8. State number quarts milk produced between October 1, 1904, and September 30, 1905... None. 9. State number quarts milk consumed during same period 35,955 10. State number quarts milk purchased during same period 35,955 11. State provisions produced between October 1, 1904, and Sep 2. For completing cottages five and six, including steam, water, sewer and lighting connections. As at Albion, the appropriation made at the last Legislature was not sufficiently large to cover the outside connections and other matters that it was necessary to eliminate in order to erect the buildings for occupancy. 3. For barn and root cellar.... The barn at this institution is in a very dilapidated condition and must be rebuilt. It is desirable that at the same time a root cellar should be built in conjunction therewith. With proper storage facilities a sufficient quantity of vegetables could be stored here for the entire winter, thus enabling the institution, which is in a remote section, to make purchases in the fall at a very much lower price. 4. For new stack and repairing wall of boiler $55,000 00 11,300 00 2,675 00 house.. 4,000 00 5. For duplicate boiler feed pump and governor...

The institution has very much increased in population, and, while I should like very much to make a recommendation in this line similar to that at Albion, the fact that the stack, which has been built many years, shows a tendency to topple over, the necessity for the rebuilding of the same is urgent and, when it is rebuilt, it will be large enough to cover the needs of the institution for all time. 6. For repairs and equipment. $200 00 1,000 00 The following statement of the disposition of the appropriations for extraordinary repairs and improvements is brought up to the date of calculation, which is March 1, 1906; this having been done with a view to giving an exact knowledge of the conditions that subsequent requirements might be more closely estimated: Superintendent, Col.
