Extract

Data are given which show that the solids-not-fat content of the milk produced in a certain dairying area in the early months of 1942 and 1943 was unusually low, a high proportion of the individual herds yielding milk containing less than the presumptive standard of 8·5% solids-not-fat. The freezing-point depression of this milk was normal. The solids-not-fat content showed substantial improvement in May. It is suggested that the low level of solids-not-fat was due to a low plane of nutrition of the cow.
