Or. A. W. Oicott. health officer OF Tue
sou. says:-"The climate OF Tucson is
characterized by pure, dry, invigorating
air: a small amount Of rainfall, and an
eyer-shining sun. 1t is surrounded by
mountains which cut off the chilling
winds of winter. and the dreaded sand
storms OF most ard regions. Its south
eru position gives il mild winter CHI
mate These conditions render pleasant
an out-of-door life the entire year. and
nermit those suffering from lung and
bronchial diseases daily exercise and hte
in the open air. This treatment. III spite
of numberless cures for consumption, ex
nloited monthly. stands first in the con
hdence of the people and OF the medical
nrofession as the best single means
known Of combating the dread disease,
tuberculosis. The out-of-door iite. with
nroner medical treatment, has afforded
relief to numbers of sufferers who are be-
vond hope OF cure. and cured many IN
the earlier stages of consumption.
