Beards have grown on the patients faces and they were matted with tuber culous sputum. The beds wre spread with dirty 'covers stained and spotted with sputum and blopd rrora parents who could not expectorate Into the' open cuspidors. It was stated that patients lay an,d died in their own filth.

Bp Flae f or Oonsnmptires, "The authorities in charge at the poor farm stated to me that It was not to be regarded as a place for curing the tubercular poor, but as a place in which they might die, and tha V any treatment given them would only prolong their lives at county expense." 1 - - "There Is "no. place in Oregon whera the hopelessly tubercular poor can be cared for," is a statement coming from the Visiting' Nurse association, whose members say that because of this very lack they are forced to. see people die in - cheerless , quarters and i unsanitary. surroundings when, a : little care -exert ed In time might have restored them to health and usefulness, a man of the city in the office of the Visiting & Kurse" i association Is t::i.;, t.9. i i i :. .

A little rain came up and from the leaks In the roof came water dripping upon the beds occupied bjr patients. . Dr. Matson declared , yesterday not all, kept at the place were to be con sidered hopeless. He added that when he first took charge he found persons there who did not have tuberculosis.

Dr, JIatson's recommendation to county authorities for a change of loca tion may be adopted. It contemplates the construction of a tuberculosis pa vilion adjoining the county hospital, the institution of a diet kitchen and the em ployment of persons trained In the care of consumption. This recommendation is approved by the charitable organlsat tions. He says the cost may be more than $1000 and there will be no further danger to public "health. , . D D, Jackson, superintendent of the county poor farm, says one reason for such deplorable conditions is that the buildings are old and gut of repair.' "I admit that much of the criticism about them Is In order, fcut we are doing the best we- can. We will not occupy them very, long. "We have been unable to get them repaired. - ',' . s Z-Cant .Get Help..- "It is also very hard to get help to attend to then patients there. 1 have I think the .county will g'.a.lly p'.ve the Visit!;'?

"In regard to the egfrs, I went to say that we irlve each patient two eggs every day. They are always fresh, too. The milk is the best we can get It is given the. patients within a half hour after it comes from the cow. "I don't think Dr. Matson should have made a kick without first seeing me. He could have been courteous enough to inform me of things he finds objection able. I don't think Dr. Geary has been out here for at least six months, either.
