THE STORY OF MILK 



Mrs. Rorer^s Recipe 



Where cow's milk, even when diluted, or parity modified as in 

 the home fashion, disagrees with the infant, this mixture may be 

 used with good results: heat two quarts of milk to 100° F. Add 

 two Junket Tablets dissolved in a tablespoonful of cold water. 

 When the milk is congealed and perfectly solid draw through it 

 backward and forward an ordinary four-tined silver fork; this will 

 separate the curd. Strain through two thicknesses of cheese-cloth, 

 saving the whey as this is the part you are to use; add a pint of 

 water, a half ounce of sugar of milk, three ounces of cream and 

 four ounces of the white of egg. The whites may be dropped into 

 a quart fruit jar, a pint of the whey added, the top screwed on and 

 the jar thoroughly shaken until the whites are well mixed with 

 the whey; then add them to the remaining quantity and stand at 

 once in a very cold place. This will be given in quantities from 

 two to three ounces in an ordinary nursing bottle.
