Vitamin E-deficient rats, as well as normal and vitamin E-deficient chicks, failed to discriminate between two diets which were identical in all respects except that in one there was a deficiency of vitamin E and in the other there were adequate levels of vitamin E.

Grateful thanks are due to G. Crook for assistance in the care and management of the experimental animals.
