The investigation was held dur

INFANT
DEATH
RATE REOUGED
Mortality in Oregon Drops
Despite General In
crease in U. S.
A decrease of six-tenths perl
thousand live births in the infant
death rate in Oregon was record
ed in 1928 over the previous year,
according to the weekly bulletin
ot the state board of health. The
Infant mortality rate in Oregon
has decreased despite a general
Increase over the United States
from C4.S per cent In 12T to S
in 1928. Inasmuch as the infant
mortality is regarded as a measur
ing stick of the efficiency of pub
lic health work, the decrease in
Oregon from 47.5 to 4C.9 points
to - the practical emphasis which
health work is being given in
Oregon.
The credit for this decrease
must be giran td the cooperation
of voluntary health groups and
the medical profession, says the
bulletin, which further states:
.Babies born In Oregon have a
better chance to live and be
healthy than babies born in other
states. This is due to the fact
that the mothers ot Oregon have
been taught to appreciate the ben
efits of prenatal and infant hy
giene. Farther Redactioa
Declared Possible
However, infant mortality can
be reduced further by the syste
matic instruction of mothers In
the care of infants. This has been
clearly demonstrated in New Zeal
and where the Infant death rate
has been reduced to 35 per 1000
live births..
The study of special problems
of childhood has given definite
methods of applying preventive
pediatrics. The conservation and
preservation ot life begins with
the beginning of life. Thai ex
pectant mother should have a
proper kind of diet, a certain
amount of exercise, plenty of
fluids to drink, rest and sleep.
There should be an avoidance
of strenuous exercise. These
things are necessary for the nor
mal development of the child.
Good obstetrical care is necessary
to prevent birth injuries. Strict
asepsis and intelligent technique
limits the amount of interference
to a minimum degree and reduces
infant mortality.
Postnatal care is probably the

most Important factor tn determining-

Mothers must be instructed how
to handle a child through this dif

the bureau sends every mother a
manual on infant care. Postnatal
letters ara Just as important as
prenatal letters and the mothers
of this state are beginning to take
advantage ot this service. Infant

Mold Developed .
Upon Some Hops
In This Section
Hop growers of the vicinity of
Salem are in what could easily be
come a critical position in regard
to their hop crop in case ot fur
ther rainy weather. The few days
of low humidity has already de
veloped mold in many fields and
has become so serious la some that
at least one 40-acre field has been
abandoned without picking any
hops.
Shortage of labor Is making the
situation much more serious. It
sufficient help could be -obtained
to pick the hops as fast as they
should be picked danger of mold
would be materially reduced, but
local labor is not and has not been
available in "sufficient force, and it
is felt that the season is tbo far
advanced to warrant shipping fa
labor which would be stranded
here after hop picking Is over.
