The one serious danger to the
average baby in summer arises from
disturbances of the digestion. Some
one has said. however, that many of
the deaths every summer which are
said to be caused by gastric and
intestinal Diseases" should really
have been attributed to bad feed
ing"
In other words, a pitifully large
number of these illnesses and many
deaths could be prevented IL the
baby had been fed in the best way
from the start. Since disturbance
of this sort may become serious in
few hours in very hot weather,
there is greater need than ever for
care at this time OF year.
Breast-fed babies are far less like
ly to have an attack OF this kind
than the one who is fed otherwise,
but even a breast-fed baby may be-
come Ill IL the mother nurses him
too often or at irregular hours, or
in the night, and especially IL she
let's him eat solid foods too early.
Bottle-fed babies appear to me
most liable TO attacks OF summer
dlarrhea, and on this account every
mother Of a baby who is artifically
fed should have the soundest advice
about the feeding Of the baby in
