It will be noticed that protein was stored constantly during 
the experiment, showing that the dietary furnished more of 
total nutrients and of nitrogenous material than was necessary 
for nitrogen equilibrium under the circumstances. 
The amounts of food eaten varied from day to day in 
accordance with the inclinations of the subjects of the experi- 
ments. ‘This doubtless explains in large part the daily varia- 
tions in the nitrogen excretion.
