COUNTY HOSPITAL IS MODEL OF ORDER
 AND CARE
MANY IMPROVEMENTS PLANNED FOR CONSERVATION IN
 NEAR FUTURE
TUBERCULkR CASES ISOLATED
GROUNDS TO BE GRADED, PENCE & BUILT AND FLOWERS AND
 GRASS PLANTED

Since the new county hospital was thrown open for occupancy in barely completed state, last December, mum. Der of improvements have been planned and partially carried out which will make the local hospital one of the most complete in this part of the country.
 To increase the amount of available space for private patients in the insti- tuition, kitchen and dining room is now in process of construction immc. diately in the rear of the main build ing. This work will be completed in a few weeks, after which all culinary work win be performed outside of the main building.
 The dining room will be 16 X IS feot,
 the kitchen 13x IT feet with good sized pantry. These rooms will be housed within building of concrete bricks, connected by roofed porch with the main building.
 The present culinary quarters are on the second foor When they are re- moved, there will be room for four more patients in the private wards, ae- commodating fifteen in. all.
 The operating room is model among establishments of it's kind. For the To- cal hospital it is ample in size, sanitary throughout and contains all of the latest appliances along surgical lines. In addition there is a steriliz;ng room, in which the different surgical instru- ments may be thoroughly cleansed from all possible infectious germs. The ster Hiking instruments are not in operation as yet, as they were installed for the use of gas, which is not at present avail able. Within a short time however, changes will be made by which alcohol will furnish the required heat This
 part of the equipment is also complete in every detail. a r
 At the present time nineteen patients kept at the expense of the county, oe : cupy quarters at the hospital. There is provision for twenty, and in an emer- gency, twenty-three can be accommo- dated c "
 Under the direction of Matron Mrs. r. A. Phillips, the new hospital is q model of order and cleanliness. When the establishment was inspected ycster- day by the Silver Belt, there was no fault which could be found with the
 hospital. The patients, too, seemed to be entirely satisfied with the treatment they receive.
 Among other Improvements which are Contemplated is the erection of two sep aratc buildings for the accommodation of tubercular patients. They will ac- eommodate eight patients. The contract has been let for one of the buildings and the other will probably be arranged | for later. s
 In addition, open air quarters are planned for patients of the same class. The importance of keeping those who have been attacked by the white plague isolated from the other patients is rec. ognized and steps will be taken accord ingly.
 As fast as the work can be carried out the grounds will be graded and put in shape for the planting of grass and flowers. handsome fence will be built around the grounds, with a retaining wall where necessary.
