But until a few years ago it was, owing to the high cost of Imported sugar of milk "The principal elememt in woman's milk Is the engar of milk." Pmf. jy 3il and the fact that it was largely adulterated, impossible to prepare a food that could tie sold at a reasonable price, lhe discovery by A. Babln, professor of chemistry In the Unlversilv of Vermont, of a process for making sugar of milk, made possible the preparation of a food that would contain all the elements for the Deffect nourishment ot an Infant. With sugar of milk as a basis.
