Insane Hospital

Insane Hospital

The care and treatment of the insane is nowhere accomplished in a more successful manner than at the Manitowoc Insane Hospital, of which the accompanying picture is a fine representation.  Kindness, quietude and scientific treatment are the principal features that have spread its fame to all parts of the State, so that many neighboring counties send patients to Manitowoc paying for their maintenance.  From this revenue the directors were able to make the gratifying report of an income of $11000 over expenditures for last year.  The 200 of more acres are kept in a high state of cultivation by the more tractable patients, who are greatly benefited by the work in the open air, in the field, amid flowers and shrubbery.  The hospital is a pet hobby of Mr William Rahr, the secretary to whose excellent business management its great success is largely due.
