INFLUENCE OF FEED ON MILK— WIDE AND NARROW RATIONS, 



(From " Feeds and Feeding," by Prof. W. A. Henry, Wisconsin 

 Experiment Station.) 



Feed in Relation to Milk, 



Possible modifications of Milk hy Feed. If feed has any influence on the 

 character of milk, we may suppose these modifications take one or more of 

 the following forms : — 



(A.) An increase or decrease in the total quantity of milk yielded: 



(B.) Increasing or decreasing the ratio of solids to water in the milk: 



(C.) Changing the ratio of one or more components of the milk with 

 relation to the others : 



(D.) Changing the chemical or physical character of one or more com- 

 ponents : 



(E.) Changing the flavour or odour of milk or derivatives from it. 



Let us consider these several and possible changes in the order presented.
