industrial farm shall be paid by the county from which the prisoner
is committed, and the sheriff of the county shall receive the same
mileage, and fees for prisoners committed to a State industrial farm
as are now allowed by law for transporting prisoners committed to the
State penitentiaries. When any prisoner is discharged from a State
industrial farm the superintendent thereof shall procure for him a
railroad ticket to any point to which said prisoner may desire to go
not farther from such State industrial farm than the point from which
he was sentenced, and it shall be the duty of the superintendent, or
his duly authorized agent, to accompany the prisoner to the railroad
station, deliver the ticket to the proper railroad conductor, and
formally release the prisoner on the train which he takes for his
destination.
