OJ TOIIPKINS COUNTY, NEW YO.IfIC 119
Your Commit tee on Equalization reports that they .have examined
the assessment rolls of the several tax districts in the County of
Tompkins, for the ,purpose of ascertaining whether ithe valuation in
one tax district bears a just relation to the valuation in all the tax
districts in tire.county; that in. the opinion of the members of the
committee such valuations do not bear such just relations to the val-
uations in all the tax districts of the county, and your committee
would recommend that the valuations of the several tax districts,
in order that they gray bear such just relations, be increased or
diminished according to the following statements so as to make the
aggregate equalized valuations as indicated in the tabular statement
above.
And your committee would also report that they have determined
upon proper inquiry and investigation the ratio or percentage which
t'lte assessed value of the real property in each such tax district bears
to its full value and would recommend that, based upon such determ-
ination of your committee that the board establish such ratios or
percentages which are determined and in the opinion of your com-
mittee are as follows:
Caroline 97 Per Cent
.Danby 96 Per Cent
Dryden 98 Per Cent
Enfield .96 Per Cent
Groton 99 Per Cent
Ithaca City .99 Per Cent
Ithaca Town 99 Per Cent
Lansing 98 Per Cent
Newfield 99 Per Cent
Ulysses '94 Per Cent
That your eornrnittee have, in accord with such percentage com-
piled, and that the foregoing tables shows the aggregate valuations
of each tax district, as determined from the actual values of prop-
erty fixed according to the above ratios or percentages and the aver=
age rate of assessment of real property in the county which your
committee have detrin.ined. according to the rules ]aid flown by Stat-
ute, to be .98383 and that the table shows by such valuations the
several and aggregate valuations upon which the taxes for the -
county, including the state taxes, should the apportioned between the
several tax districts of the county.
All of which is respectfully submitted.

ti'ccirrr.rl 11'1; 1110 (:outiutrin,,,• to urge your consideration of thy,
pressing treed of adequate hospital focilitics at the county lmine.
'Flu: State Board of Charities through its inspectors, have repeat-
edly called imi'atteutiou to i:Ii utter lack of real hospital equipment
needed in earring for the many aged, infirm and helpless inmates of
the county home, and have directed' that provision must be made for
the necessary facilites and for rr 0w1111etent rouse to give prober care
0) the Lases already in the home.
Typical cases of the sort requiring hospital attention are as fol-
lows:
1. A present. town charge':-1'4rornart of 8=1, through breaking
i1 vv11 of old age is pr(nouneed technically iustrne by physicians.
The only possible disposition of the case is 0) send the patient to
AV illard, because the corlril.•y has neither nurse rtttr facilities 10 a1v0
her the 11eCC44ary care.
2. h'en's hospital at. county home:—The atlen'5 hospital is 1100'
full, and the patients etre dependent for rine most. of the time 1111011

3. Women's hospital at eouut•y- home :—There ore now five WO -
. 111 the wol0ren'S 11a5pital in the care of a competent woman, but
She Las no .hospital facilities for caring for these patients. She is
doing the hest possible under presetrt, conditions, but; is greatly hand-
icapped by lack of needed conveniences.
206 PROCEEDINGS OF T1Ik B0A) D OF SUPERVISORS
These conditions now exist. Specific cases in which hospital
equipment .has been heeded in the past could be cited in large num-
bers; and there is every reason to expect new ones at any time.
Having, observed these conditions, arta recognizing the desirability
of securing more humane. more seietlrifie and better conditions gen-
era 1]y for t:}ie va rds committed to inti care, and furthermore, aware
of the difficulties experienced by 11ie poor officials of the city and
towns in caring for their many eases of sickness and disability; we
'as county superintendents, have spent considerable time investigat-
ing studying facilities and methods employed in other counties
of the state. -We firm that: in many counties these unsatisfactory
conditions are being sncce.sfrrll,y relieved by the erection and equip-
ment of a modern hospital building ilr connection tivith the county
home, managed and maintained as a pant of the county ]come estab-
1ishtnent.
111 view- of the many problems involved in this proposition, which
aliect the social curd erannnrie co1rditiorr5 of the county, and also i e-
leiVi11g that the hest- knowledge obtainable should be hr•ouglit to hear
upon its so}rttion, we ask that a cnn)nrittec of your Board be alutlior-
ized to net with the conrrt,y superintendents of the poor upon the
proposition to const•r'ract 0 hospital at the county home.

Report of
Board of Managers of the
Tuberculosis Hospital
To fire Pittard of Supervisors:
1-1o1u)ralde Sirs:—
Tsr <aueorrlalsrre, with lanes Of. N& .v Sorh Staite, w'e, the 13.oard of
Managers of ilu; Tompkins Gmnly n;)w pre-
sent oirr annwrl report.
We feel that the past year has been the most successful, in several
ways, in the history nt the hospital.
There have been a. testi number of patients admitted than lust ,year
and those admitted, have been. in a less advanced stage of the disease.
in a targe rneasatre, is Ayre to the work of the County Nurse and
the Clinics in finding early- r!asels and persuading them to come to
the hospital hefore all chance of htttp i5 gone.
The total cost. of maintenance was $297.(11 greater than last year.
This was clue to the necessity of paying the employees more.
\\ e reeived $7,:147.50 from paying patients. This is considerable
more i;harrr was ever reeeiveil in a year, before. '1 his iur;rcrise wars
clue to the Goverunrent designating the hospital 55 a place for
soldiers.
1invcnrent o1° 1'atie 1!s-1)rrriug the :year, thirty-three patients
were ;hitt-titled and twenty-five discharged. There -were seven deaths.
Nineteen patients rvere tliSuhargcrl improved and Six; unimproved.
The average daily imputation was twenty-three and the total num-
ber of days' treatment, 8,314.
The total expenditures for the year were $20,815.41 and after de-
ducting the,salary- and traveling expenses of. 1 -he County Nurse total-
ing $1,272.1.8 leaves $14},$'.15.23 as the actual cost of maintaining the
I)ospital. This makes our daily cost per Palle/it $2.35.
Last year we had a. lraliauce ori hand f *2.878.40 and we received
$18,000.00 from you, making a tota of $20;870.40. This year owing
20S PROCEEDINGS 01' TIIE BOARD 0F SU'PE1tVISORS
to our 'large receipis we have a balance of $7,828.28 on hand for
_maintenance. So we have to request; of you $15,000.00 instead of
$18,000.00 for the conning year.
Last "year We urged upon you the necessity of improving' the road
from the depot to the hospital. This has not been done. There are
times when it is impossible for the patients to be brought to the hos-
pital owing to the sleep 11111d the last half, mile. We urge your con-
sideration of this matter
We -request *600.00 fur the construction. of a heat house. We be-
lieve this %'ould tae more .profitable and or more use to the hospital
than the raising of pigs.
We again request $600.00 to enlarge the pump house and $250.00
for another engine for use in an emergency.
We also ask $500.00 in addition to elle $1,200.00 given us last year
to build two rooms on the women 's porch a5 we tare unable to get a
contractor to take the jolt for $1.,200.00.
It is the unanimous opinion- of our Board o1 $Managers that a be-
giruaing should he made [or the better dousing of our tubercular
patients. Willi this idea in view, we -most respectfully request. your
consideration of imilaling 0 new hospital oil the present site. We
reeontineial that you have plains drawn And pant of such new hospital
to accommodate the women be built this corning summer.
