The health conditions and mortal
ty rates for pre-school children and
infants have been the srbject Of
recent surveys. They show that
while the death rate in the cities has
been decreasing and the general
health conditions improving, condi-
tions in the rural districts have re-
manned unchanged. In the cities
the favorable trend is ascribed to
the modern system of health supervi-
sion. Mothers have access to
health centers and profit by the
work of various nursing organiza-
tons 1t is held that families in
the rural sections are as much
entitled to skilled advice and help
from physicians, nurses and health
centers as city people. To bring
these facilities to these families is
ne object of the Child Welfare
Special.
In 1924 this vehicle visited II
counties, making los stops, only II
of which were in towns of more than
1000 population. Over 1000
physical examinations of infants and
pre-school children were made and
their defects pointed out to parents.
1t is expected the parents will seek
the help Of the family physician or
institute whatever other corrective
measures may be called for. Com
paratively few children examined
were found without defects.
Malnutrition was a large factor.
Much of the work done with the
Special is Of an educational character
that can hardly be listed but it gives
an index to the health conditions in
rural Wisconsin.
