Arizona the Healthiest Place
 in the United States
MAS A PROUD RECORD

According to . Washington di patch U the New York Sur, giving 6 dige-, of the report of ,he marine hospital service I T lat year. the Supremacy O the west in sbe matter Of health i. firmly established. The report cover
 l ,435 cities and to~ns having 6 pop ulaiinn Of l,OOJ or more. The town of Eliswor,b, Wiscon.iD, va. the hesltbiest place in the United State. in 1901. Only two persons in that town died. and one Of these desth- was from smalipoI, an uncom mon di.ease iu Ellsworth.
 All of the western states make e good showing. In lowe, for instance the mortality was ss the rate of only s.20 per 1000 Of population. Other western states did still better. For example, North Dakota, according to ,he record had . desth rae of only 5.l7. Oregon Of 7.6O, South Dakota Of $40.
 But Arizona led all the rest. Her death rate was only 3.33 per l 900 This is . proud record Cf itself, and it is especially significant in view of the fact that 6 large percentage o' deaths at many points iu the territory are of invslids who ,ms here too late for recovery.
 Ths death rate in the eastern cities will average close to 20 ger 900. Washington has the highest rate FILA. New Orleans, however, is still higher, with 6 rate of 2I A, and Charl-stowp, South Carolina, far ex- ceeded shis with mortality of 29.I1. Lsredo. Texas with 6 population of l3 420. had deaths at the rate of 36 per 900. thus achisving the unwel- come distinction of being the most town in the United States
 TskiJg the ststes as a whole, the southern states are the most unhesi., thy. The rate iu Louisiana is higher 'hsn anywhere else, averaging 20 65 per 900. Arkansss had q record of lO.o.
