though capable of developmg anaerobically and at room temperature ; 

 prefer the depths rather than the surfaces of media ; grow feebly, if at 

 all, on potato ; fail to liquefy gelatine ; produce acid, but no gas in 

 glucose media, neither acid nor gas in lactose media ; and develop 

 varying amounts of indol and phenol in peptone solution. The 

 organisms have been named ]!aciUtis borigipticus. The lesions of the 

 disease are reproduced in cattle and other animals by inoculation of 

 pure cultures of the organism. 



It should be insisted upon that the identification of the disease in a 

 locality in which it has not been previously described, or by veteri- 

 narians not having had previous experience therewith, shall take into 

 consideration — (a) t]ie essential clinical symptoms; (b) the iiathohitjicul 

 lesions as obseiTcd before the onset of decomposition ; and (c) the morpho- 

 logical and biologiccd identification of the specific bacilli. 



The following is a tabulated list of the principal epidemics so
