XI, B. 5 Boynton: Rinderpest in Swin,e 245 



This animal gradually recovered, and was later used in makingr 

 hyperimmune rinderpest serum. 



August 19, bull 3840 received subcutaneously 1,000 cubic centi- 

 meters of virulent rinderpest blood from bull 3928. This in- 

 jection caused a slight rise in temperature on the following day, 

 but the animal suffered no other disturbance. 



September 20, bull 3840 received subcutaneously 1,000 cubic 

 centimeters of virulent rinderpest blood from bull 3935. This 

 injection caused practically no reaction.

 as its temperature and physical appearance were normal. The 

 temperature and diarrhoea were undoubtedly due to dietary con- 

 ditions.
