Wilson, Health Officer There is no baby food that equals mother's milk. A baby raised on mother's milk has a much better start In life than one raised on the bottle. It has just six times the chance of keeping well and vigor ous, Breast milk is fresh, clean, and pure because it is taken at tis source. Nature provides that the milk shall reach the nursling with out being exposed to the air, and her plan keeps out dirt, germs, flies and finders. Breast feeding i cheapest, sim plest, easiest and safest, and usu ally calls for no training. Bottle feeding is not so safe. The modi fication of the milk to mid the in dividual baby requires skill nnd practice; the washing and sterilis ing of the bottles take time. The nursing mother ehould bo 'careful with her own diet, for the things she eats or drinks affect her milk. Certain medicines, such as mer cury (calomel), headache powders, opium, purgative salts, rhubarb, u rse nic. brom ides. w he n 1 a k c n through the mouth, have after wards been found itt the mother's milk. If mother's milk is not avail able, babies should have the best and freshest cow's milk that can be o Ida i tied. Whether such milk Is to be pasteurized Is a question for the doctor to decide in the in dividual case. I'nless very Mire of the supply, the doctor usually will lake no chances: he will advise pasteurized milk for the baby, especially in summer time.

But. while the cow is a good foster mother, she i Is a foster mother only. Cow's ! milk wa.s intended by nature as j mum tor caives. it nas every tmtm i in it that the calf needs, but not ' ' everything that the baby needs; j and its element are not in llui right proportion for th( baby. i By diluting cow's milk, .'nd add- j lug simer, we can make a mixture I that is something tike mother s j milk, but it still lacks important j subsla nces.

Milk should not con ; tain more than 7 per cent of tmgar, which is the amount provided by j nature in mother's milk. Too much sugar may cause gas j ami colic atul lead to serious I roll I ble. Your only safe plan Is to place the baby under the regular ! care of your doctor or a baby clinic physician, and he alone should bo trusted to decide how the milk shall be modified. Uo not let the advice of your neighbor direct the feeding of your haby. Babies should be nursed for at least six months and not longer than ten months. Ordinarily they should be weaned, under the doe tor's direction, between tho sixth and ninth months, und cow's milk and other foods should gradually replace the mother's milk.
