Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Roots for the Dairy Cow Four feeding trials were run in which mangels were compared with corn for milk production when fed on the dry-matter basis. As far as possible all other factors were balanced in the two groups, and the single reversal feeding method was used so that the same animals might receive the different rations. Data were kept also on the amount of water consumed from the drinking cups and the amount obtained from the succulent feed.

Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1919 edition. Excerpt: ...of taking nitrogen from the air, fixing it in the soil and furnishing it to the growing plants. Without the existence of nodules on the roots legumes do not grow Well, and, if they did, they would be no more valuable; than nonleguminous plants for feeding purposes, because no nitrogen would be gathered from the air to build protein in the plants. Potash and phosphorus are not taken from the air, but, because of the great depth to which legumes send their numerous roots, these two essentials for plant growth are brought to the surface and made available for other crops with less root system. The final value of the legume as a fertilizer is brought about by the decaying of the many fibrous roots, which process adds humus to the soil. Humus is not a fertilizing element but its value is physical in that it loosens the particles of earth and permits the air to enter, warms the soil and adds to its moisture-retaining efficiency. Great as are these values, much of the advantage gained by raising legumes is lost if they are sold in their raw state, for, although they leave as much nitrogen in the soil as is removed by the stems, each ton sold off the farm carries with it much potash and phosphorus taken from the earth. To be most valuable they must be fed to livestock, and the manure returned to the land. In the feeding of the legume the direct value becomes apparent, for the very nitrogen stored in the plant represents the protein which is the costly nutrient that is so essential in balancing rations, and the necessary nutrient from which bone, muscle, blood, hair, horns, and the proteids of milk are made. The legume is the only plant which can be grown upon the farm to eliminate or even lessen the necessity of purchasing high-priced commercial...

Download or read book Milk written by Deborah Valenze and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2011-06-28 with total page 469 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The illuminating history of milk, from ancient myth to modern grocery store. How did an animal product that spoils easily, carries disease, and causes digestive trouble for many of its consumers become a near-universal symbol of modern nutrition? In the first cultural history of milk, historian Deborah Valenze traces the rituals and beliefs that have governed milk production and consumption since its use in the earliest societies. Covering the long span of human history, Milk reveals how developments in technology, public health, and nutritional science made this once-rare elixir a modern-day staple. The book looks at the religious meanings of milk, along with its association with pastoral life, which made it an object of mystery and suspicion during medieval times and the Renaissance. As early modern societies refined agricultural techniques, cow's milk became crucial to improving diets and economies, launching milk production and consumption into a more modern phase. Yet as business and science transformed the product in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, commercial milk became not only a common and widely available commodity but also a source of uncertainty when used in place of human breast milk for infant feeding. Valenze also examines the dairy culture of the developing world, looking at the example of India, currently the world's largest milk producer. Ultimately, milk’s surprising history teaches us how to think about our relationship to food in the present, as well as in the past. It reveals that although milk is a product of nature, it has always been an artifact of culture.

Download or read book Root Cellars in America written by James E. Gage and published by Powwow River Books. This book was released on 2018-03-01 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For most people, the term “root cellar” evokes an image of a brick or stone masonry subterranean structure tunneled into a hillside. These classic root cellars are only one of a number of different types of structures used to preserve root crops, vegetables and fruits over the past 400 years. The other structures include subfloor pits, cooling pits, house cellars, barn cellars, field root pits & trenches, and root houses. Root Cellars in America provides a history of all the structures, discusses their design principles, and details how they were constructed. The text is accompanied by period illustrations from the agricultural literature along with archaeological photographs. There has been a long standing debate whether the stone slab roof and corbelled beehive shaped subterranean structures in northeastern United States are root cellars or Native American ceremonial stone chambers. New research indicates some are root cellars and some are ceremonial chambers. The third edition has a new chapter exploring this topic. Detailed guidance is provided on how to distinguish the two from each other based on differences in their architectural traits.
