patients should be sent to the arid re-
gions so soon as there is evidence of IN
fiction from the tubercle bacillus, and
should be made to remain there until
they are well, or until it is apparent that
the case is hopeless.
"Many physicians in the east order
patients to California for the winter,
apparently with a view of sending them
to dry climate. The relative humidity
ii southern California is as great, and
in some instances greater, than that GA
the Atlantic coast, and many of the best
physicians in California regularly send
| their tubercular and asthmatic patients
to Tucson. California is a beautiful
country, but the fogs which come IN
rom the sea, and the emanations from
| the vast irrigated regions, make it far
inferior to tho inland desert regions for
phthisical patients. think it may De
assumed as, a general rule that wher-
/ ever there is irrigation there is d high
degree of relative humidity. and patients
suffering from pulmonary phthisia
should never be sent to an irrigated dis
trict. Indeed, some of the California
physicians have declared that irrigation
and malaria go together
"The city ot Tucson has, in my opin-
ion, advantages as a health resort
which can not be equalled anywhere In
North America. know of no locality
where such a moderate winter climate
and such low degree of relative humid
itv are combined with tie same latitude
and altitude. It rs no longer considered
imperative to send tubercuiar patients
to an altitude of 5000 feet, or over. In
fact. clinical experience has proven that
more frequently patients required to be
sent to an altitude or less, rather than
more than 5000 feet. The altitude of
Tucson is 2, 400 feet. and that seems to
be amply high for all but the most ex-
ceptional cases. The city is situated In
a basin near the underground Santa
Cruz river. It is completely walled IN
bv massive mountain ranges. To the
north is the Santa Catalina range; to
the east, the Rincon; to the south, the
Santa Rita; and on the west, the Tue
son. Each of these ranges has an Hlti-
!: tude of 5000 feet at least. Mount Le-
: mon, the highest peak of the Catalnas,
has an elevation of 10000 feet, and
Mount Wrightson in the Santa RItas,
reaches an altitude of nearly IL, 600
feet.

Wbere the Climate IS pure
Hnd the Hly is Balmy.&

Exceedingly Small Rainfall.-At Tue
son the rainfall for the whole year is only
about eleven inches. Some years it is
not even as much as that. During the
nine months, October to June inclusive,
l894-5 there were but twenty-five cloudy
davs end nine of those were in one
month
n.perature.-During the months OF
une, July and August the average tenn
perature is about 80 degrees, but there
so little humidity in the atmosphere
that no inconvenience is experienced.
There being but limited irrigation in the
,eighborhood of Tucson there is no
humidity produced in that way, as is
notably the case in the neighborhood of
Phoenix, where agricultural develop
ment has through the aid of irrigation
reached a great stage, The fall, winter
and spring months can be compared
with the Italian cline Flowers bloom
during the entire winter months.
Wonderful Dryness of Climate.-There
is nothing more remarkable about the
climate of Tucson than it's dryness. 1t
is phenominal. There is no such thing as
what is called sultry weather as in the
east. A recent visitor to Tucson Joking
" remarked that mot even the rains
seemed damp" 1t is fact that the et-
feet of heavy shower is observable for
but a few hours. III this dry climate
sunstrokes are unknown. The dry All
induces exceedingly rapid evaporation Of
the abundant perspiration. AS mat
ter of course the supply of fluid must be
maintained, hence one drinks great
deal of water here.
Good Water at Tucson.-Everyone /;
aware of the Importance of good water
: and this Tucson certainly has. More
over. there are two ice factories which
supply any quantity of beautiful ice.
Effect of dry Climate on Temperature
I Another effect of the extremely dry eli
: nate is that the sensible temperature
tar less than that recorded by the ther
mometer would indicate. Some CLAIM
: that there is a difference of as mach a
& dtteeu degrees between the sensible ten
: perature and that recorded by the thel
: mOmeter.

Immediately seek the proper climate tav-
orable to their condition.
"The climate of Colorado has been re-
commended for it's beneficial effects for
consumption; my long residence there
gave me ample and sufficient opport-
unity of Judging climatic conditions
there existing during the summer months
The mountainous portions of Colorado
undoubtedly have beneficial effect on
bercuic sis subjects. but cannot re
commend Colorado during the fall and
winter, as the changes are often severe,
becoming raw and cold within few
hours, and as these are atmospheric con-
ditions to be avoided, it would not be
advisable to spend these seasons there.
Those having peculiar type of consti-
tuition with a hereditary tendency to
consumption would do well to avail
themselves of an opportunity and come
here and remain exempt from disease.
1T is a fact that those born here'o
