Health Service Of the Canadian Medical Association —_—— MILK AND TUBERCULOSIS The value of. milk is not limited to As the child grows he nees to enlarge his diet, but milk continues to be the most important areticle in this diet during the years of growth. Every child should have one pint of milk a day to- provide the necessary snawins substance for the body. ‘Young children have very little re- _|sistance to tuberculosis. In their earl- est they are easily overcome by this diseuse, There are tro types of ‘tub- erculosis germ, two membersof the same family as it were, which cause /|er nuniber .of cases are caused by the and the bovine type. By far the great- tuberculosis in children - the human huinan type. The . bovine type is re- sponsible for about 25 per cent of all tuberculosis occourring among ‘children In children, tuberculosis often attacks the bone and joints,and so is respons- sible for much crippling. The bovine type of the tuberculosis ‘|eoines from cows suffering from tub- the child | erculosis, and reaches through milk. As a large percentage of milch cows ‘have tuberculosis, it fol- lows that a of milk is infected with the bovine type of tnberculosis germs. From this it is evident that, unless the necessary precautions rve taken milk erculosis among children. It is part of any campaign against tubercuiosis or towards the improre- ment of child health to see that the milk supply is safe and pure. A safe, pure milksupply, free from all danger of carring ijuberculosis or any other disease to. human beings, particularly children, comes from healthy cows,is produced and shipped in a cleanly way, is pasturized to killany disease verms is kept cold and couvered untill used. ds this the kind of milk You and your children use, Questions “eoncerning healtn sd- dressed to the Canadian Medical Asso- ‘|elation, 184 College St., Toronto, will be answered, Questions as to ding- n¢esig nnd treatment will not jie gns- swered, Men Marooned Coutinued from Page 2 “Good-bys, boys!” he called to: the white shapes by the sled. “You gave us all you had.
