PREPARING BOTTLE
FEEDINGS
By Kenneth S. Shepard, M. D.
Director, Well Baby Clinics
Northwestern University
School of Medicine
The young mother who bottle
feeds her baby often asks if there
is any one special technique she
may use to prepare baby’s feedings.
My reply is there are four different
basic techniques from which she
may select the one she prefers.
First, there is the old-fashioned
sterile mass-production method. It ■
consists of making one or two days’
supply of bottles of formula. Every- <
thing must be sterilized in advance 1
and the supply put away in the re
frigerator. When a bottle is ,
needed, it is heated to body tern- '
perture or higher and given to the <
baby. ;
Then, there’s the terminal steri- j
lization method. This is much the i
same except that the batch of hot- <
ties may be made up without steri- 1
lization, then capped and heated to <
sterilize afterward. This lattei
method may save some time bu
las the minor disadvantage of fre
quent complaints of nipple-clog
?ing.
The third technique is the newei
sterile jar method. The formuli
is prepared sterile, and either pre
pared or poured into a sterile pre
serving jar and capped sterilely
rhe jar is stored in the refriger
itor, and, when milk is needed, i1
s poured into a clean (not sterile)
lursing bottle, and a clean, (no1
terile) nipple is placed on the bot
le. The bottle is then heated tc
Irinking temperature and given tc
he baby.
The fourth technique is the mod
;rn supply-and-demand method
Phe can of milk (evaporated oi
commercial modified) is washed
tnd the top is scalded. Two holes
ire made in the top, and an alum
num-foil or plastic cover is placed
in the can, which is put into the re
rigerator. When a nursing bottle
if formula is needed, the mother

takes a clean (not sterile) nursing '
bottle and pours a specified
amount of milk from the can into I
the bottle. She then pours a speci
fied amount of boiling hot water
into the bottle. The hot water and
the cold milk combine to make the [
right temperature, and the baby
can be fed at once.
Sterilizing prevents growth of ]
bacteria in milk or food when it ,
stands for a period of time. It is
1 not necessary to kill the bacteria
found in the clean bottle or the
milk. There are probably fewer
bacteria in the clean bottle and the
milk to begin with than on the
baby’s hand or the blanket or the
sheet which he puts into his mouth.

Book Review
“MY HOME IN THE ZOO”
By Gerald lies.
Published June 15, by Doubleday
& Co., Inc.
A leopardess who liked to stroll
through the zoo, a hippopotamus
with a “quite beautiful nature,”
an orangutan with a Mona Lisa
smile and a giraffe who was both
knock-kneed and bow-legged are
among the animals Gerald lies
writes about in “My Home in the
Zoo.”
Mr. lies, who was born in Som
erset, England in 1911, went to live
in the Belle Vue Zoo in Manchester
at the age of 17 and was zoo direc
tor at 21, a post he held for 25
years. In 1957 he went to Montreal,
where he now lives. He was direc
tor of the Montreal Zoological Park
until 1960.
One Belle Vue animal who liter
ally attached himself to Mr. lies
was a lonely young gibbon named
Chico. As soon as the crate in
which he had been shipped from
Bangkok was opened, he waddled
to Mr. lies, climbed up his trousers
and nestled under his chin. Three
days later Chico was still there, j
having left his position only when |
the zoo director was in bed.
Mr. lies also tells about Joey, a
young Chimpanzee who went to the
movies—a regular showing of “Her
Jungle Love,” starring Dorothy La- ■
mour; and three kittens who had
two unusual “aunts”—Wendy, a
gibbon who liked to hold one of the
kittens in her arms, and Louise, a
black-faced spider monkey, who
allowed them to play with her tail.
