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.
