The latter are long and narrow; the peripheral end of each bears a small filament, the gustatory hair, which projects at the gustatory pore; the central eml is produced to form a fine process which is often branched. The taste buds are innervated by fibers of the glosso-pharyngeal nerve and the lingual branch of the trigeminus. Upper eyelid THE SENSE ORGANS AND COMMON INTEGUMENT OF THE OX THE EYE The eyelids are thick, prominent, and less pliable than those of the horse. The lower liil bears a considerable number of cilia, which are, however, finer than those of the upper lid. The tarsal glantls are more deeply embedded ^g».: and therefore not so evident. The conjunctiva of the lower lid presents folds or ridges, and one or two promi- nences which contain numerous leuko- cytes; the conjunctival epithelium is transitional in type. The superficial part of the cartilage of the third eye- lid is leaf or shovel-shaped antl thicker than in the horse; the edge bears a narrower process, on which there is a transverse bar, giving the arrange- ment some resemblance to an anchor. The gland of the thinl eyelid is very large—an inch or more in length— and maj' be divided into two parts. The deep part is pink and consists of loose lobules, but the much larger superficial part is more compact. There are two large and several smaller excretory ducts. The subconjunctival tissue of the third eyelid contains lymph nodules, which are specially Conjunctiva. Lower eyelid (After Ellenberger-Bai Kunsller.) bulbi Sclera Third eyelid Cornea numerous on the bulbar side The lacrimal gland is thick and distinctly lobulated. It is more or less clearly dividetl into a thick upper an
