State Board of Health,


The report of the state board of
health is largely concerned with re-
view of the conditions in the state
as to venerea1 diseases. Particular
attention is directed to the figures
from the war department which show
the extent to which these diseases
were prevalent among the men in the
national army. Attention is called to
the opinion of the surgeon general
that the prevalence of these diseases
in the army is largely due to condi-
tons in civil life. The reports Of
these diseases made to the state board
of health indicate that there are prob
ably about 20 cases per thousand of
population in the state as contrasted
with SO per thousand in the regular
army, $50 in the national guard and
200 in the national army.

butter substitute, twelve ounces OF
light syrup or honey, four eggs, pinch
of salt, two ounces baking powder,
one and a half pounds cornmeal and
one and a half pounds rye flour. The
butter and syrup should be thoroughly
