County Hospital aud Farm.

OMAHA. July 26,-To the Editor OF The
Bee: The county commissioner now have
under consideration some questions con-
corning the county hospital and farm that
should be considered thoroughly and
cautiously before any decisive action is
taken upon them.
Some Of the questions that arise in the
minds OF citizens whose attention has been
called to this matter are: How much Of
the farm is under lease {. the Field club?
What are the terms Of the lease? Can the
land be sold to good advantage. subject
to this lease7 Is there not a strong prob
ability that the land would bring at least
% per cent more two years later than
it would nowt
The persons who are cared for by the
county on this farm, as they are commonly
classed. are the INDECENT. the diseased and
the insane. 1t Is true that the best manner
Of caring for these people requires three
separate places or buildings; but there
should be a large piece Of ground with
each building, not a stingy little yard. And
u should be large enough to afford con-
siderable opportunities for cultivation Of
the soil.
One very important truth pertaining to
the care of people seems to be entirely over
lOOked, or ignored by most puDllC ottlCcrS
and physicians, namely, that the condition
Of mind and body depend largely upon
having or not having some useful work
to do. 1t should be the invariable rule
Of every institution maintained by the state
or county or city, that so far as possible
opportunities for work be furnished, and
that every person be required to do as
much as Is consistent with proper care Of
the health.
I notice that some persons are saying that
those who are kept at the county hospital
las II is called) are not able to work, and
IL they were they would not be there;
and yet one OF the chief complaints about
the present arrangement or situation
seems to be that the place is so near
the city that many Of the inmates walk
into the city, for purposes that cannot be
approved. The distance to the central part
Of the city Is about two and a half miles.
II a person can walk five miles for the
sake Of gratifying a desire to see the
sights, or OF getting some firewater, is
he not able to DO at least a little work of
some kind?
Ny impression is that tAis institution, like
many others, has all the modern facilities
for making people INDECENT, lazy, sick and
insane, and scarcely any influence tending
the other way. BERIAH r. COCHRAN.
