Sanitation.

For the preservation of healthful
condition of the body correct sani
tary conditions must be observed.
The air we breathe should not be i'm
pregnated with foul odors and noxious
gases emitted from decaying vegetable
or animal substances. 3,. Impaired
health can hardly be restored in an
atmosphere where with every breath
is inhaled these poisonous gases.
Hospitals for the care of the sick,
sanitariumS and even pest houses,
which are hospitals for the treatment
of some prevailing epidemic should be
as far removed as possible from these
baneful influences. That these truths
should have been overlooked or
ignored in locating pest housefor
Cresco is surprising to every one
familiar with the conditions essential
to the restoration of health. If such
a place was needed some healthful
location should have been selected
isolated from the public travel, and
from the residences of the people. In
such place person sent there would
have an even chance for life, butin a
garbage lot, filled with dead horses,
hogs and cattle, but half buried, the
tide is strong against him.

| A short time ago a compromise was
arranged whereby the city dropped its
suit against the county for its share
of the one mill county road fund tax,
in consideration of 800 in work to be
done at the expense of the county and
a REIMBURSEMENT. in the future TO the
city of its proportionate share of the
road tax. The city has arranged to
use this sum and also the amount of
this years tax, amounting to about
$500, in grading the newly opened
streets about town and the streets on
the south side which have never been
graded. w. G.. Fish and crew now
