INFANT FEEDING.
The effects of wrong feeding in
adult life, including those of alcohol
ism and other forms of intemperance,
are undoubtedly hereditary whether
the habits of alcoholism, tobacco and
unnatural eating are transmissible or
not. We know that the vitality of the
infant is determined by the vitality of
the parents—though not altogether by
the average vitality—and- the powers
of nutrition are the fundamental pow
ers transmitted to offspring.
We may not always be able to trace
family history in eyes and lungs, but
we can always find it in stomach and
liver and intestines.
The food of the young dog, horse,
cow, ape and human, in common with
all other mammalia, is milk. The nat
ural food of the mature dog is flesh;
that of the others is vegetable. The
digestive systems of the ape and man
resemble, slightly, that of the dog;
not. I think, as some argue, because
their natural food is largely flesh, but
because nuts closely resemble flesh,
chemically. The gorilla has "canine”
teeth, but it is a strict vegetarian. The
boar's "canine" teeth are his means
of defense.
Albumen, the chief constituent of
flesh, is digested chiefly in the stom
ach by the action of the gastric fluid.
Accordingly, the intestine of the dog
is short m proportion, the stomach be- j
ing 60 per cent, of the entire digestive
tract. The cow's stomach is very com
plicated; she has. in fact, four stom
achs. This is because her natural !
food requires much dilution with sa- j
liva and rumination before it can be
passea on 10 me intestine. not. ina. i
proteid is the chief element of the ;
cow's food, as in the dog.
Now the stomach of the cow plays
a much more important part, relatively i
to the intestinal digestion, than in ;
man. Cow's milk is, chemically and j
mechanically, adapted to this physio
logical difference. It does not as soon I
break up into small curds, and is. i
therefore, retained longer in the calf’s :
stomach. This peculiarity partly ex- :
plains the difficulty of digesting cow's
milk and should be considered in any I
attempt to modify cow's milk so as to |
adapt it to infant feeding.
We know that the health of the in- 1
fant, its nervous moods, its physical
health and temper in general, are in
fluenced by those of the mother, i
through the food. This alone would in
dicate the impossibility of perfect j
adaptation of cow's milk to infant
feeding. At best it is unnatural, but
os it is in many cases necessary, part
ly or entirely, we must make the most
of it. An imperfectly nourished child
is more liable to diseases of child
hood and survives with greater dif
ficulty. Food is not, of course, the
only requirement for health, but it is ^
fundamental.
While the food of all young mam
malia is milk, yet the milk is adapted
to their varying development and j
varies to a large degree, as the food of j
the parent. The milk of the dog, for ,
Instance, typical of flesh-eating ani
mals, contains about six times as
much proteid as that of non-flesh eat
ers, including man. The proteid in hu
man milk is about one-third that in
cow s and sheep's milk. Wool requires
a large percentage of proteid, and the
cow as she exists to-day produces
three times as much solids, including
fat, as most other herbivorous ani
mals, largely because the demand for
“rich” milk has caused the rejection
of those animals that yielded thin
milk. The fat, however, in rich dairy
cow’s and human milk is nearly
equal, but the sugar in the former is
only about half. The fat in dog's milk
Is three times that in human milk,
the sugar one-third. This variation in
dicates that fruit sugar should form
a large part of the food of infants, as
af children and adults. The supply of
candy to children, or of cane sugar, in
the form of cheap candies, poisoned
with coloring matters, instead of fruit
sugar, which is an important element
of the natural diet, is a serious error.
In cases in which cow's milk must
be used, care should be taken to see
that the cow is healthy, unless herd
miiK is usea, mat no preservative is
used, that the bottles and other ves
sels with which it comes in contact
are washed well with boiling water,
never with river or cistern water, that
it is not unnecessarily exposed to dust
or barnyard contamination, for milk
absorbs bacteria as a sponge absorbs
water and they develop very rapidly.
The feeding bottle should be thorough
ly washed in boiling water after and
before using. It is best to have two,
the one not in use kept immersed in a
solution of common baking soda.
