NEW MEXICO FOR CONSERVATIVES.

DIR. j. H. Tyndale, an eminent physician
of New York city, who has devoted many
years to the study of cllmatology and
lung diseases, has issued pamphlet en-
titled, "New Mexico; It's Climatic Ad-
vantages for Consumptives," from which
the following is taken: 'The climate of
southern New Mexico is dry, mild and
equable; no dew falls; the rainfall is only
about twelve inches yearly. The winters
are mild and pleasant; of course there are
few cold snaps occasionally, but not
disagreeably SO. Snow seldom falls in
the valleys, and when it does it melts as
fast as it falls, never remaining on the
ground more than an hour or SO. The
summers arc cool and pleasant; the
sultry, suffocated heated terms of most
of the other states are unknown. per-
son can sleep out of doors lowing to
the absence of dew the year round, ex-
cept in rainy weather, of which there is
comparatively very little. Il The
possibility of a full and unobstructed
sun bath is given in the number of per-
fectly fair days, which gives US not only
length of time, but with such diathermacy
of atmosphere as exists in those regions,
great intensity of sunlight. The statis-
tics of the United States army reports
demonstrate the important fact that New
Mexico has the lowest ratio of respiratory
diseases to be found in the country, tho
cases being 1.S per 1000, while in various
other localities the proportion ranges
, from 2.3 to 60. striking evidence Of
the curative character of this wonderful
climate is found in the army records of
the rebellion. Among the troops origin
ally sent to New Mexico in 1861, there
were some $50 cases of catarrh. At the
y expiration of year no cases were re-
ported, and all who had the disease and
Symington said that in the residence OF
twelve years.in New Mexico he has seen
but two cases of phthisis among the
natives"
Hundreds of other opinions could be
added, but these bear directly on the Pc
cos and are from professional men Of high
standing and ability.
