The surrounding area of some 400 square miles, :lled with ranches which extend high into the Rocky Mountains, contains 1,000 more. These 2,000 souls are constantly falling ill, recovering or dying, having children, being kicked by horses and cutting themselves on broken bottles. A single country doctor, known in the profession as a \"g.p.\", or general practitioner, takes care of them all.
