making arrangements to secure such
equipment from the Third Oregon
Regiment, to be mustered out next
Monday. He will also secure enough

pony breeder of near Woodburn,
visited the Fair Grounds yesterday

and breeder of thoroughbred draft and
hackney horses, with farm and stables
at Gresham, Oregon, came in with the
first carload of his horses, to be ex-
hibited at the State Fair, yesterday
and the balance of his big exhibit will
arrive within day or two This is
the first time that Mr.. Ruby will have
made an exhibit of his champion stock
for seven years and he will occupy the
whole of barn 49,. Several of Mr..
Ruby's animals will be entered in the
different classes in the big Horse

Tie free-camping grounds at the
Fair Grounds have been taking on the
appearance of a tented city within the
past week There are over so camp
'ers already on the grounds and they
are arriving daily in considerable num-
bers. The reservations have been very
heavy this year and the indications
are that there will be a greater popula
tion camped upon the grounds for the
Fair than of many years. The accom-
mOdations are very much improved and
hundreds of families from the city
and all parts of the valley and state
make it a point to camp at the Fair
Grounds during Fair week where they
enjoy pleasant social intercourse and
reunions

AN EVIDENCE OF PROSPERITY

that instead of being calamity the shortage is an
evidence of prosperity and that the shippers OF California

It is cheering to know as do now that it has been

evidence of that prosperity the East has been enjoying
for two years and which just beginning to be felt

IL is readily agreed by all that the sick must be made well. It is general ly agreed that those who can pay should consult reputable physician for advice and treatment when sick. But for the vast army of those who have barely enough and less than enough to live on, some agency should be created whereby this advice and treatment can be had free Of charge.

The visiting nurse is a valuable as set in combating the spread of dis ease. 50 far as it is known only one anti-tuberculosis visiting nurse is em- ployed in this state. She is employed by the Arkansas Society for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis and works in Little Rock, her salary being paid out of funds contributed by the capitol city.
 There Is no reason why more com. munities should not have a visiting nurse. No town or village is too small To take this means of keeping we'll. If town Is so small that funds for this purpose cannot be procured the county should and could undertake this work. So often We hear from small towns, We don't need a nurse here. We don't have the problem of large city The smallest commu- mites have been found to have disease breeding places. In fact just because the good citizens of the small towns consider their own community above reproach, these conditions go on un- abated and unattended to.
 In small towns as in the larger cit. ies are found hotbeds of tuberculosis. The little shacks with no sanitary conveniences, housing large families are tne breeding places of disease. For these places tend to weaken the individuals living therein and disease germs lodging in their systems find a ready resting place. In southern communities, especially, where large negro population obtains tuberculosis is the greatest danger.
 Statistics show that among the ne- gro race tuberculosis mortality IS very high. and as these negroes are ignorant they help to spread the dis ease by their careless habits Of course they should be saved They are needed for certain forms of labor. But as We neglect them we increase the danger of the white population,

for we mingle freely with the colored. We do business with them, they come to our stores and offices, they enter our homes. they do our washing, they come in contact with us in hundreds of ways, and if we are not in good physical condition we contract the dis ease which they spread
 The visiting nurse helps to coun- teraCt the danger. She visits the homes, nurses the sick. instructs them how to be careful, and restores them to health under the direction of a com- petent physician But she is more important AS an educational factor. For her work is not confined to those already i'll. She works among the well. spreading the gospel of clean lives, good living, sanitation and health. She visits the homes, locates sources of disease and shows how to eradicate them. She is both a medi- cal missionary and a protecting angel
 After all, health Is cheaper than sickness. Let us say a poor laboring man earns only $500 a year. If he Is sick for this length of time he not only loses this much, but his family must be contributed to by the chari- tably inclined, to say nothing of the pain and anguish experienced by the entire family. Multiply this by the many such unfortunate families and you nave the minimum annual cost to your community. A visiting nurse would cost from $500 to S1000 year She, therefore, represents an actual saving of money But more import ant she will help make yours a healthy community and thereby aid in it's de- yelopment.
 Those interested in this or any other phase of anti-tuberculosis work should communicate al once with the Secre- tary of the Arkansas Society for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis, City Hall Little Rock, for further in- formation and literature,

 There should by all means be a dis pensary in every town in Arkansas. If there were we would have fewer cases of tuberculosis, for tuberculosis is always a result of a rundown con. dition which renders the body suscep- tible to this disease. A dispensary Is easy to organize. for in every com munity there are enough physicians who readily give their time and ser vices to the poor Dispensaries are also useful in stopping the spread of contagious diseases. so the community can also know how il is progressing from a health standpoint. It is there fore a sort of health barometer
