IN this paper and a subsequent one I propose to describe a method for the investigation of the source of carbon for uric acid synthesis in pigeons. As the method comprises (1) the establishment of the normal characteristics of the relation between uric acid excretion and nitrogen intake (or food intake on a uniform diet) of birds allowed to feed freely and (2) the study of the effects of the administration of various compounds containing carbon on the characteristics of this relation, the investigation is best described under these two headings. This paper is therefore concerned with the establishment of the normal relation.
