Rural Health Situation In South Dakota, W.F. Kumlien

Research Bulletins of the South Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station (1887-2011)

In consequence, the general plan of the bulletin in describing the conditions and findings of the study, has been to organize it around three related phases. Part I is more or less introductory, showing the relationship of the new health movement as applied specifically to rural South Dakota conditions. Part II deals with the location, number, and distribution of health agencies in the state. Part III attempts to describe more intensively the more important health conditions in Brookings county as being typical of the eastern South Dakota situation, together with suggestions for correcting certain rural health inequalities.
