This paper describes a research project which took place from January to May 1964. Fifty pine mice were trapped in Roane County, TN. None of the sites were near a radioactive area. The mice were fed mixed seed and oatmeal mixed with peanut butter. They also had access to fresh greens and water. The mice were necropsied soon after capture. Histological examination of the stomach linings of these mice revealed papillomas and other lesions. The cause of the papillary lesions was not determined. 6 figures, 1 table.
