HEALTH CAMP FOR CONSERVATIVES !

Be- Self-Supportins.

e. classes. Mr. Nelson has established
a. fndio. in Southern California, what
be calls = health camp for consump-
tives. We quote the following de.
scription OF this worthy enterprise
with the hope that L may encourage
others to do likewise, for certainly
no more benefccnt work can be under.
taken By anyone:
The camp is located IN a desert
valley, cut of from the ocean By
The mountains. There Is no rain. no
fox. no clouds The winter days are
all warm, the nights comparatively
cold
The camp was established In De
cember. 1902, TO provide in part for
the large number OF c0nsumptives and
other invalids who go to Southern
California. Most OF the invalids have
little means; they can not AFFORD ex-
pensive sanitariums. and are not want
ed by hotels and boarding houses.
TO meet the requirements Of such
patients. Alr. Nelson bought one hun
dred and twenty-five acres OF land adj
Joining the fndio depot. This tract
he has improved BY sinking artesian
wells. and by putting most of the land
under cultivation. In order to give con-
valescents something to do.
Tents. with all necessary equip
ment for sleeping aud taking meals,
have been set up. Land and water
are free 10 those who have their own
outfit. A small rental for tents Is
made to those who can not pay, aud
where necessary. board is given them.
All expenses reed not be more than
from $3.50 to $500 a week.
Work is provided for those who are
able to do H. so that their care does
not become a burden on the camp.
"The camp is situated ia the midst
Of a sandy valley one hundred miles
long and three 10 ten miles wide.
The mountains on each side rise by
degrees 10 four thousand and FIVE
Thousand feet high. In some places in
the foothills there are springs and
vegetation.
IN the valleys most Of the land
has been taken up in the past few
years. The crops OF melons and vege-
tables are early and bring high prices.
From 500 TO $500 an acre is an
ordinary yield. Alfalfa hay is cut ten
times a year. giving twelve TO fifteen
tons an acre.
When the campers get well enough
TO work, they buy or lease a few
acres They a either buy the land
OF the instalmeut plan. or lease it on
shares for such length OF time as de,
