First Requisite Is That He Shall Be Comfortable at All Times Food, Clothing and Bathing All Highly Important Prepared by the Children's Bureau, U. &! Department of Labor.) The "long, hot days of summer are trying to people of all ages, but . are particularly hard on the young baby. He is more liable to illnessespecially to diarrhea, at this' time, because he Is weakened by the heat and in a con-' dition where he is ' easily upset. The object for which the mother must work in summer is to make the baby comfortable, for a comfortable baby is one who is well. To make the baby comfortable itt is necessary to consider how he should be fed, clothed and bather ; how to keep him cool and give him plenty of sleep; how to deal with prickly heat and other similar troubles, and, most of all, manytimes, what not to do. A baby who is fed regularly with the right .kind of food and no other kind, except plenty of cool water to drink; who wears little or no clothing during the hot hours of the day and night; who is kept clean -with plenty of baths; who sleeps in a cool, quiet room, screened from flies and mos quitoes; who is handled very little and is allowed to live a quiet, reghlar life, will usually be a healthy one. A healthy child makes a healthy grown person, and every stpne laid in the foundation of a sound and normal baby is just so much for the child to build upon in the future. Nothing is so necessary to the health of a young baby as breast milk. This is the food nature intended him to have and on whiclj he will nearly always thrive. Any. other food, how ever good the milk and however well prepared, cannot take the place of good breast milk, and no mother who loves her baby will bg willing to de prive him of this boon until she has tried in every way to keep it for him. This is true at all seasons of the year, but it is especially true in summer, when it is so hard to keep cow's milk pure and sweet. Unless cow's milk has been milked from clean, healthy cows, by clean milkers, into pails that have been scalded with boiling water; unless it has been cooled at once and kept cold until the food is made ready, it is not fit for a baby. Milk which is dirty when it comes from the cows, or clean milk which is left to stand about in open dishes, in a warm room, 'exposed to flies and dust, should never be used for the baby. If, as sometimes happens, the moth er does not have milk enough for her baby, she will need to add to it by one or more bottle-feedings during the day. In such a case every effort must be made to get clean, milk, to keep it cool and prepare it in the right way. In order that the mother may nurse her baby successfully she should be gin about two months before the baby Is born to take care Of the nipples, washing them every day in warm wa ter and a mild soap, like castile, and, after drying them thoroughly, rub them gently with vaseline olive oil, or some other softening application. When the baby is about six hours old he may be put to the breast, and .then at six-hour intervals for the first day or two, until the mother's milk "comes." After that he should be uursed every three hours from six o'clock in the morning until nine in the evening, nursing him regularly, by the clock. For the first thiee months he will need a night feeding, but after four months he should sleep through the night without nursing. When the baby is six months old-the mother should begin to lengthen the interval between feedings a quarter of an hour each week until the length of time be tween ' nursings . is four hours. . The baby needs no other food than breast milk, except plenty of good drinking water (which has first been boiled and cooled) for the first eight or nine months. The nursing mother should have plenty of .good food. . All good food is milk-maldng food. What is impor tant is that it; should please ithe moth er's taste, tempt her appetite and cause her no headache, coated tongue or gas on the stomach or bowels. If the mother is well, the baby is pretty sure to be well. Among the things that most nursing mothers will digest well and thrive on are fresh vegeta blesnourishing soups, good breat and butter; milk sweet milk and butter milkeggs, meat fish, poultry and fruits raw and cooked. Some of the things that may give her indigestion are heavy puddings, underdone cereals, dumplings, too-fresh bread and biscuit, pastries, or a lack of fresh vegetables and fruit from the diet. It is better to cut down the allowance of tea and coffee to one cupful of ' each a day. Plenty of good drinking. water is need led and it is a good plan for he mother to have' milk between meals and at tedtime. .... The nursing mother, should have plenty of sleep at night, and should learn to relax and rest whenever the baby nurses .throughout the day. As far as possible she should be relieved of the heaviest part of the household work, because if she is tired and worn the baby will not thrive as he should, as the mother's food has had to go to supply her own needs and her milk has been deprived of jsome" of its nour ishing qualities.
