The first circulars to be distributed
10 Kansas voters by the state board OF
health in its campaign for the estab-
lishment OF a state sanitarium for the
cure of consumptives will be mailed
next week. II Is the purpose OF the
board to conduct campaign for edu-
cation among the voters and to leave
the completion OF the work to be done
by the society's Legislative committee.
S. j. Crumbine. secretary OF the board.
has made an investigation Of climatic
conditions in western Kansas and finds
that the temperature and altitude
form combination which make II a
desirable place to establish the ilrs.
sanitarium. His circular, which Is
now in the hands of the printer, has
the following to say on the subject:
THE climate conditions of western
Kansas are ideal for tuberculosis
sanitarium and camp. For the last
five years the mean annual temperature
as recorded by the weather observer at
the Dodge City government station Is
as follows: 1899, $40 degrees: 1900.
SCI degrees; 1901. $50 degrees; 1902,
54.5 degrees; 1903, $50 degrees. The
per cent. of possible amount of sun
shine for the last five years is as fol-
lows: 1899. 6S per cent; 1900, 10 per
cent; 1901, Il per cent; 1902, 81 per
cent; 1903, "a per cent. With pure ali
and water, equitable temperature,
foods of sunshine and relatively dry
atmosphere with an altitude of from
$500 feet at Dodge City and rapidly as
cending until at the state line 1t Is
close to $500 feet, the conditions are
most favorable for the cure Of tubercu-
losis, especially with such means and
methods as this great state could pro-
vide. Sanatoria for consumptives are
now recognized as an important factor
In the treatment of the consumptive
poor. Removed from homes where
poverty forbids even the bare necessi-
ties Of life, they are placed In an In
stitution where they can have plenty
Of good. nutritious food, where they
are under good medical care, which IL
aided by natures two great remedies
for consumption, namely, fresh air and
sunshine. Here they are taught how
to be clean and when they return to
their homes they will teach their asso-
ciates how to be clean also"
