The work of the Visiting Nurse Association and the establish ment of special hoipltala for Infants were also highly commended by Dr. Hall, and an Interesting account was given him of a chain of milk deposito ries throughout the East and South where milk Is prepared according to phystelans" prescriptions. These milk depots are of great value to parents en route through those sections, thus avoiding the dangerous change of milk or special diet.
