Associations Organized—Tuberculo sis Dangerous—Must Have Hospital Care. Des Moines, Sept. 17, 1913.—The new tuberculosis law authorizing county supervisors to provide ade quate care for persons suffering with tuperculosis will require intelligent cooperation on the part of the people if the provisions of the law are com plied with. Tuberculosis is very dan gerous, especially where advanced cases are not properly cared for. In stances are on record where an. ad vanced case of tuberculosis has in fected a considerable number of per sons in the last few months of this disease*. The problems involved in the hospital care of this dis«ase not only have to do with the segregation of the consumptive himself but the environment from which he comes should also be a matter of inquiry. Housing conditions should be care fully investigated and a thorough study made of families where pati ents apply for public relief. It will be a revelation to any community in the state if an intelligent investiga tion is made of the contributory causes of tuberculosis. While there is much knowledge of a general char acter pervading the state, there is nevertheless need of greater activity toward the absolute control of this disease. Inquiries from persons suffering with tuberculosis are reaching the department from every section of the state requesting aid. It is up to the county supervisors to provide for the care of these unfortunate people, but it is not generally believed that much will be done until associations have been organized for the express pur pose of assisting the supervisors in the proper care and management of this class. Any one desiring information con cerning the new county hospital law should write to the Department on Tuberculosis, Des Moines., ^Tfc^SW*? i'fl '»./ «r INFANT'S FOOT FORM SHOES.