Cow’s milk can not be made iden
tical with the infant’s natural food;
but it can be approximated to it. The
chief difficulty to be overcome is to
modify the large curds of cow’s milk
that tend to remain in the stomach
longer than they should, as the de
velopment of the calf’s stomach re
quires that its food shall have a much
heavier curd than that required by the
infant, in which intestinal digestion
is more important. The use of lactic
tablets, as explained in my last ar
ticle, entirely obviates this difficulty
besides overcoming other objections
to the use of cow’s milk.
To reduce the proportion of the ele
ments in cow’s milk to approximately
the standard of human milk, pour off
about half of the fat that settles to
the top of the bottle; add as much wa
ter as the whole amount of milk and a
tablespoonful of sugar. Milk sugar is
to be preferred to cane sugar, always
objectionable. The addition of a lit
tle lime water is, in many cases, bene
ficial.
As a rule infants, like adults, are
overfed. No doubt one of the rea
sons for the greater endurance and
freedom from disease of wild anim&lii
is the fact that the young are lestt
likely to be overfed, as every natural
ist knows. An infant probably would!
starve in one-tenth the time that ar
adult can subsist without food, bu(
eating too often and too much be
comes a habit with the infant as with
the adult. An infant mey cry for food
when it is food drunk; what it may
need is water. And children cry for
other reasons than because they are
hungry. Stopping an infant's cry con
tinually with food is easy but unwise.
Nature provides an extremely light
diet for the first few days of infancy.
Once every two hours is often
enough for the first month and every
third hour thereafter. If there is a
real demand between the periods,
sweetened water should be given (dis
tilled or boiled water and milk sugar).
Constant overfeeding causes an abnor
mal appetite, as in the adult, that is
never satisfied.
No definite rule can be laid down as
to the amount required. The best that
has been suggested is, an ounce for
each month, beginning with two
ounces, increasing to eight ounces at
eight months, after which full milk
will be used. Moderate, judicious ex
ercise now becomes important. A
child needs exercise before it can
walk. The freer its opportunities for
movement the better.
The infant digestive system is not
adapted to cereal food, always a cause
of more or less digestive difficulty and
expenditure of vitality, even in the
adult. Under no circumstances shouW
white bread, moistened with tea, cof
fee, milk or gravy be given to an in
fant.
There are many infant foods on the
market, composed of cereals or of
cereals with milk, malted. In cases of
milk poisoning, or of serious digestive
disorder resulting from unbalanced
feeding, due to the inadaptability of
cow’s milk, something must be sub
stituted for the milk, but it does not
follow that because a child improves
on the substitution of one of these
prepared cereals it is better
as a permanent diet. It is also well
to keep in mind that a child is not
healthy merely because it is fat. It
may be failing to develop the diges
tive system normally, it may become
so ."flabby’’ that it will fall a prey
to disease when the fatty degenera
tion has reached its limit and the con
ditions are favorable for disease.
l ne common practice, when cows
milk disagrees, is to adapt the milk
by mixing it with oatmeal or barley
water. This cereal tends to break up
the ccarse curd of cow’s miik, but it
is in itself unsuitable, though the
remedy is belter than the disease; the
prepared foods are better as the
cereal in them is malted.
Cereal foods are digested with dif
ficulty bv the adult and should not
be given freely to children. Coarse
bread, never less than two days old,
is preferable to fine white bread
which a child should never be given
fresh.
At the age of one year a very small
quantity of pulverized fresh peanut
may be taken, at noon, in water, form
ing a peanut cream, and the amount
very gradually increased till at two
it forms half the diet. A small piece
of zwiebach may now be added to the
evening meal and very gradually in
creased till it becomes one-half, by
weight, of the evening meal, when
both should be continued.
At three, the regular diet of c'uild
hcod should be fully established. At
seven in the morning a drink of wa
ter with lemon juice and only enough
sugar to make it acceptable; at eight,
apple, cantaloupe, ripe banana or oth
er froit; nothing else, unless water is
railed for. At ten as much artificial
buttermilk as can be taken; at noon a
slice or more of whole wheat or com
bination cereal bread with pulverized
peanut. If the child is really hungry
and healthy he will eat this.
At three give the modified milk.
At six zwiebach with honey or, if pre
ferred. prunes only. Give water as
often as called for between meals, but
nothing else.
