The initiation of a further long range study of this fundamen- tal aspect of physiology based on modern scientific methods of pro- cedure thus clearly seemed imperative for the sound progress of knowledge regarding animal nutrition. In this modernization tVvO radically new procedures were applied. One was the design and construction of new types of apparatus which would allow a greater research output at less expense, and the other was the study of the energy expended by the animal organism not only when subsisting on different nutritive planes, but also during a limited fast when its digestive apparatus was not filled with food. It was at this stage that the initiative, the vision, and the experi- ence of a great scientist came in to give research in animal nurition a rational scientific trend. With his usual prompt decision. Dr. Bene- dict remarked: "As nobody else will do this we will have to tackle ; Thus was begun a cooperative research which stands today as a record in originality and volume output. It represents a material advance in the studv of metabolism of farm Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original New Hampshire Agricultural Experiment Station.
