INFANT WELFt1EE—ARTIOLE No. 6. ET NURSE. If for any good reason the baby cannot be i.;:rs•'d by his own mother, milk should be secured from a wet -^arse. The most important requisite in an otherwise sati factory ;rt - nurse is that she is well, and especially that she has no r '-,•rrse such as syphilis. To be certain of this a blood test should be made in every case. The wet -nurse's baby must be well and near the same age as the new e nursed. Weanibabyntogbthe 73aby. . The period of weaning should occupy two er + "-ee weeks. It must not be carried out suddenly. A bottle feed; ig sh :a1 be substituted for a nursing; every third or fourth day until all th,- feed '• -,-• are. from the bottle. Thus .the baby has gradually become accu. omen t.) the change, and the mother's breasts will not give any trouble if :lie is con ul' to Omitthe quantity of food she• has been taking. Every ba'3y sh •?uai weaned by ten months, and in no case -should a. baby be nurse*l long.:. t,en a year. It is best not to wean the baby in the hot summer we. ;her. Proprietary Foods. The writer has little use for the sumer so- called baby foods on the market. They are of two kinds, thoe. , to b laic i to cow':x .milk and those without. The former simply add P.eatly to the, expense of cow's milk 'without increasing 'ts value as a fot :.1, an 1 thotee made without milk are not satisfactory. Some of the prorrirtar:' fonds •i �should n � cases a: itld orlyc .. h. u..e1 it 11 s o espensive.' nsive. If t e are are exceedingly py at where the baby cannot digest cow's milk.. rid then only on ,113-.:1,3 of a competent and responsible physician. duet here I might re dark t - �r some reason` or other, (perhaps indifferenc or a lazy mind ), so ilei t:yrs are too read,- to advise the use of these pa. int foods. They show'., i_riak twice or three times before doing so. Substitutes. for Cow's Milk. Condensed MiIk. Condensed milk is milk from which the water a^d often some of the cream has been removed. In many cases sugar heti leen added and the condensed product is frequently made from an niferio of milk. It should not be used as infants' food except in. travelling o: ;a countries where it is impossible to obtain f• ash cow's milk. Goat's Welk. The milk of goats a.nd : sees may be used where cow's milk cannot be obtained, but strictly, under _he advice ofa physician. Feeding for Hot Days. On very hat days, etc., baby should net be urged. to take too much. Give him cooled :'oiled' water iregr•en"'y. Dilute the feeding by replacing one ounce of the formula with one ounce of t. ailed water in each bottle. Hours of Feeding. The hours of feeding for a bottle-fed baby ar; the same as for a breast-fed baby. By the end of the third day he should :Jo fed every two hours in the day time and every four hours at night, ton fle+lings in the twenty-four hours. At one or one sad a half months he should be fed every two and a half hours, or nine feedings in the twenty-four hours. At about fivo or six weeks or as soon as possible the time should be changed to every three hours. The feedings will then be at 6, 9, 'l2, 3, 6, 10, and 2 a,m. The latter feeding should be omitted as soon as the baby will go from 10 at night to 6 in the morning. After nine: or ten mouths the baby will usually sleep through the whole night. Then the 10 p.m. feeding will be omitted. Things to Remember. Buy only clean milk, from a clean milkman. Keep it clean in your home. Buy for the baby the freshest milk you can get, but not necessarily the richest milk. ` If your town has not a Milk Tay -Law, or if it is not enforced, have the mothers unite and get after the town council about it. Endeavor to have milk delivered in bottles. Bulk milk is not safe. Dirt and flies •are sure to get into it. When, milk is received put it on ice -.ice and keep it there until used, Warm milk soon spoils, and spoiled ;lure to make the baby sick. leave an open pitcher out of doors for the milkman to pour the never allow milk to stand about• the house in open vessels u. feedthesyonur baby 'on other than breast, milk don't use a 'lDse rubber nipples and go to the greatest trouble to ottani, and all utensils used are absolutely clean.