Let the solicitous parent be fully as
sured that this diet will develop the
highest qualities of body and mind
and that sickness will be avoided, if
the child is properly aired, watered,
exercised and amused and protected
from stagnated, foul air, bad water
and sudden changes of temperature
or too much clothing in warm weather.
The goat is the healthiest of all ani
mals, always free from tuberculosis.
Its milk is in every respect superior
to cow's as a substitute in infant
feeding, and it ought to be adopted
for general use. there being no rea
sonable objection but lack of knowl
edge of the facts.
It is a poor goat that will not give
from one to four quarts of milk a day,
and it costs no more to feed than a
dog, where there is a fair-sized back
yard.
tests show that goat’s milk approxi
mates to the natural infant’s food
more closely than does cow’s milk. Di
gestive tests indicate it to be three
times more digestible, the curds be
ing much finer and the fat far more
soluble.
Absolute cleanliness and freedom
from disease is, however, the chief
recommendation of goat’s milk.
“Go to the hills and drink goat’s
milk,” was the prescription of Hippo
crates, the father of medicine, for
tuberculosis. We are making ’ the
search for a cure for “the great white
plague” a serious matter, as it should
be. but the true cure is at least fully
suggested in the method of the Greek
physician.
Dr. Koch, the eminent discoverer of
the tuberculosis germ, says the bo
vine and the human germ are not the
same. Howevei this may be, milk
i from a tuberculous animal is unwhole
! some; it may furnish a medium for
the culture of tuberculosis. A case
is on record in which a farmer, pro
hibited from selling the milk of an in
fected herd, fed it to his hogs and
they were infected.
Now comparative anatomy and
1 physiology and evolution attest that
the nutritive system of the pig close
ly resembles man’s.
It is chiefly because of the superior
healthfulness, in general, of the goat,
and Its immunity from tuberculosis in
particular, that I have advocated the
substitution of goat’s for cow’s milk
in infant feeding.

Bouse for Girl
from
14 to 16 Years.
~T
i _ j
Ooth Jacket. 4
!. I
A Simple Blouse.
n in v w
Blouse for Girl from 14 to 16 Years.—Cream wincey is employed for this
blouse; two tucks are made from shoulder to bust each side; the trimming
consists of bands of embroidered galloon, round collar, down center front, and
round armholes and sleeve; the tight under-sleeves are buttoned nearly to the
elbow. ,
Materials required; Two and a half yards 30 inches wide, two and three
quarter yards trimming.
A Simple Blouse.—A firm kind of washing silk is admirable for a blouse
such as this; two inch-wide tucks are made from shoulder to bust, and about
six small ones between; the box-plait down center is covered with lace or
embroidery, a band of the same being taken down outside of sleeve. The deep
cuffs are of finely tucked silk.
Materials required: Four yards 22 inches wide, one and one-half yards
trimming.
Cloth Jacket.—Here is a practical, easily made jacket, in Amazon cloth
to match the skirt. It is fitted by a seam taken over the shoulder from edge
of basque, back and front. The front slightly wraps over below bust, and is
fastened by invisible hooks and eyes, and ornamented with buttons and cord
loops. Embroidered galloon outlines the neck. Felt hat trimmed with a
buckle and quills.
Materials required for jacket: Two and a half yards 4G inches wide, one
yard galloon, three buttons, four yards silk.
DESIGN FOR VISITING DRESS.
In Russet-Brown Velveteen and Fine
Face Cloth.
Here is a very elegant combination
>f russet-brown velveteen and fine face
I :loth. The plain trained skirt is of
| velveteen, so are the tight-fitting un
ier-sleeves. The overskirt and pina
fore bodice of the cloth are trimmed
with a Greek key pattern, worked with
gold and brown narrow braid; velvet
covered buttons form a further trim
ming.
l he yoke is or piece lace.
Hat in velvet of the color of the
skirt, lined with soft, pink satin, and
trimmed with a rosette of satin and a
long brown feather.
Materials required: For the dress,
nine yards velveteen, four yards
cloth 48 inches wide, several dozen
yards of narrow braid, three dozen
buttons, one-half yard piece lace.
High Boots of Tan.
As the winter weather advances
there is wider popularity for the
smart tan boot that laces or buttons
six and eight inches above the
ankle.
The extra heavy soles are not used
as much as they were for city streets.
