Things are looking up . . . or arc they? ... it is just about

Subject of Nutrition'Surpasses All
Scientific Developments in Interest
.
C. W. Ackerson is shown feeding an experimental thick. If lat
est advices are correct, it does not in the least object to the pellet of
food being inserted in Its stomach.
By Prof. R. T. Prescott.
Probably, among people who try to keep informed on re
cent developments in science, there is no special scientific sub
ject that surpasses nutrition in interest, Here science touches
the inquisitive citizen in a sensitive spot. The best brains, he
will say, are none too good to use on the study of what to eat
and why; the best of equipmeniu-
and the best of methods ought to
be used in our studies of what
goes on in the body as regards the
intake, digestion, and assimilation
of food. Sincerely, yes. Nutrition
studies are comparatively new and
more and more attention is oeing
paid to them as time goes on.
Most of the work is carried on
with experimental animals, such as
rats and guinea pigs, or with farm
animals. Work with either of
these sorts of animals of course
has its relations to human nutri
tion and if properly managed has
its importance as a contribution to
human knowledge.
Dr. C. W. Ackerson, member of
the staff of the university agricul
tural college experiment station, is
at present carrying on fundamen
tal research work in nutrition
with chicks, and recently, in col
laboration with Professors M. J.
Blish and F. E. Mussehl, has pub
lished Research Bulletin 80, on
From Sunday Jourtml and biar.
The Utilization of Nitrogen, Cal
cium, and Phosphorus by the
Growing Chick." This bulletin re
ports some recently completed
work, while other work similar to
it is being carried on.
Chicks Advantageous.
Chicks offer the nutrition work
er several advantages. They can
be hand-fed from birth and thus
an accurate record of all the food
they take can be kept. They grow
fast and make it possible to com
plete an experiment in a short
time. They can be housed with
little expense and labor, and their
whole carcasses can be put in a
jar and decomposed chemically
with not too much trouble. Thus,
in addition to being farm animals
of commercial imnortancp. chicks
are suitable laboratory animals.
The long road towura mMing
the best poultry rations has been
traversed at some length, by the
various experiment stations the
world over where such work is
done. There will probably never be
an end to the work that might be
done; and improvement in such
work is possible in proportion to
the amount of control that can be
exercised over the process of the
experiment.
Food Significant.
For example, the interesting and
significant thing about Dr. Acker
son's work with chicks is that the
composition and the amount of the
food the chicks took from tho time
they were hatched until they were
killed were accurately known. The
Initial feedings were difficult but
they were managed by the use of
a pelleted ration fed thru a glass
tube inserted into the chick's
esophagus. Each chick's food was
weighed out in a bottle and thus
the record of individual consump
tion was k;pt.
To provide figures on the chemi
cal composition of newly hatched
chicks, 127 were analyzed. The av
erage composition for nitrogen,
calcium ' and phosphorus was ob
tained. Thirty chicks were then
fed accurately known amounts for
sixty days and were then analyzed.
With the three known quantities,
the amounts of the three chemicals
contained in chicks at hatching
time, the amounts consumed in the
feed, and the amounts contained in
the birds at the end of sixty days,
the net retention of these chemi
cals could be calculated.

According to Mr. Hicks the gov

substitute for the AAA, levy any
tax for the sole purpose of rebat
ing it to members of a particular
industry, or as a penalty to mem

by the government may be at
