The Dr. Hudson Sanitarium Agricultural Building Historic District encompasses a small cluster of buildings constructed in the 1930s as part of a planned tuberculosis sanitarium in central northern Newton County, Arkansas. It is located on the west side of Arkansas Highway 327, southwest of Jasper, and includes three buildings. Two of them are modest 1+12-story log houses, finished with board-and-batten siding, and the third is a two-story wood-frame dairy barn. These were built 1936-39 pursuant to a plan by Dr. William Anderson Hudson, a doctor with deep family ties in the area, to provide facilities for tuberculosis sufferers in the remote area. His plans were frustrated by World War II and state regulations on such facilities, and the main sanitarium was never built. [2]

The town of Colorado Springs, Colorado played an important role in the history of tuberculosis in the era before antituberculosis drugs and vaccines. Tuberculosis management before this era was difficult and often of limited effect. In the 19th century, a movement for tuberculosis treatment in hospital-like facilities called sanatoriums became prominent, especially in Europe and North America. Thus people sought tuberculosis treatment in Colorado Springs because of its dry climate and fresh mountain air. Some people stayed in boarding houses, while others sought the hospital-like facilities of sanatoriums. In the 1880s and 1890s, it is estimated that one-third of the people living in Colorado Springs had tuberculosis. The number of sanatoriums and hospitals increased into the twentieth century. During World War II, medicines were developed that successfully treated tuberculosis and by the late 1940s specialized tuberculosis treatment facilities were no longer needed.