They are kept for county roads. The
fashionable shoe has a sole of or
dinary thickness, is well arched, has
a. slightly rounded toe, and a high,
straight Spanish heel.
OLD FASHIONS COME BACK.
Ornaments Worn by Another Genera
tion Become Popular.
So much that is old has become new
that our grandmothers’ possessions
are being held up as the latest thing
in fashion. This is rot only true of
cloths,' scarfs, hair ornaments, high
heeled slippers, but of jewelry.
With the craze of Byzantine jewelry
has come the revival of three kinds of
ornaments worn by another genera
tion.
These are corals, seed pearls and
rameos. All three are in the height of
style.
Necklaces of seed pearls are almost
13 valued as diamond ones these days.
Brooches of them are sought after and
worn with great pride.
Cameos, if good, are now worn on
the most elaborate evening gowns as
well as for street. Large ones set in
Qligree gold or seed pearls are used
for the shoulder clasp or the front of
the bodice or a belt buckle; the small
er ones are quite fashionable to catch
turnover collars together, to fasten a
jit Dot, or to pin a bow of ribbon.
CHINTZ HANGINGS ARE LIKED.
Especially for Bedrooms That Have a
Chilly Aspect.
For inside curtains heavy linen
either natural linen color, in white oi
colors, is very popular. They are se
lected, of course. In accordance with
the fittings of the room and are
trimmed either with applique of linen
in contrasting colors, with braid or
embroidery in heavy linen thread.
Chintz bangings are also very popular
and chintz and cretonne are now
shown in a more remarkable variety
of colors and designs than ever be
fore. There is quite a fad at the mo
ment for the blue and white or the
red and white chintz hangings for use,
of course, in rooms suitably decorated.
The wall of a room, for instance, may
be in pale gray or white and gray
when blue and white or red and white
chintz will be used for hangings and
upholstery. These chintzes are not
quite so striking as they sound, the
red chintz, in fact, being quite mild in
effect. The color is a light and rather
dull red and the patterns show a great
deal of white. For some bedrooms,
such, for instance, as have a rather
chilly aspect, these chintzes are ad
mirable. They seem more suitable for
men's rooms than the flowered chint
zes in pink and green, lavender and
yellow which are so charming.
The Pierrot Ruff.
A Pierrot ruff, but having a huge
bow at the side in which little Pierrot
would not have known himself, is one
of the pretty little gifts to pass from
friend to friend. Choose marquisette,
crisp chiffon, net or point d'esprit in
one of the catawba or wistaria shades.
Iluffs of these exclusive colors may be
found in some of the shops, or the
materials may be bought and carefully
doubled and quilled into shape. The
very full quillings are then fastened
on to a soft fold of silk of the same
shade, measured to fit the neck. The
bow of satin ribboj is, again, the iden
tical color, and be sure the match is
perfect.
While it is very lovely to say “tie
on with a big soft bow,” it is far
wiser to caution the giver to have the
bow tied permanently, and to fasten
Pierrot’s ruff with a hook and eye.
Frills on Muffs.
A pretty fashion is that of adding a
frill of soft satin or closely plaited
chiffon to the , lower edge of fur
muffs.
Brown is used with all brown furs,
black with black and white with such
furs as ermine and white fox.
When furs are scant this addition is
a decided improvement.
The immense round muff3 that are
forcing their way to the fore have the
cosiest-looking arrangement of quilled
and primly looped ribbon at the ends
where the hands are received.
Plans for Bedrooms.
Instead of a double bed take two
single bedsteads, remove the upper
part of the footboard, put the two
ends together in one corner of the
room, make a bed on each. Then you
have the center and the sides of the
room for other things.
It is also nice for a larger room that
is to be occupied by two individuals
or elderly people, for they can each
have their own bed and can often
wait on and be company for each oth
er many times when otherwise they
would have to be alone.
And it is a good way to fix the
little girl's or boy's room, so that
when they have chums come to see
them and stay over night they will
have a nice spare bed for them in
their own room.
Rosebud Hatpins.
