From what has been said in the preceding pages, 

 we become aware that the end to be attained, is the 

 transformation of pure cow's milk into a milk, which, 

 in its nutritive elements, is analogous to mothers' milk, 

 the composition of which is of a constant uniformity) 

 and its keeping qualities allow of its being trans" 

 ported to great distances, and undergo all changes of 

 temperature experienced during summer transporta- 

 tion for a lengthened period, without spoiling or any 

 way changing. We have also seen that the first step 

 to be taken in this direction is the supervision of the 

 production of the raw material, the exaction of 

 scrupulous cleanliness in the keeping, of the milk 

 cows and the utensils employed, as well as an unre- 

 mittant control of all conditions influencing the phy- 

 sical welfare of the cows, and of the quality of the food 

 fed to them. 



In a subsequent chapter will be laid down what 

 should be exacted to insure a healthy condition of 

 the milk. We now pass on to the manufacture of 

 this milk into artificial mothers' milk — normal in-

 mothers' milk in the exact proportion of all nutritious
