Lecturer in Agricultural Chemistry in the University of Leeds.

Extract

The object of the present communication is to collect together and compare the data obtained in the principal investigations which have been carried out in this country during the past five years into the variations in composition of the milk of the cow. The results of many of these experiments have been published only in annual reports or as special bulletins with limited and more or less exclusively local circulation.

page 169 note 1 It is possible of course that the effects ascribed to the weather conditions may in many cases arise only indirectly therefrom. Thus rain after drought will considerably affect the succulence of the herbage and may thereby produce an effect on the milk-secretion.
