West, M. D. Copyright, 1919, by the Press Publishing Co. (The New York Evening World). Simple Rules to Fallow in Artificial Feeding HERE are always times, occa- sions and households requiring correct data on methods of pre- paring suitable feedings for artifi- clally fed babies, despite the fact that special feedings can be procured from milk laboratories and mil, stations. ‘The greatest caution must be ob- served in making the change from the ‘breast to the bottle. It is wise to substitute one bottle feeding for one ‘breast feeding the first day and watch the effect; if it agrees with the child, two bottle feedings may be substi- tuted the next day, and s0 on. Cow's milk differs from human milk in con- taining less fat and more solids. It ig very much heavier and forms in bard curds in the baby’s stomach, in an indigestible mass that cannot nour- ish the cliild, while it gives rise to a great many distressing symptoms, In order, therefore, to dilute the golds, water ts added, and for the extra fat that ts lacking in cow's milk, cream is added. In this way the milk of the cow ls “humanized” that is, it t# made as nearly like mother’s milk as ip possible. Every intelligent mother can in this way reach a form of modified milk that will prove a fair substitute for her own and upon which her baby will thrive until she weans it from the bottle, A measuring glass called Materna, which is graduated and so marked that it is easily followed, is of great assistance in making up these feed- ings. Another point to be observed is the size of bottles used at dif- ferent months; for instance, an in fant one month old should have four ounces of food. Now, if an eight ounce bottle is used one is apt to put more food in it than the child requires and #o overfeed it, All these matters are of extreme im- portance, In preparing feedings for a one or two months old baby, we would use one ounce of milk, three ounces of water, one ounce of cream, and a level teaspoonful and « half of sugar of milk, As the child grows its feedings are increased, and at six months it uses an eight-ounce bottle, In order further to modify the milk, lime salts in the form of lime water is added, a teaspoonful substituting one of ordinary water, re cade air othr dcpanorcoe. “Detroit Kae Pao, must be boiled first, and if milk straight from the farm or from & small dealer is used it must be sub- Jected to a temperature of 167 degrees Fahrenheit after it has been strained through a thin layer of absorbent cotton, Straining it in this manner frees it from all dirt and a good many germs, and pasteurizing it (by heat- ing it to 167 degrees F.) destroys those disease germs that remain. It has been ‘ound that eterilized milk does not afree with babies so well as the “orrtified” or “pasteurized,” and it ts only used now in cases of sickness. Because of the difficulty experienced by some women in the preparation of “modified” feedings, condensed milk and other forms of dried foods are used. These are ail lacking in fat, and although @ child may appédar well nourished, its resisting power to disease will be less than that of @ child otherwise fed unless the proper amount of cream and lime water ba added to the feedings. ‘Therefore in using commercial baby foods, never be satisfied with merely diluting the powder with water or even with milk, but add a sufficient amount of cream to each feeding in order to insure the necessary amount, I will admit that the preparation of & day’s feeding requires time, pa- tiance and intelligence and that the ‘use of any one of the many prepared foods is far easier and quicker; but what of all that when it is a question of starting a child along the path- way of life with a good, healthy con- stitution, or handicapping it with one that succumbs to every form of sick- ness on the calendar? —a HOW TO GET A Jos. ‘OUR credentials are satisfac- tory,” said’ a manufacturer to & youth who was apply- ing for a sitaation as clerk, “Have you a grandmother? “No, sir.” “Any dear old euntT™ “No, sir.” “Or great aunts?” if op any other relat any other ves who will be likely to die during the 1918-19 foot- ball season?” “No, oir.” *YowU do, You cen start ‘work ee ayings oF Mrs. .
