✦ Synopsis

for maintenance 32 units. For each vitamin A unit in the egg, the hen required 6.3 extra units in her ration. Every human being required at least IOOO units, possibly additional units for higher vigor and better health; the IOOO units were available at a low price in comparatively small quantities of collard greens, turnip greens, mustard greens, or spinach, or in somewhat larger amounts of bananas, carrots, yellow corn, or sweet potatoes. The ration apparently must include green pasture plants in order to produce milk and eggs rich in vitamin A. Cottonseed meal, hays, fodders, and sorghum silage were low .in vitamin A content.
