Nevada, Utah, Wyoming and Mis-.
sissippi are the only states in the
United States which have made no hos.
pital or sanatorium provision for con-
sumptives, says The National Assoeia-
ton for the Study and Prevention of
tuberculosis in bulletin issued to-day.
At the same time the Association as
serts that, while there are $4,000 beds
for tuberculosis patients in other
states, this number is very inadequate,
hardly more than one for every eight
or ten needy patients being provided.
Some states have less than thirty beds,
and in not 9 single one is there a suf-
feient number available.
The bulletin points that, although
the death rate from tuberculosis has
declined steadily for the last twenty
i've years, a marked increase in hos
pital and sanatorium beds must be
made before a rate of even Of 5
deaths per 1000 population can be

death rates in this country range from
eight or nine per 1000 living to as
high as IS or 40, with the average
around Is or 16, according to the latest
reports of the Bureau of the Census.
The National Association estimates
that there are over a million eonsump-
tives in the United States, Of whom
probably at least one-third are unable
to provide for themselves the neces-
sary treatment at home. Most Of these
cases are q menace to the health of
their families and associates, and
should be in special hospitals. At the
present time, however, even If every
case were known, it would not be pos
sible to provide accommodation for
more than one in eight or ten. The

At the end of the first three months
Of the present year called attention
to the fact that IA lynehingS had taken
place. Six months have now passed
and 10 additional lynehings have oe-
CURED. For the same period a year
ago there were SO lynchings, making
a reduction of u as compared with
last year. The smaller number indi-
Gates a growing regard for law and
order.
In connection with two of these
lynehings the conduct Of the mob, &C
eording to the newspaper reports, was
exceedingly barbarous and inhuman.
In one case it is stated that the mob
went 50 far as to cut of the ears,
fingers, toes and lips of the individual
in order to keep them for souvenirs.
In stin another case it is stated that
the mob dragged the victim along the
streets, beat the body with erowbar,
then boiled the body in oil, then set
fire to it, then strung the body up to
an electric light pole in the centre of
the town in the glare of the electric
lights and shot over 1000 bullets into
the body. 1t is further stated that
5000 persons, including many young
women, witnessed these acts. So far
no person has been arrested.

AMERICAN FoREsTERs HELP
PALESTINE.

An agricultural colony in Palestine
has just applied to the United States
forest service for help in planting
trees to bind the drifting sands Of the
Mediterranean. The colony is near
Jafa, or Yafa, the ancient JOppa Of
the Bible, and there is being devel-
oped in connection with It seaside
resort, with hotel villas, bath houses
and gardens.
The experts Of the service point out
that the reclamation Of sand dunes il
not a serious problem in the eastern
United States because the prevailing
winds are from the land and the sand
Is blown into the sea. On the west
coast the situation is more serious.
The most notable example Of reclaimed
sand areas there is furnished by Col.

grasses, acaeias, and, later, trees and
shrubs have converted sand wastes into
pleasure grounds Of great beauty.
