Excerpt from Report of a Committee Appointed by the Academy of Medicine, Upon the Comparative Value of Milk: Formed From the Slop of Distilleries and Other Food, With Chemical and Microscopical AnalysesNo. 5 is from cows kept in, or near the city, constantly confined in stables, and fed entirely, or nearly so, on distillery slop. These cows are kept in low sheds, sometimes at a distance from, but generally near a distillery. A description as summary as possible of the cow-sheds attached to John son's distillery, corner of Sixteenth Street and Tenth Avenue, will, perhaps, give as good an idea of this method as can be stated in any manner. This collection of pens is selected for description, on account of its size and neatness, being far superior to any of the others in both these particulars.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
