Feeds and Feeding Manual (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from Feeds and Feeding Manual The teaching of the principles of nutrition which underlie the practice of feeding has been left to lecture and text-book. In this manual exercises have been outlined which will guide the student in his study of 50 common feeds. In addition, problems have been suggested covering rations for dairy and beef cattle, horses, sheep, and swine. In these problems the comparative usefulness of the common feeding standards is brought out, and the fact is impressed on the student that in order to formulate a ration intelligently, the nature, composition usefulness and relative cost of a large variety of feeds must be known. A method of computing the relative value of the several feeds is clearly illustrated in the computation of the problems. There have purposely been included in the manual more exercises and problems than can be worked out by most classes in the amount of time available. This has been done in order that each instructor may select the exercises and problems which are especially important in his own section. Additional blank pages are provided at the rear so that the instructor may assign special problems of local interest, if desired, The authors wish to acknowledge the help of Professor W. A. Henry of the University of Wisconsin and of Professor H. H. Wing and Mr. T. A. Baker of Cornell University in the preparation of this manual.

How to Feed Children, a Manual for Mothers


Book Description

Excerpt from How to Feed Children, a Manual for Mothers: Nurses, and Physicians It is also hoped that the book will meet the require ments of practitioners, who rarely have the time to direct in detail the management of children's diet. It is not the intention of the author to advise where a phy sician is needed, but rather to suggest to the mother or nurse when he should be sent for, and how he may be aided in his efforts by the exercise of intelligence and judgment in the selection and preparation of foods indicated 'for various ages and varying conditions of illness and convalescence. Owing to differences of temperament and constitution, each case needs indi vidualization: hence, when there is the least doubt, even in conditions of health, a physician should be consulted without delay. In the hope, therefore, that when a physician is available the counsel given will be explicitly followed, this little book is earnestly com mended to mothers and those in charge of children, as well as to physicians who may wish to be relieved of the tediousness of making Specific the general laws regulating dietetic practice. The author is deeply indebted to T. M. Rotch, M.D., Boston, for the use of his book Pediatrics, and to Samuel S. Adams, M.D., Washington, Leroy M. Yale, M.D., New York, and Edgar Dubs Shimer, ph.d.

Diet for the Sick


Book Description

Excerpt from Diet for the Sick: Arranged and Compiled From Leading Authorities, With Supplementary Notes Little claim for originality is made for this brief manual on feeding the sick. Frankly, it is to a large extent, a compilation from the writings of many different authors. Great care has been exercised in the selection Of the material, however, with the constant aim of presenting only such facts and information as will prove most serviceable to the general practitioner in his every day work. From the standpoint Of practical utility, we believe this little volume will be found quite unique, for up to the present time, contemporary medical literature has known no other brief, condensed manual affording a larger amount of definite, well established data on the all important subject of feeding the sick.
