It is evident from the data in table 1 that the weight of theligamentous skeleton is constantly higher in the test rats than inthe controls of corresponding weight. In the test rats at tenweeks of age there is an apparent increase in the weight of theligamentous skeleton from an average of grams (sexes WEIGHTS OF UNDERFED YOUNG ALBINO RATS 323 combined) for the younger controls to grams for theunderfed individuals. The increase amounts to near y 24 percent (uncorrected for slight difference in body weight). Similarly, the data for the moist cartilaginous skeleton (table 1)show a marked increase in the underfed rats. For the test ani-.
