( ovrlltM. l»l «* Sswtpieer Fsaiuri heta las Formula for Modifying Milk for Baby's Needs In I his, the fifth of the Series on infant feeding, l)r, Copeland Explains the Method of Making Con 's Milk Safe for the Baby Bv ROYAL S. COPELAND. M. 1> United States Senator from New York . former Commissioner of Health, Xew York Ct/ IN THIS series I have been at tempting to explain to the young mother the problems Involved in feeding her baby. As I have said on repeated occasions, i iv e d a d y is much better off it' it can be fed from the breast. But of course breast feeding is not possible in every in stance. The reason w h y mother’s milk is to be preferred to an artificial food, is because it is exactly suited to the needs of I Dr. Copeland the human infant Mother’* milk is more dilute than the milk of the lower animals, It is peculiar^ ly rich in fat, and fat of a re markably fine globule. This make* it much more readily di gested than the fat of cow's milk. The percentage of sugar In moth e-’s milk Is higher, while it contains s smaller proportion of protein. Be cause of these differences between human milk and cow's milk, ft Is necessary to make certain modifica tions In order to fit the cow’s milk to the digesUve requirements of the infant. If it were attempted to feed the child with the unchanged, un modified cow's milk, there would be digestive disorders at once, loss of weight, and general debility. The first thing we must do to prepare the cow's milk for the baby's needs Is to add water, to make It more dilute, more Ilk* human milk. But when we do this, we have les sened the proportions of fat and sugar. As a result, the calories, the heat-produqlng elements, are lacking To overcome this, the next step in modifying the milk U to add sugar and a certain amount of fat tri the form of cream. Just exactly what these proportions shall be, depends upon the age of the baby. Let me FEEDING BABY. This is the fifth of a series of eight articles on Infant Feeding, by Dr. Royal S. Cope land. In this series Dr. Cope land discusses every phase of this all-important question. The sixth article will appear on Thursday. gi'e you an namplc. For «n In fant one month old. the feeding for twenty-four hours would be made up as follows: Out of a total ot IS ounces there would be 3 ounces of cream from the top of the milk bottle. 2 ounces of skimmed milk, and 11 ounces or water. To this mixture would he added a little more than !> .table spoonfuls of milk sugar. Tint re sulting pint of prepared milk would have practically the same propor tions of ingredients as an equal quantity of breast milk. As the child grows older, the quail tlty of Cream would be increased slightly. At the same time, the skimmed milk content would be In creased, and the water materially de creased. until at six months of age not more than 5 ounces of water would be Included In the 16-ounce mixture. rFoi~mirr«~foFtIie~yetv~ RornHs t)e~~} The first food given to the new born babe would consist of H ounces of water, to which are added the other Ingredients. They would be. one ounce of cream, one ounce of skimmed milk, and a trifle more than 2 level tablespoonfuls of milk sugar. When larger quantities of food are required, the same proportions are maintained. It is the practice of some physicians to use barlev water or some other cereal water after the baby has reached the age of four months. I shall speak of this again In my next article, which will an. pear Thursday, it is my plan to sneak somewhat in detail about how these mixtures are made, and the care which must be exercised In their preparation Some advice will he given, too. regarding the total quan tity of formula-milk to give In each twenty-four hours. 5,000 HOMES RECEIVE THE STAR Every Other Day.
