to approximate very closely that of homogenized
milk.

[73] There are a number of pasteurizers on the market; one sold by the
Walker Gordon Laboratory and one designed by Dr. R. G. Freeman of New
York are both satisfactory.

[76] One-half tbs. barley flour may be cooked in the water used as
diluent; it should be boiled 20 minutes, strained and cooled before
adding to formula.

[77] When babies are fed upon pasteurized, sterilized, or dried milk
it is advisable to use orange or prune juice earlier than the seventh
month. Dr. Hess suggests the use of canned tomato juice as substitute
for orange juice.

foods.

CHAPTER X

CARE AND FEEDING OF INFANTS AND CHILDREN IN ABNORMAL CONDITIONS AND IN
INFECTIOUS DISEASES

~Digestive Disturbances.~--It is a well-established fact that
artificially fed infants are more subject to disturbances due to diet
than breast-fed infants, the digestional disturbances of the latter
yielding more readily to treatment. As a rule, with the breast-fed
baby it is largely a question of adjusting the diet of the mother, of
increasing the fluid in her diet, of seeing that she takes the
requisite amount of exercise in the open air, and of lengthening the
intervals between feedings or of giving the baby water just before
putting him to the breast. With the artificially fed infant it is an
entirely different proposition.

~Causes in Artificially Fed Infants.~--The digestive disturbances may
arise from any one of half a dozen or more causes. The constituents in
the milk may be in the wrong proportion. The amount given at a feeding
may be too great or too little. The dilution may be too great or too
small to meet the needs of the infant. Or the milk m
