1. The effect of replacing one-third of the concentrate of a ration for growing chicks with a mixture of starch and urea that contained an amount of nitrogen equal to that contained in the concentrate withdrawn from the ration was studied with two lots of chicks. 2. All chicks of both lots consumed equal amounts of nitrogen during the experiment. 3. Conclusions were based on increases in body weight and content of nitrogen, calcium and phosphorus at slaughter.

The Utilization Of Food Elements By Growing Chicks. Vi. The Influence Of The Protein Level Of The Ration On The Growth Of Chicks, C. W. Ackerson, M. J. Blish, F. E. Mussehl
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
1. Two rations containing 16 and 22 per cent of protein respectively were fed to newly hatched chicks in two series of feeding trials. In one series the lower protein level was secured by diluting the higher with 30 parts of starch so that the amount but not the quality of the protein was changed. In the other series the amount and quality of the protein both varied since the two rations were mixed by using different proportions of the base and concentrate to yield the 16 and 22 per cent levels in the finished rations. 2. Comparisons were made …
The Utilization Of Food Elements By Growing Chicks. V. A Comparison Of Cottonseed Meal And Linseed Oil Meal As Portions Of The Protein Concentrate, C. W. Ackerson, M. J. Blish, F. E. Mussehl
The Utilization Of Food Elements By Growing Chicks. V. A Comparison Of Cottonseed Meal And Linseed Oil Meal As Portions Of The Protein Concentrate, C. W. Ackerson, M. J. Blish, F. E. Mussehl
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
1. Two lots of newly hatched chicks were fed rations differing only in five per cent of their make-up. In the ration of one lot five parts of linseed oil meal were added to 95 parts of the base, and in the other ration a mixture of 4.5 parts of cottonseed meal and 0.5 part of starch was added, to keep the protein level the same. The remaining portions of the two concentrates were made up of five parts each of meat scraps and fish meal. 2. The amounts of feed consumed by all chicks of both lots were kept …
