"Until comparatively recent times, it has bam customary to judge tha feeding value ef the various fodders, Including grass, from a consideration of their content of protein, libra, fat, and carbohydrate*. Experience ilea shown, however, that in certain Rases (heae conventional catimationa of nutritive value have not given an accurate indication of the real value of certain fodders and graiß pastures for fattening stock, for milk production or for the breeding of stock. Middleton and other workers in England have pointed out that the beef-producing capacity of tha best pastures may bv aa much as 40 times graster than tha pooreat. A determination of their nutritive values by conventional methods baa given no indication of the great difference between the fattening qualities of the pastures concerned. More recently workers at the Rowett Inetitutc, Aberdeen. Scotland, and also at other places, have shown that the mineral ■'intent of rationa fad to stock is of great Important* in any consideration of their value for fattening stock or for milk prodyMion. Tliey have also shown that thera >s a graft diilerenoe in the mineral content of pasture* which are considered good or poor respectively by stockmen. They have demonstrated that- a number of poor pasture* ia Scotland, ia tha Falkland Islands, and in other place*, where high mortality or malnutrition of stock occur, have an extremely low content of certain mineral salts. It b. t been demonstrated that mineral salts containing liiie and phosphate, as well as compounds of iodine, sulphur, chlorine, and fron. play an important part in tha maintenance of health of stock and in the utilisation ot fodders by the animal.
