CONFERENCE OF
HEALTH NURSES
MISS MARY f.. MARSHALL, OF
CHICAGO, DISCUSSES TU-
BERCULOSIS.

Al yesterday afternoons confer
ence Miss Mary E. Marshall. Off Chi
cago, national supervisor of tubercu-
iosls nurses, gave very fine talk, in
which she showed some startling
facts and figures. Miss Marshall
said that children should be diagnos-
ed for tuberculosis between the ages
OF and Is years, as that is the pc
rlod in life which investigation shows
is the time when most people contract
this disease.
Miss Marshall also spoke at length
of the results of Investigations made
since our boys We're drafted into the
army, where upon examination a
large percentage were shown to have
tuberculous lesion, and emphasized
the fact that three-fourths of all peo-
pie today have an old tuberculosis
lesion, and do not know it.
Great emphasis was placed on spe-
cial training for nurses today so that
they may recognize the symptoms of
tuberculosis whenever they see them,
and declared that a day of awakening
had arrived when people should rec
ognize and combat this dreaded dis
ease as it deserved.
There is no conference session this
evening, as the nurses are enjoying
a boat ride and supper, compliment
tary of the Madison dentists.
This afternoons program was espe-
cially strong. Mrs. E. p. Wanzer, of
Armour, state director of public
health nursing, was present and gave
very interesting talk on public
health nursing work. Mrs. Agnes H.
Holdridge and Miss June Emery also
gave talks on the Communities Part
in Public Health

TRAIL BOOSTERS
PUSH ROAD WORK
BLACK AND YELLOW AUTOMO-
BILE HIGHWAY Is PROVING
FAVORITE ROUTE.

Huron, July 21.-The new cOnsti-
tutional amendment of the Black and
Yellow Trail, as adopted at its annual
meeting at Pierre, are being quickly
put into effect, according to recent
communications from the trail secre-
tary, o. M. Phelps, of this city.
The interstate features of the
Black and Yellow trail are working
out as never before" said Mr.. Phelps,
"and show the careful work Of the
constitutional amendment committee
at our last meeting. The new Off
GERS are live wires, every one of them,
and are getting results. l claim We
have some truly representative men
as delegates and officers from every
section of the trail and know they
are doing good work.
The new provisions of the constitu-
ton call for the election of a presi-
dent, first vice president, secretary
and a treasurer at large from the
whole Black and Yellow trail. Also,
there is a state vice president from
each state through which the trail
passes. Each county on the trail has
a county chairman, who is supported
by the 10 representatives from each
county.
There are about 35 counties along
the trail in the several states ira
versed. So counting over 10 Black
and Yellow Trail members to coun-
ty. there will be over $50 men from
Chicago to the Black Hills and yell
lowstone Park who will be in direct
touch with the Black and Yellow
trail, to whom tourists or any one
may turn for the latest reports.
Much is being done to better the
markings of the Black and Yellow
Trail all along the line, both in put
ting in new markers and marks and
touching up the old stripes. Infor-
nation bureaus and tourist head
quarters are being established all
along the trail.

MEAT PRODUCTION
SHOWS DECREASE
100000, 900 POUNDS LESS FOR
LAST SIX MONTHS COMPARED
WITH LAST YEAR.

Washington, July 21.-Decrease of
400, 100000 pounds in the country's
meat production for the last six
months as compared with the last
year was reported today by the Insti-
tute of American Meat Packers. Sta
tistics of the agricultural department
showing 100000 fewer cattle, hogs
and sheep were slaughtered at 60
markets during the last six months
were used as the basis of the esti-
mated decreased production.
During nearly every month OF
1920 producers lost money on cattle.
and many packers reported losses on
beef" said the statement. Prices of
hogs and pork products are snbstan-
TALLY lower than last year, due large
ly to diminished exports The de-
crease in slaughter indicates that as
a result of these losses some pro-
ducers have cut their herds and may
restrict production. Such a situation
would be an economic misfortune.
Past experience has been\ normally
that higher prices for meat animals,
and hence for meat, have followed re-
stricted production.
Cattle prices in May, the state
ment added, were down near the
level when the United States entered
the war" but in June the average
price in Chicago of $14.95 for native
beef steers was, with the exception
of June, 1918, the highest June aver
age on record" Fluctuations in re-
ceipts during the two months were
said to have caused the changes.
