CHARGE ON THE COMMUNITY
Care of Those Afflicted With Tubereu-
losis Plainly Drag on the
General Welfare.

DR. II. l.. Barnes. superintendent OF
the Rhode Island state sanatOrium
has recently demonstrated by some
interesting studies of patients dis
charged as apparently cured from
that institution, that a sanatOrium Is
a sound investment for any state or
city. The gross earnings of l'O OK
patients obtained in 1911 amounted 10
$IO2,152, aud those Of I'll cases IN
1912. to $tf2,02t. BY applying the
same average earnings to all eX-Pa-
tents of the sanat0rium living in 1911
and 1912. Or, barnes concludes that
their income in these two years was
$551 900. This sum is more than three
times the cost of maintenance of the
sanatorium including interest AT \
per cent. on the original investment
and depreciation charges. Dr. Barnes
concludes. however. While insutu-
tions for the cure of tuberculosis are
good investments. there is good Tea-
son for thinking that institutions for
the isolation OF far advanced cases
would be still better investments"

The gap in the Graves Bayou dixie,
about twenty-five miles south of Mem

now and widening rapidly. Water
coming through this break will flow
back into the Mississippi in about five
days through the St. Francis river,
