Why Take TMs Risk With Your Baby ? . N Reprinted, from. "Tfu Dominion," Tuesday, . 30th May, iggi. THE CITY'S MILK. - m HAS MUNICIPAL CONTROL FAILED? AN OPINION THAT IT HAS "When is the Press going to take up the serious position of the city milk supply ?" inquired a citizen ■of a. /" Dominion" reporter last week. "It is / high time the whole question was re- > viewed, and come drastic step taken to compel an improvement in present methods." "The City Counoil," lie continued, "originally took over the milk supply of the city in order to reducs the cost from the producer to'i the consumer. No doubt the Council had the best intentions in the world when they embarked upon the scheme, but the result has been another proof of the muddlement and chaos which inevitably follow Government or municipal interference with private enterprise. The City Council, in starting out, loudly declared, ' We will give the citizens cheap ' ' ' and fresh milk.' What has been the 1 ■ I result ? The cost of milk to-day is just double what it was when the City Council took over the scheme. " But the doubled cost is not the worst : feature," he went;on. ",We are to-day, owing to municipal muddlement, com- : pelled to use milk which is three days old. This is a very serious menace to the" health of the community, AND MUST • HAVE A MOST INJURIOUS EFFECT UPON THE INFANT LIFE OF THE CITY. To give an example : TUESDAY NIGHT'S MILK IS COLLECTED BY THE CITY VANS ON WEDNESDAY MORNING. IT IS BROUGHT INTO- , / THE -CITY, AND TREATED AT THE . DEPOTS, AND IS DELIVERED AS FRESH MILK ON THE THURSDAY ■ MORNING. THOSE PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT SERVED BEFORE BREAKfast on thursday morning have consequently to use ■ this mile: on their porridge on friday morning, and, worse still; baby has also to use it / -- IN HIS BOTTLE. Here we have milk . . , taken from the cow on Tuesday night being used on the breakfast table on Friday morning. Just iniagine what amount of bacteria mu»t be in this milk! Of' course, if the milk was not treated at v - the city milk depot it would be sour long before it reached the consumer. The position is scandalous, and should not be permitted to continue." Banishes Risk of Milk-Borne Disease. Is Best for Baby, and for You, too! Did you read the above important statement in the "Dominion?" We have emphasised portions of this statement, the sound common sense of which must appeal to every Mother of a Baby in Wellington. Sterilising and pasteurising' dirty milk will not' make it clean, nor will it make sour milk fresh, not will any manipulations"of unsuitable milk make it suitable for Baby. Within three hours after milking, the lactose commences to undergo a chemical change into lactic acid. Nature lias commenced her work of destruction, and milk begins , to sour. The only way of overcoming" the risks and dangers that lie hidden in milk is to treat it as soon as it comes from. : ':; the cow. - t And this is what is done in the manufacture of Glaxo. Milk is delivered at the Glaxo Factories from October to March twice a day, so that the freshness and purity of the milk from which Glaxo is made is retained., The Glaxo Process extracts the water from the milk, and., transforms the solids into a pure, germ-free powder, which is. packed in bags, enclosed in air-tight: tins, and; reaches the consumer free from bacteria, uncontaminated by flies, dust, and dirt. • A Further than this, the Glaxo Process alters the character of the curd, so that unlike the curd of ordinary milk, which forms a heavy, indigestible clot* in Baby's stomach, the curd in Glaxo forms into tiny flaky, particles, like,the lact-albumen of breast milk. .Give your children plenty of milk and milk dishes, but let the'milk be PURE nrilk, let it be x ■ /. . ■■ . ■ : :''-' :'■''■■ "■''.'■ '• The Super Milk SEND THIS COUPON for Glaxo Recipe Books, etc. To GLAXO, (Dept. 3), P.O.
