Abstract

IT is a remarkable fact that the system of organs in the animal body to which they are themselves indebted for their existence is very largely neglected by physiologists; that a number of secretory, vascular and nervous phenomena intimately concerned with fertility, with the power of conception and the ability to bear young are neither understood nor investigated; and that a wide field of research as to the influences of various kinds of food supplied to the mother both on her capacity for breeding and on the growth, constitution, and variation of the embryo is as yet untouched. As a contribution to the subject of “breeding,” therefore, this paper is specially welcome, and the author is to be congratulated both upon the careful work he has done and the treatment he has accorded the subject.
