Mr. ,Beers, chairman of the committee on superintendent's accounts and county buildings, presented the following- report, whicli on motion of Mr. Bailey was accepted and ordered spread upon the minutes: To the Roam of Supervisors of Tompkins County: Your committee on superintendent's accounts and county buildings re- port as follows : After edunining the report furnished by the superintendent of the poor and comparing the same with his books and vouchers. we find that there was appropriated by the Board of Supervisors during its regular session of 1889 the sum of $4,600.00, and that there were no funds in the hands of the Superintendent at the beginning of the year ending November Isth, 189o. 66 SUPERVISORS' PROOEEDItioS, 1890. We find that the said sum of $4,600.00 was insufficient to pay all the ex- penses of maintaining the poor for the year ending November 15th, 1890, and that there now existsa deficiency of $2x2.68 which it will be necessary to provide for in addition to the amount to be raised for the ensuing year. Those who wish to know just what has been received, and for what it has been expended, during the year just past, and the amount of farm products raised and consumed, we would refer to the carefully itemized report of Superintendent Lyke, and do commend the same to the careful attention of the taxpayers of Tompkins county. Your committee has made estimates for funds required to maintain the 1 almshouse in its several departments for the year ending November 15th, 89r, and recommend that the amounts estimated be levied and collected upon the taxable inhabitants of Tompkins comity on the next ensuing tax- ' roll of said county : Deficiency Nov. 15th, 1890 5222 68 , County at almshouse 65o 00 Services of overseers 210 00 Transportation of paupers 45 00 Out -door relief C4 00 toStoves and furniture loo 00 Salary of keeper 300 00 Total to be raised by county 2,917 68 For the support of town poor by towns: Caroline 22 Danby 172 9 Dryden 3 44 Enfield 44 4 Groton..119 9 tliacl i,o14 85 Lansing 110 64 188Newfield 9 Ulysses 102 66 Total by towns z,216 41 1 Your committee find that the county buildings, with the exception of the - almshouse, are in fair condition. The court -house roof needs some slight repairs, which the committee on ordinary repairs should he instruct- ed to attend to. We believe the steam - heating boiler now located in the jail basement sufficiently large to heat the court-house in- addition to what SUPERVISORS' PROCEEDINGS, 1890.Oil is now required of it, and would recommend that changes necessary to bring about such service he made. The jail and county clerk's office meet the present requirements. If the location of the almshouse is to remain unchanged and the present building retained to shelter our county and town poor, it should be put in much better condition than it is•at present. The whole afterpart should be- torn away and a commodious, well arranged kitchen, dining and bath- rooms, with hot water and steam boiler fixtures should be built and put in good running order during the ensuing year The amain building with a few changes could be put in .good condition. Tour committee have every reason to believe that the whole expense of such improvements could he made for less than $g,oeo.00. The sanitary condition of the present building is not absolutely bad, but it is not as good as your eoriuuittee would have it. When you consider the character, age, and physical condition of the average inmate of an almshouse, you cannot help being surprised and grati- fiedwith the very low death rate during the year just past. Your committee believe that the inmates of the almshouse have whole- some food, sufficient iii quantity, and that the sick do, and can, have what- ever the attending physician may prescribe for their comfort and welfare, all'of which is i'espectfully subvnitted.
