The cost of this item for each of the 7,174 convict calendar days of 
the first 6 months of operation was therefore $0.0030. 
> "FUEL AND LIGHT. 
The camp was heated by means of five wood stoves, there being 
two in the sleeping quarters, two in the mess room, and one in the 
office building. The fuel for these stoves was the wood cut from the 
right of way, and as it was cut and prepared by the convicts it does 
not enter as an item into the cost of maintenance. The amount used 
during the first 6 months was approximately 80 cords. 
Light was furnished by kerosene lamps, which were filled and 
cleaned daily by a member of the camp force. During the first 6 
months of operation 4704 gallons of kerosene were used, which, at the 
price of 114 cents per gallon, amounted to $54.10. 
Table 14 gives the complete costs of fuel and light chargeable to the 
maintenance of convicts and also the cost per man per calendar day.
