Blackwell News: There is no demand
in any county in Oklahoma for a county
poor farm. but we believe that a county
hospital would be a blessing. It is Il
conceded fact that better treatment can
be given a patient in a hospital than in
a private residence. While the people of
our country are in a prosperous condi-
ton for a new country, We cannot over
look the fact that but comparatively few
of them can afford the expense of going
away to a hospital for treatment. We
believe that an institution of this kind
should be maintained by the county,
where a nominal fee could be charged pa
tients able to pay, and where the unfor
tunate poor could be treated free"
