Atlanta. Ca, June 26.-The subject
of the proper feeding OF young chill
dren should be an imperative part i
the curriculum of every college and
training school where young women
are taught says the Georgia State
Board Of Health. There is no knowl-
edge more essential to the proper pre-
eryation of the race, the board points
aut, because proper feeding not only
prevents diseases that are often fatal,
but puts the child in a healthy condi-
ton. enabling it the better to Withstand
disease attacks.
1t is in summer that the greatest
amount of care must be exercised in
feeding the child, because it is in hot
weather that the greatest number OF
children die as a result Of some form
of bowel trouble due to improper feed
ing which may be of several kinds.
The child may have the wrong food;
the quality may be too strong for its
age, or it may be given too much food.
Mothers should always nurse their
children where they possibly can, for
the mothers milk is a perfect food for
the child up to nine or ten months.
Unfortunately, however, more mothers
than formerly are unable to nurse
their children, and sometimes the
mothers fix does not agree with the
child; so that more frequent resort
must be had to artificial feeding for
which the best thing obtainable is mod
flied cows milk given from a bottle.
Artificial foods offered in the market
may seem to do well for a while, but
often lead to troubles indicated in the
beginning by peevishness and fretful-
ness of the child.
In artificial feeding select the milk
from a good healthy COW, preferably
one of the ordinary mixed breeds, ds
that fthe blooded Jerseys and Al
derneys is generally too rich in fats
Still the use of the whole milk would
give a much less percentage of fats
than is needed and for this reason
modified for feeding infants should be
made from the upper third of the mills
after it has been allowed to stand il

hours THIS there is used a large
proportion of tie cream with les,

have been taken. These should be
prepared and given only by the direc-

After the first year as the child is

there may be added gruels prepared
from we'll cooked coats or barley,
beef juice or the white of an egg
slightly cooked. The various broths
may also be given. Children relish
very much all fruit juices and these
may be allowed in moderation with
out harm, and even with benefit ia
many cases. AS the child grows older
the starches should form a greater and
breater proportion of it's diet, but due
care should be exercised in Away

in Schools of State.

Tables have been prepared showing
just vat proportions OF tnis upper
third Of the milk, containing ten PEI
cent. of fat, boiled water and lime
water should be used in making the
modified milk suitable for children G
food 1t is better that these proper
lions be secured from a physician,
preferably one who has made a spe-
cial study of the treatment of chill
dren.
The utmost care should always be
used in handling the milk from whicl
this food is to be prepared, and when
prepared it should be sealed and re-
turned to the refrigerator where It
should be kept until required for feed
ng. It is best not to use milk which
has been in the refrigerator more than
twenty-four hours, or at most forty
eight hours, and then only if kept at
proper temperature. The modified milk
should be poured direct from the re-
centacle in which it is kept into the
feeding bottle, and the latter should be
placed in warm water until the milk
is "milk-warm'' when it is ready to be
given to the child.
Cleanliness is everything connected
with the feeding of the child is of the
child is of the utmost Importance
Bottles and nipples should be boilel
after using and then kept in a saturat
ed solution of boracic acid. The nipple
after being cleansed should come into
contact with nothing but the infant,
mouth. Bottles with no neck are pra
ferabie because they can be more
easily cleansed.
| During very warm weather meditie(
milk made from the upper third of thu
milk may be found too strong, and j
is we'll to reduce the amount of fat b.
using the, fhole milk instead of tn
richer portion. This precaution SHOULD
always be taken in cases where chill
dren have acute diseases, and the tota
quantity taken should be less than un
der ordinary circumstances.
The amount of food given should al
ways be reduced in very hot weather

the late wheat is doing we'll. Mr..
Scof1eld plowed his land deep and
did good farming in general. This
together with ideal climatic condl-
tons produced the finest crop he has
ever raised. Mr. Scofeld ought to
harvest around 10000 bushels OF
wheat from the 1900 acres and 1t
may average even better. The wheat
stands very high and the heads are
long and so heavy that they are
leaning towards the ground. This is
ideal weather for filing, too.

TURKISH WRESTLER
WAS MURDERED
Killed by sibe' Kahn, His Manager,
in Fight at oberon, N. D., May
Have Been Deliberate Murder.

Obercn, N. D.. July 22.-Hassan
AEdulia, the Turkish wrestler Of St.
Jaul, was killed in this city at 1890
o'clock Saturday morning by Sibil
Kahn, his manager, and the latter 10
il. ja; at Mjnnewaukon charged by
& Co"onor's jury with being respon-
sible fer the murder.
Death had been caused by slows
from q blunt instrument, dealt while
Abdulla evidently was lying en- mat
in the show tent of the C. P. Patten
Carnival company where the wrestler
gave regular exhibitions of wrestling
and sword fighting.
Kahn claims that the ling was
done in self defense, making that as
sertion when he surrendered himself
all hour after the killing.
Details brought out at the coron-
or's inquest cause officials to bel eve
that the murder was deliberately
planned and executed.
Trouble over money matters have
caused several qllarrels between Has
san and Kahn recently, Kahn clamur-
ing for money which he claimed Ab-
dulla owed him. The manager hod
been heard making threats on prev.
ious occasions against Atdu1la.
Abdulla is quite we'll known in
wrestling circles, having had matches
with Gotch, Zybsco and several other
wrestlers. He made the Twin Cities
his headquarters, as did Kahn. The
dead wrestler is married and his wife
and several children reside some
where in Canada.