The latest novelty in hatpins is the
natural rosebud or half-grown flower
which, by some wonderful process, is
transformed in all its perfect beauty I
of form and color into an imperishable I
substance. Nestling in the fur or >
foliage of a smart hat, they add the I
newest touch of elegance. j
A HOG COT GOOD FOR
SUMMER OR WINTER
A-Shaped Structure Which Is Equipped with a Door and
a Ventilating System.
The A-shaped hog cot Is adapted
to both summer and winter condi
tions. It has a permanent floor, a
door in each end, and a ventilating
system. It is constructed by nailing
inch boards on six joists, two inches
by four inches, eight feet long for
the floor. Heneath the joists are
nailed three stringers, two inches by
six inches eight feet long, which serve
as runners for moving the house. Next
is spiked a piece two inches by eight
inches, nine feet four inches long, at
the ends of the joists, having the bot
tom of the two inch by eight inch even
with the bottom of the joist which
will allow it to project above the floor
three inches. It will also extend out
seven inches at each end. This two
inch by eight inch forms a plate to
which the rafters and roof boards are
nailed. The seven-inch extension of
the plate at the ends supports the low
A rear door, identical in size with
the front door, is held in place by
cleats nailed across it on the inside
and by buttons fastened on the out
side. This door is not opened regu
larly, but provides ventilation in sum
met and aids in handling sows at far
rowing time. Above the rear door is
a small sliding door, 8x12 inches, to
admit light and air.
Another important feature of this
house is the ventilator, which is a
small cap covering a hole at the top
and the center of the roof. The hole
is made by sawing off opposite ends
of two roof boards and covering it
with a cap so arranged as to leave
openings three inches by 12 inches on
each side of the roof. This is suffi
cient ventilation for two or three ani
mals when all the doors are shut, and
if more ventilation is desired it can
easily be secured by opening the small

er corners of the roof which other
wise would be easily split off. These
2x8’s, besides strengthening the house,
raise the rafters and roof boards
nailed to them at least three inches
off the floor and thereby materially in
crease the floor space and the capac
ity of the house. If the house is to be
used in extremely cold weather a
movable door is necessary. The illus
tration shows a door two feet wide
and two feet six inches high, made
to slide up and down and held in place
by cleats. It is suspended by a rope
which passes through a pulley at the
top and is fastened to a cleat at the
side near the roof. The cut also shows
two iron eyes bolted into the front
joist of the building to which the
hitch is made when the building is
moved.

plan of ventilation avoids any direct
drafts upon the animals and proves
very efficient.
With these improvements the cost
in building the A-shaped house is
somewhat increased. All the boards
except those used for the floor should
be dressed on one side.
The following lumber is necessary
to construct this portable house: Nine
pieces 1x12 in., 16 feet long, and 11
O. G. battens 16 feet long for roof: 5

plates: 7 pieces 2x4 in.. 16 feet long,
for rafters and braces in frame; 3

Lost Art Rediscovered.
A chemical discovery, or rather re
discovery of what was an old Roman
secret known to have been used about
GOO years ago, is a liquid preparation
to prevent iron rust and wall damp
ness. When applied to the bottom
plates of ships it is said to prevent ox
idation, animal or vegetable marine
parasites and growths and, besides
preserving the life of the iron plates,
will also add to. the speed of liners
and warships. When the inside of a
ship is coated over with this liquid
it stops the “weeping" of the inner
skins of the iron sides, which, as ship
pers so well know, is so often the
cause of much damage to ships' car
goes.
Freshly plastered rooms when paint
ed with the same preparation admit of
mmediate occupancy or decoration, as
the paper can be applied without de
lay o*- damage. The tests have ex
tended over a period of many months,
and the results have been announced
as successful.
Have Plenty of Litter.—If hens are
confined to the poultry house on cold
days see to it that they do not have
to stand on the bare floor. Use straw,
corn stalks, corn husks, or other dry
material for a floor covering. Hens
with cold feet will not lay very many
eggs.
A Word of Caution.—Too much dry
feed and too little exercise is bound to
cause impaction of the digestive sys
tem. Don’t let this happen to your
sheep—it is so easy to avoid it.
Provide Plenty of Water.—Although j
turkeys will eat snow, they should
not be permitted to do so, but should
be given plenty of fresh clean water.
They Sell Best.—When raising tur
keys for market medium sized ones
will be found better than extra large j
ones. t 1
