2i 4 MILK AND ITS HYGIENIC RELATIONS 



tions, and it has been the practice Oi the physicians at this institu- 

 tion for some years, to recommend dried milk for such cases as 

 require artificial feeding, either entirely or as supplementary to 

 breast-feeding. This milk has been used for several thousands 

 of children, although the precise figures are not available. The 

 infants are kept under medical supervision. Naish states that he 

 has obtained very good results with the use of this form of milk, 

 and that no disadvantages have been observed. Summing up the 

 considerations advanced, he says : ' We have in dried milk a food 

 which contains the same substances as cows' milk and in the same 

 proportions (except when humanised), which is adjustable to a 

 wider range of infants, which has obvious advantages of storage 

 and distribution, and which appears to have no danger of the later 

 nutritional disorders/ 



Generally favourable results have also been obtained in other 

 places of which no published information is available. Further 

 data as to the use of dried milk are given in Chapter XIII, dealing 

 with the alleged production of scurvy and rickets, and also in 

 Appendix E. 



The manufacture of dried milk is described in Appendix F.
