' ' i Goat Milk Good for Infants and In valids An interesting bulletin, No. 285, has recently been issued by the Agricultural Experiment Station, Ber keley, Cn'iforiiin, on "The Milch Goat in California." In referring to the uses of goat milk it says: "The most striking results so far secured relate to tho feeding of goats' milk to in fants. The station has had the oppor tunity of supplying this mill: to n fairly large number of very young children, who were in serious physical condition, due to their inability to prnpei ly digest and nssimilnte cither modified cow's milk or any of thi commercial Infants' foods that wore tried. In nearly all cases of this kind the physical condition of the children has been built up and satis factory growth has been brought about by the use of goat milk."
