WARNING TO PARENTS.

I is risky to feed raw milk
and cream to children or inva-
lids unless you are sure that at
the farm which produces h e
milk the utmost cleanliness is
observed at all times. particu-
larly during milking: that the
employees are thoroughly healthy
and clearly persons, that the
cows are free from diseases.
that the water used for rinsing
is OF undoubted purity, and that
the milk is quickly cooled and
kept cold and covered until de-
livered to you.
Raw milk often produces tu-
berculosis, scarlet fever. also
typhoid and other intestinal dis
eases.
We can guard against infec-
ton by properly pasteurizing
milk or by home pasteurization.
Properly pasteurizing milk
land cream by keeping it at 40
deg. f. for twenty to thirty
minutes does not affect its nu-
tritive value nor it's digestibility.
The best system is to pasteur-
ize the milk after it has been
bottled.
You can home pasteurize raw
milk by heating it to near boil
ing, then cool, and keep cold
and covered until used.
Most Indigestion in babies IS
caused by milk too rich in
cream.
