culosis sanitarium project, and the
very general and thorough discussion
which followed its reading.
AS may not be known to the
general public. we now have a law
authorizing the county board of each
county in the state to appropriate
money for the establishment and
maintenance Of a sanitarium for it's
tuberculosis patients, and to encour-
age such sanitarium, the state will
pay So per week toward the ex-
pense Of caring for all cases unable
to pay for themselves. Contrary to
existing public opinion, it is now
definably known that tuberculosis in
its earliest stages is, in the great
majority of cases, a durable disease
if properly handled, and that even
we'll advanced cases often recover, if
given a proper fighting chance.
The main object of county sani-
tarium would be to take each case in
its earliest. possible stage and care
for it until improved, and more
especially to teach each individual,
not only the value to himself of
proper care and treatment, but the
means and value of sanitary precau-

disease. so that he may go back and
