                         INSPECTION OF COUNTY POOR HOUSES.
                         
              MOWER COUNTY POORHOUSE was visited August 5, 1892. There
            was only one inmate, who has been in the poorhouse sixteen
            years. The largest number at one time during the past year
            was four. An excellent barn had just been completed at a 
            cost of $1,300, with accommodations for six horses, forty
            head of cattle and sixty ton of hay. The commissioners
            have considered the advisability of building an addition
            to the house, but have wisely abandoned it. When anything
            is done it should be done in the direction of a new build-
            ing from the foundation. The house was in a clean and whole-
            some condition - never better. The one pauper appeared neat
            and comfortable.
