TuberCular Institute


The Oregon State tuberculosis Hos.
pital was established by act of the leg.
islature in 1909. It's primary object is
to provide treatment for tubercular pa
tients, and secondarily to educate these
and through them the public in the care
of persons afflicted with the great
white plague.
1t is to be attempted to segregate
those in advanced stages from their
families and thus eliminate 80 far as
possible all danger Of injecting them.
Perhaps the greatest reason for this
hospital that is the immediate reason,
is that those in advanced stages, who
are unable TO care for themselves and
have no one to give them attention may
be cared for by the state at large, and
at least have their passing out made as
comfortable as possible. Humanity has
some time since answered that great
question: cam / my brothers. keep
eri' and has answered it affirmatively.
IL has discovered that it must be It's
brother's s keeper in order to take care
Of its own. It's most effective teachers
have been the many infectious diseases,
that must be quarantined in order that
society may not suffer. The human
family has discovered that it cannot sit
idly by while disease ravages its neigh.

self II has been taught by selfishness,
but II has learned its lesson and now
does through broadened charity what II
before did for self.protecton.
There are three great scourges before
which humanity stands almost helpless.
They are tuberculosis, venereal, AMI
cancer. Perhaps it should be said two
rather than three, for Ehrlck has found
the serum that will in time practically
eradicate the second Of the diseases
named and the enthusiastic scientists
we all so much uaugh at, will in time
also discover the serum that will free
the world Of its greatest scourge-tu-
berculosis.

can be made toward reducing the raw.

and stubborn fight is being waged

for then, too, the walls are done away
with and the patient is required to sleep
on open pOrches. Warmth and light,
good food, regular habits and always
plenty of fresh air, these are the great
bases on which the other treatment is
built up. DR.. Bellinger enters heart
and soul into this work, each patient s
case is studied, his condition watched
as carefully as if he was near and
dear relative, instead of a patient,
This institution differs from most of
che others of the state for attendance is
compulsory, but is free to all. That
this is not generally known seems Ger.
tain from the light attendance. For those
who are unable to provide that care
and comfort that are so necessary in
the struggle against the white plague,
there could be no greater boon given by
the state than this haven of refuge,

in charge of DR.. G. c. Bellinger, who is
devoting his entire time to studying
and fighting this disease. When he
took charge there were 2S patients and
there are now about 40. AS the splen-
did results obtained become known this
attendance will be largely increased,
for the results have been far better
than was even hoped. That positive and
permanent cures have been made seems
probable. We say probable, because it
is impossible to say more than this of
any tuberculosis case. Many have been
greatly benefited, and it might be said
that nearly all who were not in advanc-
ed stages of the disease have shown
marked improvement, and have return
ed to their homes to continue there the
treatment learned at the hospital and
teach the same to others afflicted

One of salem's Beautiful Homes.

The sale of land in Marion county
this year have not been so large, but
there is great Importance attached to
this fact. Many of the large farms
have been cut up in small tracts since
the first of the year and the sales have
been confined to the small farmers
Ideal climatic conditions which have
prevailed in and around Marion county
so far this winter have been largely re.
sponsible for the brisk land sales in the
farming districts, and especially have
the newcomers been scrambling for
pieces Of land in this county.

and the local meat markets could hard
y be improved upon.
DR.. Miles states that, in the event he
retained by the city, he has other
clans for other important improvements
to the sanitary conditions of Salem
which will not only place the Capital
City on top with the highest score, but
cause her to be pointed out as being
model municipality for cleanliness.

In making this announcement of the

with feeling of pride that the mod

and have pursued have met with the
approval Of all those who have sought
our services during that time.

far as possible the patient is kept in
the open air. Just as much sunshine as
can be crowded into his life is given
him, walls are eliminated so far as pos
sible and Gods air, pure and fresh, is
the medicine, 1t is the same at night,

Among the many new homes complet-
ed this year is a beautiful residence
owned by DR.. W. A. Cusick in Fair
mount Park addition, south of the city.
This fine home stands on the very brow
of the highest hill within miles of Sa-
lem and the view enjoyed by the owner
is very interesting. The $4,000 resi-
dence of Charles X. Spaulding, Court
street, is also imposing.
There is hardly an addition to Salem
but that is being laid out in city lots
and new houses being planned to occu-
py the sites There are city additions
in good large numbers around this city
and, according to those handling the
dwelling spots are in great
demand now. The prices for building

lots range from 5000 to 5000 in the sub
urbs and lots situated nearer to the city
are held very high. Land deals have
been unusually brisk so far this winter
considering this time of the year is not
exactly appropriate for building, and
there are many sales being made of
home sites TO people who are making
some extensive plans for the constuc.
tion of two and three story dwellings
in the near future.
Notwithstanding the fact winter is
now upon Salem, the carpenters are
still busy, either completing the con.
struction of new cottages or adding on
to the old ones, and while there are no
very great structures being put up at
the present, the contractors and plumb
ers are busily engaged.
City Beautiful.
The people surely have something to
be proud of in the fact that the capital
Of the state stands second to none as
being the cleanest and most sanitary
city in Oregon. This flattering score
was made by Salem mostly through the
efforts of City Health Officer o. b.
Miles and his deputy, Mr., Hartwell.
During the past year the city health
officer has been working diligently
forming definite plan whereby he
could encourage the friendly co-opera.
tion Of the people in cleaning up the
city in its every nook and corner and SO
well has he succeeded in his efforts, the
state board of health, the state dairy
and food commissioners and the county
court Of this county have paid DR.. Miles
some high compliments,
Prior to the work which DR.. Miles has
carried on, this city's sanitary condition
was dangerously poor The alleys un.
clean and Uttered with cans, paper and
decayed substances the suburban COW
stables and horse barns in an unhealthy
condition and n constant menace to
their community and, in fact, Salem
could get hardly a single favorable
point in going down the list Of require.
ments necessary to the establishment Of
a perfectly sanitary city. Taking these
points up one by one in n most careful
manner, Ueaelth Officer Miles soon had
them all under his control and shortly
after, beginning the first Of this year.
he not only had a perfect system Of
cleaning Salem, but had the sincere and
willing cooperation Of almost every
business man, resident and factory man
ager in the city and today, with the fine
record made for cleanliness to spur the
citizens on toward giving Salem the
highest score possible; there is little
doubt now but what the city health Of.
GERS work has come to stay and that
the people will respond to the cleanup
call cheerfully in the future
More Work Ahead
Perfect stores are another source Of
pride to Salem citizens. Clean, whole.
some wares are found in every grocery
store and meat market in Salem since
the proprictors have been advised that
sanitation must be given close attention.
According to the state Inspectors, the
slaughter houses around this city are
now in the finest Of sanitary condition,
