Meeting. Is Scheduled For
Mankaie on January IA;
Object Sought


II is the wish of the Blue Earth
county tuberculosis sanitarium com
mission to hear from the boards of
all the counties adjacent TO Blue
Earth ON or before January 5. on the
question of setting a date for con-
ference on the prosect of establishing
a joint county sanitarium
The Blue Earth county board some
time ago instructed the sanitarium
commission, consisting of II. c. Ho.
falling of Mapleton, William Just of
Rapidan. George Norman OF Lake
Crystal aud Fred Kron and nr. A.
I. Schmitt OF Manka,o, TO invite the
counties that bound Blue Earth ceun-
~ to join with this county, in the
manner provided by law, for the
establishment or a tuberculosis sani-
tarium.
The counties thus invited are Brown,
NicOllet, waseca, lie Saeur. Faribault,
Martin and Watonwan. These. togeth-
er with Blue Earth, make eight coun.
ties in all.
Three Delegates to Meeting.
Following this plan. the Blue Earth
county sauitarium commission has ar
ranged for each of these counties 10
send three delegates, these delegates
being members OF the various boards,
to meet i'm the court house at Man
kato on January II. for the purpose
of sscertaining which of the coun-
ties will unite with Blue Earth county
in this project. and TO take preliniin-
airy steps leading TO the early con-
struction of point county sanitarlum.
The county board of Le Sueur
county has already advised the CON-
mission that the delegates of that
county board will not be able to
meet Mt Mankato on January IA, and
has requested that different date
be set for the Mankato meeting. 1t
has therefore been decided to change
the date of this meeting to some
time convenient for all OF the eight
counties. This date is to be decided
OF January ), on which date all the
county boards are expected TO be i'm
session. IL is probable that the meet
ing will be held some afternoon be.
ginning at two O'Clock.
Too much For One County.
For one county to attempt he prof
eCt of erecting. equipping and main
tanning the new sanitarium is not
thought advisable. With all of these
eight counties going into the project
together. the matter can be handled
in n much more efficient way. II
will then be possible TO employ a
competent and experienced superin.
tendent. IL will be necessary 10 have
plenty of ground for the buildings,
and for the production of butter,
eggs. milk, and other much needed
products. Patients who are able to
work will thus have an opportunity
of putting their energies into useful
labor I'm the garden, the orchard and
elsewhere.
The location. size and other points
in connection with the project will
have to he decided after this confer
ence, for which arrangements are
now being made.
