The Telegram has received a very handsomely printed pamphlet of sev- enty-two pages, containing the first annual report of the State game and fish department, E. Z. Jcnes, com- missioner. We have gone through this report with considerable care, for the department is a new one only. created last year and as it is intended to conserve an asset of im- mense value to the people of Flor- ida—our game and fish recources— every citizen of the State should feel a lively interest in the subject. The Telegram has recently published the figures of the income and outgo of this department and they show a handsome balance to the credit of the State. Commissioner Jones brings genuine enthusiasm, intelli- gence, energy and conscience to his work and it seems to us that he has been successful in high degree.

The [ Home Treatment Of Tuberculosis (State Board of Health Bulletin) Fresh, clean air is the best anti- dote for pulmonary tuberculosis in every step of its development. It isn't a cure for the advanced stages—no one claims that—but in the earlier approach of the disease it may ward it off and effect!a prac- tical cure. It has been said by high authority that one person ‘in every seven is affected by this disease at some time in his life, that the scars would be revealed by post mortem cxamina- tion. In a large number of such cases the vitality of the individual and the proper care are sufticient to counteract the advance of the dis- ease beyond the beginnings. It is an established fact that fresh air, uncontaminated by the poisons that float about us everywhere in the environments of what we call our highest civilization, is the best pre- ventive of diseases in gencral. The oxygen of the air work destruction to many varieties of disease germs, ! and particularly is this true of tu-l berculosis. The fresh air treatment has many advantages. It is cheap—cheaper than drugs-—it is within the reach of all, and it becomes merely a mat- ter of recognizing the fact and of applying it. Every obstruction that prevents the free circulation of the out-of-door air to our living, whetn- er we are awake or gsleep, lessens the active efficiency of the cure. This fact has been recognized by medi- ca] science to the extent that large sums of money appropriated for the erection of great sanitariums for the treatment of the disease, remain un- expended in more than one north- ern State. In the great federal prison at At- lanta, all tubercular patients are separated from their fellow prison- ers and are made to live in the open air, in tents, under guard within the walls that surround the institution. results have been a splendid demonstration of the value of the treatment.
