THE AMOUNT OF TOTAL NUTRIENTS BUT LITTLE CHANGED 
AND THE PROTEIN INCREASED. 
The average of 44 records when, without change in the amount 
of nutrients, the protein was increased, shows about the normal 
diminution of the milk flow. There was moderate gain in 
weight, somewhat more rapid after the change of ration.
