Neuber, a Notary Public in and for said County in the State aforesaid, do hereby certify that P a r k Livingston, President, and H . E.

Given under my hand and Notarial seal this 24th day of February, A.D. J 944- A N K A L. NEUBER Notary Public APPROPRIATION FOR MINOR BUILDING REMODELING AND IMPROVEMENTS (20) On July 28, 1043 (Minutes, page 457), the Board appropriated $5,000 for minor building remodeling improvements individually amounting to not more than $1,000. T h e Comptroller was asked to report as to the use of this fund. His report is submitted herewith. T h e fund is exhausted and there is need for a further allotment. Small projects are continually arising which a r e urgent in character and minor in amount. T h e plan of having a lump sum appropriation to take care of these items in lieu of submitting each item to the Board has proved advantageous and practicable. The Comptroller recommends, and I concur, that an additional appropriation of $5,000 or so much thereof as may be required be made for minor building remodeling and improvements.

BARN O N WRIGHT FARM (21) F a r m No. 4 of the W r i g h t Estate is without adequate buildings, due to losses by fire and windstorm during the past year. A fund of approximately $5,500 is available from insurance settlements to apply toward replacements. The farm has been leased with the understanding that a barn will be constructed as soon as possible. Plans and specifications have been prepared by Professor J. B. Andrews, who is in charge of these farms, and Professor D. G. Carter of the Agricultural Engineering Department. Inquiry has also been made as to available contractors to handle this job. Only one contractor, Mr. B. J. Nelson of Sycamore, Illinois, was found who was in a position to consider it. H e is willing to take a contract on a cost-plus-fixed-fee-basis. Professor Andrews recommends that a contract be made on this basis at an estimated cost of $6,000
