Page 314 - Many of the failures to protect water supplies used for drinking are due to a lack of knowledge of the manner in which waters circulate through the ground, and of the ways in which the ground water may become polluted. The diagram, fig.
Page 93 - Annual Convention of the Association of American Agricultural Colleges and Experiment Stations, held at Washington, DC, November 1215, 1889.
Page 223 - This oxidation appears to be mainly nonenzymotic, the result of interaction between inorganic constituents and certain types of organic matter. It may also be brought about by organic matter in a state of autoxidation and by inorganic oxygen carriers, such as manganese and iron. Both processes activate oxygen.
Page 588 - No. 3, fed a ration having a nutritive ratio of i :8, one lamb was lost when some of the lambs were off feed, thus allowing others to over-feed. In the opinion of the persons who conducted this experiment, there should not be the wholesale loss from over-feeding that some feeders have experienced if proper precautions are taken to keep the rack spaces all occupied and to distribute the grain equally. There may be an occasional sheep that cannot stand the heavy feeding necessary for fattening, and...

Page 84 - ... 4. Certain diets, notably dextrose, oatmeal, liver, and kidney, greatly increase the resistance of mice to acetonitrile; their effect is similar in this respect to the administration of thyroid.
Page 173 - The experiments show that foods such as enter largely into the daily diet of man have most pronounced effects upon the resistance of animals to several poisons; they produce changes in metabolism which are not readily detectable by methods ordinarily used in metabolism studies. The ease and rapidity with which certain changes in functions are caused by diet are in striking contrast with the essentially negative results obtained by the chemical analyses of animals fed upon different diets.
Page 470 - ... had a notably greater tendency than the pure-bred steer to gain protein, while the pure-bred, on the other hand, was inclined to store up more fat. This result was confirmed also by chemical analyses of corresponding parts of the carcasses of the animals at the close of the experiments. Conclusions. Our general conclusion from the foregoing data, then, is that the two steers did not materially differ as regards digestive power, percentage of feed energy metabolized or percentage availability...
