MONTROSE (COLO.) HEALTH RETREAT.

The Hygienic Health Retreat is an enterprise conducted by Brother and Sister Hartman, and is located six miles from Montrose, Colo., in what is known as the Uncompahgre Valley of the Gunnison, on the western slope of the Rockies. A little over a year ago Brother and Sister Hartman added to their three-roomed house seventeen rooms more; and this building, with their twenty acres of orchard and vegetable ranch, they are using in the gospel health mission work, treating and caring for the sick. The ranch supplies part of the food for the family and their large number of patients, but it is a struggle to make the ranch and the income from patients supply means for a living.
This is God's work, and Brother and Sister Hartman need the support of every Seventh-day Adventist. Such is the fame of the remarkable cures God is doing with the ministering hands of Brother and Sister Hartman that invitations are sent to them to go to towns from twenty to eighty miles distant, and start similar treatment rooms.
Patients living in the surrounding towns come daily to the health retreat to receive treatments. The train stops just in front of the door, which is a great convenience to the sick who wish to visit the retreat. This retreat is a great benefit to those who live on the western slope of the Rocky Mountains, in the San Juan region. Dr. Butterbaugh is the physician in charge. Brethren, give this cause your support. B. G.
