. We rec ommend thut tho Ordinary and Tax Collector he especially vigilant in the collection of these tuxes. We lind that $118,896 of State and county taxes for 1914 have been collected and turned over to the proper authorities, leaving only a small per cent, uncollected. TAX RECEIVER. We find the returns of this official properly filed and indexed, and we wish to commend him for the neat appear ance of his office. SHERIFF. We find the books and records of this office neatly kept and correct, so far as i we could determine from the limited time we had for examination. COUNTY SCHOOL COMMISSIONER. We find tho hooks of this official neat ly kept und correct, as far as we were able to ascertain We have been fur nished the following figures by the Commissioner: Receipts 1914.. . $22,709 96 Disbursements 1914 . 22,709 3t> In State Treasury to county's credit, balance 1914 appro priation 115,356 67 In State Treasury to county's credit, 1916 appropriation 32,908 25 SURVEYOR. We learn that this official is confined at home by illness, and made no inves tigation of this office. J. P. 8 AMI N. P.'S DOCKETS We have examined the hooks of all the districts except one, (1139th.) There is considerable looseness and irregulari ty about the records. With few excep tions, the indexes are incomplete, or not arranged alphabetically. The records of cases were frequently not complete; dutes sometimes fail to appear; dispo sition of cases does not always appear properly. We recommend thut Justices take more pains with these records, and especially recommend that each case lie properly indexed untier its proper letter when the record is made. COUNTY TREASURER.

We find at the County Farm the fol lowing inmates, viz; 1 white male, 14 females; 7 colored males, 5 colored fe males; total number of inmates, 28. Also, 1 mule, 1 horse, 5 pigs, 150 buBhels corn, 2,000 bundles fodder, 1 two-horse wagon and a lot of chickens. We find the houses in fairly good re pair; also the bedding fairly good. Thirty-five acres are in cultivation. Two luhorers are employed to do the farm work at a cost of $200 per year. About 75 acres are rented out, for which the county receives 10 bales of cotton. We find very little complaint from the inmates, They are well looked af tor. Cost of inmates is $8 per month. We recommend that the houses be whitewashed inside. PUBLIC BUILDINGS. We find the court-house in fine shape. We find the jail in very good condition. The walls of the first floor of the dwell ing portion need tinting or whitewash ing. Also, some of the steam pipes need attention. We find the tiling on the west side of the jail needs repairing. We recommend that a fence be built around the jail. We also think a coal bin should be built, as tho coal now piled against the wall of the jail is not the proper place for it, and is liable to damage the wall. COUNTY CONVICT CAMP. We found 80 convicts in camp, 4 guards, I yard man, and 1 engineer; and, with the superintendent, making a total of 87 men fed in camp. We also fi und 80 mattreBses, 840 blankets, 175 suits, 5 wagons, 4 wheel ers, 20 carts, 2 grade plows, 40 shovels, Sji.r.oc ,w 45 picks and 4 axes. We find the cost f building the present road to be about $3 000 a mile. We found the cost of feeding the men February to tie 13,1 cents per day, and iho cost of feeding the stock 39 cents ppr day. O-ving to the high cost of maintain ing the chaingang, we recommend that the Commissioners of Roads and Reve nue make a thorough investigation of the cost of working our roads by con tract. Under the rules und regulations of the Prison Commission of Georgia a felon can only be worked under cer tain conditions, and the warder, is forced to abide by the rules governing same. Under a system of contract labor these conditions would not prevail, and we think a great saving of money would result to the county. At any rate, the investigation is worthy of considers tion, and we earnestly recommend that it be made. We desire to go on record as opposed to the continuance of the 36-foot road now being worked, and known as the Newnan-Atlanta road. We think that a much narrower road is sufficient to accommodate all present and future travel. We heartily approve the recent order of the board in putting a repair gang on the roads. Complaint has been general throughout the, county that all of the important highways were badly in need of repairs, and the action of the board will meet with general approval. RECOMMENDATIONS. We earnestly recommend that the Commissioners of Roads and Revenue purchase a new map of the county. The present map of the county was made in 1870, and since then there have been many changes in the original county lines. A new map will greatly facilitate the work of the Tax Receiver, and we believe that the map will be paid for by the consequent increase of tax returns. We recommend that the compensa tion of the Commissioners of Roads and Revenue for 1915 he fixed at $50 each, as prescribed by law. We recommend the following names for appointment as N. l’.'s and ex-offi- cio J. P.'s, viz; 691st district, G. M., H. B. Sasser; 647th district, G. M., E. W. Burson; 755th district, G. M., J. A. Bilbo. We recommend the appointment of j Dr. W. L. Woodroof as a member of j the County Board of Health, and that his compensation be fixed at $2 per diem ! for attending regulurly ordered meet- ! ings.

Rosary Hill Home, Hawthorne, N.Y- — “I have been at work among the sick and poor for nearly eighteen years, and whenever I have used Vinol for run down, weak or emaciated patients, they have been visibly benefited by it One patient, a young woman, was so weak and ill she could hardly creep to my door for aid, and was leaning on a friend’s arm. I supplied Vinol to her liberally and in a month when she returned to thank me 1 hardly recognized her. She was strong, her color charming and her cheeks rounded out. These words are uttered from my heart, in order that more people may know about Vinol, as there is nothing makes me happier in the world than to relieve the sick.”— Mother M. Alpiionsa Lathrop.O.S.D., Hawthorne, N.Y. Such disinterested and reliable testi mony should convince everyone of the merits of Vinol, our delicious cod liver and iron tonic to build up health and strength for all weakened and nervous conditions, whether caused from over work, worry orchronic coughs and colds.
