A child of poor parents had reached the
age of fifteen years. She was afflicted with
a deformity of one hand and one foot The
matter was called to the attention of a
specialist who was visiting the city of La
mar. The child was brought to the Lamar
hospital where an operation corrected the
deformity of the foot and resulted in
marked improvement in the hand. No fees
were charged by either the specialist or the
hospital for the service rendered. An OPP
GRAFTON of this nature necessitated hospital
service. This family had no money to travel
to a hospital, pay for the services of a spec
ialist, or pay for hospital service. This
child has been helped because of the small,
inadequate hospital which has been main
tanned in Lamar.
If that was your child-wouldn't It be
worth forty cents year to your

Why We Need a Memorial Hospital!

A local doctor called the Lamar hospital
nd stated that he had an emergency case
. be operated upon. All of the rooms were
coupled but the head nurse offered the use
If the office. These people were able to pay
however, and wanted private room and
special nurse and rs it was impossible for
the Lamar hospital to provide this on ac-
count OF being crowded with patients, the
relatives OF the person who was wanting
hospital service decided to go to Kansas
City The man died on the trip there.
Sometimes it is too far to hospital.

A woman living seventy miles southeast
of Lamar had abscess of the brain. She
was young married woman, only 10 years
of age. She was partly paralyzed and suf-
fering from frequent commissions and APP
parently dying when received at the Lamar
hospital. The surgeons opened her skull,
drained the abscess and two weeks later she
left the hospital well.
A useful life was saved in this case by

A Mexican case. Poor, ignorant, without
friends, but a human being just the same.
This Mexican was sick. He had been sick
for several days. There was no place for
him to get treatment that he knew of. He
had no friends who were wealthy enough
or cared enough about him to send him to
u good hospital. The little old Mexican
was going to die and he knew it. The other
Mexicans about him also knew it and as
they didn't want him to die right there they
finally got him over to the little inadequate
hospital at Lamar. A surgeon operated for
gangrenc of the appendix and general per-
itonitis and the Mexican recovered

There are hundreds of cases which might
be mentioned which have come to the little
old hospital at Lamar during the past three
years. Many people will remember the case
of the young girl who swallowed a sand burr
and of the operation that was necessary to
remove it from the throat How can any
body know of these cases and realize how
hospital service coupled with care and surg
cry have saved lives of little children and
men and women right here in our own coun-
ty and still be against modern hospital.

young man who was struck by falling roof
and suffered broken back and recovered
through proper treatment at the Lamar hos
pital. 1t is doubtful if he could have afford
ed a trip to Denver or Pueblo or if he could
have been taken that far
All of these cases are folks who live in
and around Prowers county. They know that
hospital service is worth something.

Effects of the Long Dry Spell, Many

of Them Decaylng on the Trees
Farmers in this section are suffer-
ing considerable losses by the long
drought, according to reports receiv-
ed here this week. Apples and pears
are showing the effects of this long
dry spell, many of them decaying on
the trees. Many farmers, because of
the hard dry ground, have been delay
ed in plowing for wheat. Dean Charles
A. McCue, head of the Agriculture
Department of the University of Del
aware, stated that unless there is rain
in few days the situation will be
serious. He said the ground is too
hard and try to work for planting,
just when preparations should be
made for getting the wheat in the
ground. The ground has been baked
so hard by the hot rays of the sun
that it is practically impossible to
cultivate. Farmers are idle and spend
ing their time gathering about in
front of the little country stores dis
cussing the situation, and scanning the
blue skies for some sign of rain.
Unless a soaking rain falls during the
next week the situation will be criti-
cal. Already the grass in the pas
lures is becoming brown and wither-
ed, and many fields usually green are
taking on the appearance of desert
lands.
1t is difficult for the city dweller,
reveling in the prolonged summer
brought on by the past few weeks OF
sunshine and clear skies, to realize
just what the continuance of the dry
weather means to the farmers. A
first the fine weather was as welcome

Zinc SURPLUS.

For the first time since the armis-
tice four years ago surplus stocks OF
zinc in this country are at a normal
level. May saw the elimination of
steadily increasing shipments with a
movement to consumers of 3S,73S tons
of metal. compared with 34,O40 tons
during April, the largest monthly
movement in two years. During May
production was 27,41s tons, or 1873
tons less than shipments. At the
beginning of May surplus stocks
amounted to SLIPS tons and on the
first of the current month this sur
plus had been reduced to 40,4O9 tons.
Just IL months ago surplus supplies
of zinc in this country amounted to
about 10000 tons, the largest tonnage
of metal on hand in the history of the
industry. In less than a year, there
fore, this surplus has been reduced
nearly $4,000 tons. and at 40,409 tons
is virtually at a normal level
