SUMMARY

1. Guinea pigs and rabbits grow at the normal rate on simplified rations which contain dried yeast as the source of all water-soluble vitamins. A water extract of dried liver also contains the essential water-soluble vitamins that are not yet recognized.
2. When vitamin K was added to the simplified diets the females were able to rear litters.
3. When all water-soluble vitamins were supplied as pure compounds now available, the mortality was high and the rate of growth was subnormal.
