After operative elimination of the distal two‐thirds of the small bowel young pigs developed, in the course of some months, a condition similar to that previously induced by total gastrectomy. In these pigs too, a disappearance of the anti‐anaemia principle was demonstrated in extracts from the liver. Only this particular change will be discussed in the present paper. It is presumed to be due to the removal of a selective absorption area.
