of public highways, and a number of
the state legislatures are considering
good road legislation. In connection
with the general impetus that the good

TROOPS ON BORDER
KEEP IN GOOD HEAL TIL

WASHINGTON, Aug 29.-The high
degree of health maintained at the
army maneuver camp at Texas City
and Galveston, Tex, where 10000 men
have been under tents for the last six
months, has convinced army medical
officers that there will be no repetition
of the sick camps which marked Span
ish war days
1t was pointed out at the surgeon
general IS Office today that in the six
months since the mobilization of the
troops there has been no case of ty-
phoid fever among the men. No case
of smallpox and but few cases Of meas.
les and mumps. Typhoid and smallpox
have been kept away by the use of
vaccine and malaria has been almost
unknown, due to the drainage of the
camp.
Before the causes of camp diseases
were well understood it was known
that a moving army was n healthy
army compared TO one under canvas,
but the results in the Texas camps con
vince officers that troops can be kept
in the same camp for months with no
danger of epidcmics.
