There are sixty-three bodies to be interred at the county poor farm, which represent the winter's mortality at that institution. A local undertaker who has the contract for dig- ging the graves will take a small army of diggers to the poor farm today. The county board of control has become more generous and each pauper will have a separate grave. In the past several were placed in one grave. ==========================================================================
