Owing to the fact that the site was not selected until the spring of 1918, and that women were not received until the middle of July, it was impossible to enter upon extensive farm operations. Acting upon the advice of experts from the Connecticut State College for Agriculture, a kitchen garden was planted which furnished the necessary vegetables for the inmates during the summer. In addition to this 300 bushels of potatoes and a considerable stock of beans were available for our use during the winter. Sixty loads of hay and 75 tons of ensilage in addition to several loads of corn-stalks were put into the barns in the autumn. |
