Excerpt from Lectures in Pediatrics to the North Carolina Postgraduate Course, 1916 Pediatrics, or diseases of children, 1s naturally divided into a number of sections, of which the most impor tant is the feeding of infants and the treatment of the diarrheal diseases of infancy. My lecture today is somewhat of an introductory lec ture, taking up breast feeding and a short introduction to artificial feeding. We have to go a great deal into theory, but I am going to ask you to take an interest in it, because it is absolutely necessary and fundamental as a basis on which to work. In the first place, I am going to teach you the so-called percentage method, which is used in Boston, more than in any other city. In the old days of infant feeding there was no science at all of any sort. A little milk and water was mixed and fed to the baby, without know ing what he was getting of food value; of fat, sugar, etc. Some babies got along very well on this. But, as you know, some will get along on almost anything; some need the utmost care. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
