REPORT OF OVERSEERS OF THE POOR
FOR THE YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 1917.
The appropriation for this department for 1917, except that made for mothers with dependent children, was $14,500.00 to which is added $100.07, the income credited to this department from certain trust funds. Of this amount $13,554.62 has been spent in the maintenance of the Almshouse and its inmates and for the relief of the outside Poor. The number of persons aided has been 195, somewhat smaller than last year, but the high cost of supplies of all kinds has brought our expenditures larger than they would ordinarily have been. At the Almshouse we have the same number (14) as last year, and the Superinten- dent, with some hired help, and the aid of those of the inmates who are able to work, has had his usual fine garden, besides growing 40 bushels shelled corn, 65 bushels potatoes, 25 barrels cabbage, 15 bushels onions, 9 bushels turnips and 1,451 lb pork. We have at present 3 fine cows and three heifers. For the use of this department we recommend an appropriation of $14,- 000.00 for the year 1918.
MOTHERS WITH DEPENDENT CHILDREN.
Our appropriation for this department was $4,000.00, from which has been expended $3,159.18, for the relief of 10 mothers with 27 children under 14 years of age and 8 children over 11 years, a total of 45 persons receiving aid under the law of 1912.
We recommend an appropriation of $4,000.00 for the year 1918.
