Hi TORONTO JAIL FARM HAS OlSAPPOlNTEO ADMIRERS There is a general impression, and among those who ought to know. a general admission, that the .1311 Farm 13 not fulfilling the func- tions for which it was established. The question has been brought up. recently in the City Gounod. and there promise to be further inquir- ies set on foot with a view of determining the fault of the sys- tem. or if the fault does not lie in the system. the responsibility of the ofi'icials who have brought about this failure. So far as the citizens of Toronto are concerned there are several questions linked with the question of the Jail Farm. one of them being the provision for aged and indigent persons who, through no fault of their own, find themselves a public charge. l'nâ€" doubtedly it. is the will of the- pcuplu of TUL‘UHiO that. tiles?) Oiti peonle. men and women alike. shall be decently and kindly cared for. and that there shall be a sharp discrimination between the decent. aged indigent and the otl‘enders who break the law. For the one a home should be provided. {01' lho? others a place of correction. Idleness Encouraged The most. glaring and obvious de- fert. of the Jail Farm at, present. is that it fails to provide work for the criminal inmates. There are. hundreds of acres of farm land available. and one would think that fro m May in Hetoiwr at least occu- pation (‘miloi he provided for the able-bodied prisoners as" farmers. ---A-‘ PAGE 2 and market gardeners. If it were not, «loomed expedient. to bring them into competition with the market gardeners. at. least there could be no complaint if they were set to raising: Vegetables which could he usod in other institutions support- ed in whoio or in part. by tho tax~ myers of tho city. Tho mon could be paid for their work and the money turned over to their t‘amil- ies, As matters now stand. the families of imprisoned mon ate the chief sulforors for their crimes. i'pon them tho real ponalty l'alls. As one woman said. "I am hungry and my husband is well fed. My children and I may ho cold. but. ho is sholtoroo'l. Ho is without. respon- sibility: the whole rosponsihility of keeping: tho family together do- ponds upon me. who havo oommitâ€" tod no crime.” Nobody will argue that. this should ho so, Every- body. in fact. will say that. it. is a silamt‘ that. it. is so. At. the Jail Farm tho people of Toronto, it‘ they are in oarnost. about. it. can correct this indefensible condition a Work is the Cure The. remody for idleness of the summer months leaps to the eye and needs no expert to prescribe. It, may be more (litficult. to abolish idleness in the months when out- sido work is not possible. But this lvt'olilem has been met and solved in other penal institutions in this privinco. notably at. Guelph where tho institution is accepted as a model everywhere on this contin- out. Some time ago a start in this direction was made at the Jail Farm where bread was baked and sold to other city institutions at a price loss than it. would be lmught from outside bakeries. This enterprise also enabled the author- itios at the. farm to teach a convict to become a baker. but it. has been abandoned l'or some reason not quite clear. . lankets and boots might. be mado. thus serving the purpose ot' teaching: useful trades A -‘ ‘l‘ l\;!“ ‘;‘. abamlnnmt for some reason not quite (floar. lankejs and boots might tw made. thus serving the purpose of teaching: useful trades tn mvn wtm might Pal‘ll their livâ€" ing at. them wtwu released. at the samn time reducing the oxpmse of their upkm‘p which the citizens now haw to meet.

For many of the in-l mates the Jail Farm is just a place where a man may comfortably loaf through the winter months. He is well fed and the wind Is not. per- mitted to blow upon him He is relieved of all responsibility. and about the only thing he ts deprived of is booze or dope. To counteract this the healthy. indolent living enables him to cultivate a wholly new and valuable thirst. and to engage in his next bout with the rum demon with a delicate and. ap- preciative palate that the habitual drinker wots not of.

One might properly blush for such platitudes were it not for the fact that while they are admit- ted by everybody they are neglect- ed in the operation of the farm For this condition nobody who iknows the interest of Minor Mor- ,rison in the work. and 1115 genuine humanitarian instincts, would think of holding him responmbleâ€" .T.
