title: THE INFLUENCE OF THE QUANTITY OF NUTRITION UPON THE GROWTH OF THE SUCKLING MOUSE.
abstract: Under usual conditions, the growth of the suckling mouse is limited by the quantity of mother's milk available. As this limitation is removed the growth curve approaches a parabola, which is abruptly interrupted at the end of the second week, when the natural process of weaning begins.
