G. The Effect of Salt Hays on the Composition of Milk. 



COMPOSITION OF THE MIXED MILK. 



In experiment I, the fat and total solids show a slight increase in 

 the English hay period, the increase in total solids being due to the 

 increase in the percentage of fat. In experiment II the fat percent- 

 age is also slightly higher in the P'nglish hay period, while the solids 

 not fat are lower. The fat increased at the expense of the other 

 ingredients. In experiment III the total solids and fat show a 

 slight increase in the English hay period, the total solids increasing 

 because of the actual increase in the fat percentage. Experiment 

 IV shows very slight variations. Experiment V shows a noticeable 

 decrease in the fat percentage in the English hay period and a cor- 

 responding increase in the percentage of solids not fat. In experi- 

 ment VI a slight increase is noted in the English hay period, in both 

 fat and solids not fat.
