ONLY 35 PATIENTS
AT HOSPITAL HERE

operations last week which filled

porarily, but these patients soon
departed.
The fact that the mines are not
running has reduced the custo-

usually there for treatment Of in
juries. The greater number of
these patients are generally taken
to the State Hospital, but Cook
Hospital also receives many cases.
Thus far only one typhoid pat

spring. The institution is usually
prepared to take care of a NUM-
Der of typhoid cases during the
warm months but Fairmonters
