%X The mean apparent absorption of sulphur when sodium sulphate was continuously infused into the rumen or the duodenum of four sheep in amounts of 1· 5, 3·0, and 6·0 g/day was 93 ·1, 95·3, 95·9% and 93 ·1, 92,8, 81· 5% respectively. The net absorptive capacity of the entire intestine under these conditions was calculated to be up to 5 g of sulphate sulphur daily.
