HEALTH PROBLEMS OF CHILDREN FALL IN GLASSIFICATIONS Dr, Orr Tells Kiwanis Club That Many Children Are Dy- ing Needlessly North Dakota child health problems fall in five classifications, members of the Bismarck Kiwanis club were told ‘Tuesday by Dr. A. C. Orr, director of the children’s hygiene department of the state health department. These classifications include pre- natal care of the mother, nutrition, habit training, prevention of disease and preventive and corrective care. Care of the mother during the ex- Pectancy perlod is extremely import- ant, Dr. Orr said, citing-that a recent survey ingicated as high as 63 per cent of expectant mothers do not receive Proper care. Supervision of the mother iistructions as to diet and perform- ance of the Wasserman blood test all ere important to the well-being of the child. Could Have Saved 200 Of the 816 infants who died in North Dakota in 1935, the speaker said, 240 died because of premature birth and experience shows that at least 200 or the 240 could have been saved with Proper care for the mother. In view of the fact that 15 per cent of children in North Dakota of pre-school age have defective teeth, in many cases due to malnutrition, Dr. Orr said, it is safe to estimate that at least 15,000 children of this age classifica- tion are troubled in this way in this state alone. Lack of proper vitamins cause defects in teeth and rickets. At least 14,000 cases of rickets in North Dakota at present is the director's estimate. Habit-training lies largely with the parents, the speaker recommending increased care on the part of parents in bringing up their children properly. He doubts that more than one per cent of the children of pre-school age he examines are mental cases. Yet it is estimated that 50 per cent of the hospital beds occupied in the nation are occupied by patients suffering mental or nervous system ailments. Better home training could reduce this percentage. Medical men know how to prevent smallpox and diptheria and know enough about scarlet fever and meas- les to reduce their ravages. Though Massachusetts, which vaccinates against smallpox, has had only one case of this disease in the last 10 J. W. CALNAN Funeral Home ;Guthrie, program chairman.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1937 Cost of Revised _ORN REGILATIN - Project Is Lower Will Be Little Disagreement -CIMZENSHIP BY WPA Sheyene River Would Get 134,- 000 Acre Feet, James River 50,000 Acre Feet Washington, Oct. 27.—()—House PC agriculture committeemen, meeting Wednesday to draft a farm bill for the special session, described regula- tion of the nation’s annual corn crop as their principal stumbling block. Chairman Jones (Dem., Texas) told reporters he believed there would be little disagreement over other features of permanent legislation. The difficulty over corn regulation lies in the fact that the bulk of the crop is consumed locally to feed hogs, other livestock and poultry. So little is marketed marketing controls might not be ef- fective. A measure which Jones introduced late last session will be the basis for the discussions, he said. i Editor's Note: Detailed cost | estimates and allocation of water | supplies is treated in this article, third of a series on the Missouri river diversion proposal recently placed before army engineers in Washington, D.

Potato Growers, at St. Paul Meeting, Act to Protect Drouth Farmers 1,802,363 213,440 1,269,596 418,724 St. Paul, Oct. 27.—(4)—Potato grow- ers of the Northwest were en route to their homes Wednesday as work of setting up control offices went for- ward. The growers, delegates to the mid- west potato control committee meev- ing, adopted two resolutions at their final session. One requests the U. S. department of agriculture to make its propos:d potato diversion program effective immediately. The other, adopted for benefit of growers in the drouth areas, asked the AAA to permit any grower who is unable to sell 50 per cent of his crop because of cull elimination under the marketing act, to dispose of any portion up to 50 per cent of his crop through government relief or other channels. | Under the marketing agreement adopted by a referendum vote last September potatoes less than one and one-half inches in diameter or those not meeting requirements of U. 8, No. 2 grade are removed from interstaie trade. 684,000 ALLOWE’EN’s the ide: Three hundred and fifty-six child- comes from G&W's pri ren were examined during the pi school conference, which closed Tues: day at noon, in session during the last 10 days in the dining room of the World War Memorial building. Dr. August C. Orr, examining physician, was in charge. This is the largest number of child- ren ever to be examined during a con- ference, which usually has lasted only a Tew days. The greatest number of children to be examined came from the Will and Wachter school districts last Monday | and Tuesday. Fifty-nine came from the Will district and 53 from the Wachter. The conference was put on by the division of child hygiene of the North Dakota Board of Health and spon- sored by the Women’s Community Council of Bismarck. Co-operating with the council committees were members of the American Legion aux- iilary, who supplied cars for bringing the children and their parents to and from the clinic.

To ground water—60,000 (estimated) acre feet. To Devils Lake and for irrigation on the Souris, James and Sheyenne rivers, 105,000 acre feet. Evaporation—Antelope lake (5,000 acres) 7,200 acre feet.

Under the item of allocation to Devils Lake and the three rivers, a notation is made that in the eariy part of the operation of the project the larger part of the 105,000 acre feet of water would go to Devils Lake. Increasing amounts could be maae =/available for irrigation as the lake filled.. Upon the completion of the filling, the entire amount would be available for irrigation.
