results of Experiment H agree on the main point at issue with 

 those of Experiment Gr. The reader will note the number of 

 times the milk was under the standard in the morning, and it 

 is an interesting fact that lot I., as in Experiment Gr, was- 

 again the worse. 



Although on the general average the " solids not fat " were 

 satisfactory, they were on occasions very low, and in a con- 

 siderable number of cases in both lots, well below the standard 

 of 8'5 per cent. In comparing the two lots, it will be observed 

 that lot II. was throughout, on the average, superior to lot I. 

 Both experiments clearly show that the quality of the milk 

 was in no way improved by the use of the concentrated food.

 periment, the cows were weighed at the commencement and 

 at the end of each period of five weeks. The average weight
