J. , MIDDLET()N pr6vir,611 Boars, of Health, Ontcrlo Dr. Middleton w111 be glad' to answer questions on Ptiblic Health, at ters through this colilinu. Addreaus him at Spading House, kipadluss' Crescent,' Toronto, ' ' The question of height and weight. of people at various ages is alWays 'mportant from a health point of view. In infancy the weight eapecially is of extreme importance in keeping watch on the baby's health and development. A baby of a certain age should weigh a certain amount, • allowing for such things as its yveight at birth, character of its feeding during the first few months of life and so on. Most moth- ers know something about 'what a child should weigh, and instinct, teaches ,thern to realize that something is wrong if the baby does not gradually gain in weight. The whole subject of infant feeding and dare has now been reduced to a science and valuable and definite inforination is always to' be had from Boards of Health for those who are interested. • However, .in the matter of height and weight' in growing children and adults the case is somewhat different,' as no hard and fast lines can be drawn as to the exact amount that -people should weigh, or the exact height they 'should be. Height is to a large extent a question of heredity, it being Often noticed that a young man or woman above the normal height usually has at least one parent noticeably tall. , The; opposite holds good- in the case of short people. Children take after their parents in this regard just as they do in physical 'features, disposition, ete. Of course there are exceptions to this,' as to most of all conditions of a sim- ilar nature, •but generall-y' a child fol- lows its father's or mother's footsteps as regards height. . 1 Numerous experiments- have been made to prove that good feeding in infancy and childhood will undoubted- ly add something to the height. In fact some countries of the world, anxious to increase the stature of its people, have adopted school fettling movements to try to bring about the desired result. It might be added that something can even be ridded to the height by standing straight. Investigations have found that pupils•being measured showed a differ- ence in height of from one to three inches, brought about from a change from bad to good posture. The proper height -of the desks and seats in school must be adhered to, otherwise the chil- dren will suffer. Up to about nine years of age the' back of a standing child° is straight, but when it 4has reached 12 or 15 years of age the hol- low ,curvature of the back is much more pronounced. It 18 about this stage that variations from the normal curvature begin to show themselves. For growing children or for adults it is not necessary to give meat every day. Many peoPle can live and thrive without meat at all, but for ordinary *diets,meat once every other day and at one meal a day is enough. Chicken and fish can very, often be substituted for meat with advantage. Cheese should be eaten sparingly, and not more than once per clay. One 'should especially cultivate a taste for fresh vegetables, as they contain important' food factors that are not in cooked or preserved foods. These factors are known as yitamines and are very necessary to health. Fresh fruit should also be eaten daily, and milk and water should be taken freely, leaving out tea and coffee as much as possible. • • Weeder is Adjustable to Width of Row.
