20 INFANT FEEDING ~


and intestinal diseases. In the win
ter time, owing to the cool condi-
ton of the milk, the germs are
unable to propagate as rapidly as
during the summer months.
The statistics of the pasteurization
of milk throw much light on this sub
ject. Pasteurized milk was first
made available for infants in general
in New York city in 1893, by Nathan
Straus, when he dispensed from one
depot "a, 600 bottles of milk so pre-
pared. In 1906, II Straus stations
dispensed 3,142,252 bottles of pas
teuriZed milk, and ,07S,4 05 glasses.
Prior to the beginning of this work
the death rate of children under five
years in New York city was over
1922 out of every 1000, and in June,
July and August, the death rate of
children was at the rate of 1864
per thousand per annum. With the
increased use of pasteurized milk the
death rate fell to 80 per thousand
and the summer death rate to 62.7
per thousand. You will see that by
the Idle Oh MORTALITY III 1880 anu
1906 there was a saving of 42.S2
per cent and in the summer months
54.57 per cent This shows the i'm
portance of feeding the babies milk
free from disease germs when it has
been demonstrated that by doing so
We lower the death rate over so
per cent. The first year of it's life
the child consumes about 500 quarts
of milk, and when we consider the
high cost of milk we should insist
that it be delivered to us pure. Milk
is not an inactive fluid, but possesses
properties of living tissues. Ignor-
ance of the law excuses none from its
penalties, and with all the light we
have on the subject there should be
no excuse for permitting our babies
or the sick and convalescent to be fed
I on impure product. Are We our
brothers keeper? If so, why should
we for personal or political reasons
not compel the producer to supply
! him with a clean, pure milk, free
from disease germs for his family?

Argus.

BY DR.. STOCKS.


DR.. Stocks, in addition to his in
terview regarding milk and it's rela-
ton to public health, adds some per-
tirent suggestions in regard to, car
ing for milk TO be used as a food for
babies, the sick, and convalescent.
II the dealer has done his part in
providing a perfectly clean, pure milk
il may become unfit for food (es-
pecially for babies) if not properly
cared for in the home. a cool, clean.
convenient place should be provided
where the milkman can place the
bottle, then the bottle should be TAX
en- at the earliest possible moment
and the cap and outside of bottle
thoroughly washed in clean cold wat.
er and placed on the ice. The ice
box should be free from any sub
stance such as onions, fish or other
substances which impart their flavor
TO milk. because there is no food so
susceptible TO contamination from
bad odors and foreign substances as
milk. The milk should not be re-
moved from the ice box until you are
ready TO use it, then see to it that
all receptacles for the milk are clean
Thorough washing and cleansing OF
all parts of the home and of all
Utensils used for food is absolutely
essential to the preservation of
health. The greatest dangers to
health from the use of milk arise
from the presence in, or the introduce
ton into the milk, of harmful baC-
terra, and from their increase in num-
Der. The greater their number the
greater the danger to human life.
By following the above suggestions
carefully the growth of bacteria will
/ be greatly lessened.
/ In infant feeding there is no sub
stitute that equals mothers milk,
1 but there are so many cases in which
it is impossible TO provide mothers
milk. Then, ii is necessary to Sc.
cure a substitute. Modified cows
milk is the best substitute We car
get. In preparing cows milk We
must have pure, clean milk. BY this
We mean milk absolutely free from
/ germs. Unless milk is kept in a coo
place the germs multiply so rapidly
that instead of feeding milk you are
in reality supplying the infant al
emulsion OF germs, their poisons, and
decomposed milk. Unless you know
positively that your milk is absolute

you are willing to secure a suitable
apparatus and devote a certain

pasteurization it is better that you dC
not attempt this yourself.
In modern up-to-date plants the
milk is first thoroughly clarified anC
brought to a certain temperature and
maintained for a definite length o
time. This destroys any germs tina
may be present. Then the milk il
