Synopsis

Excerpt from Fifteenth Annual Report of the Inspector of Prisons and Public Charities on the Asylums for the Insane and the Asylum for Idiots, of the Province of Ontario: Being for the Year Ending 30th September, 1882

Again, in salaries and wages much larger sums are paid to attendants and servants, and there Is always to be found a much larger number of attendants in proportion to the number of patients. In this respect the average of the same Asylums, from which the above was taken, is shown to be $73. 82 per patient, While In Ontario it is $29. 32. The advantage, the Americans derive from this liberal expenditure is a very great one. They get a much superior class of people for attendants, which fact alone contributes largely to the comfort of the patients.

In furniture and furnishings I find larger expenditures In the United States Generally their Asylums are much more expensively furnished than ours are.

There are also larger sums spent on books, periodicals, newspapers, amuse ments, etc., all of which, while involving larger cost, add so much to the homel'ike character of the Asylums and consequently to the content and well -being of the patients.
