Skim Milk Hotter than Cream.

Dr. J. A. Gilbert, in the Medical Record, emphasizes the conclusion that tlie milk which is. richest in cream is not the most nutritious, for the simple reason that the rich milk is less easily digested and absorbed titan the milk in which the fat percentage is low. The valuable proteid ingredients which go to the building up of the tissues, he says, remain very much the same in all varieties of cow's milk, and frequently skint milk is more flesh-forming titan rich milk. In the light of this conclusion. Dr. Gilbert questions the value of the Jersey cow, which sometimes gives milk so rich that it cannot suckle its own calf.
