GRASS AND VITAMINES.

For two years a dairy cow has held an honoured position at the Elstree Farm, which is nnder the direction of the Lister Institute. Observations have been kept daily for two years on the effect upon her or different kinds of diet. A gradual diminution was observed in the quantity of the vitamines in the milk as the conditions of the animal wv changed from pasture to a winter roller of roots, grain, and straw, an<l n '<vipro-' cal increase as the diet woe chnnged back to green food, culminating in a maximum on turning out t tnrnial again to pasture in the summer.
