worth been proven in the case of deU- 

 cate and faiHng infants, surpassing any 

 known preparation as an artificial food 

 for babes not nurtured at the mother's 

 breast, and, Hkewise, for the aged, 

 infirm and ailing, having almost a reme- 

 dial virtue in many instances; while as 

 an article for general use, in addition 

 to its superiority in other food elements, 

 its supreme excellence lies in the fact of 

 the large preponderance it possesses, 

 over other milks in use, in the life-giving 

 property of vitamines. 



FREEDOM FROM DISEASE GERMS 



The long-reputed freedom of the hir- 

 cine tribe, comparatively with all other 

 158 



domestic animals, from tubercular and 

 other disease germs, appears to be well 

 authenticated. From time immemorial 

 the reputation of this mountain rumi- 

 nant for general hardiness and health- 

 fulness has been universally conceded, 

 its very presence with other animals 

 being popularly believed to have a pre- 

 ventive, if not curative effect, in the 

 case of many ailments. Although not 

 proven absolutely immune to the fatal 

 malady of tuberculosis, yet the goat 

 tribe, as a whole, has been found vir- 

 tually proof against invasion by its 

 fearful virus, even inoculation with it, 

 in tests made, being effectually resisted.
