Ellis . — The Life-history of Bacilhis hirtus. 
media were taken from Meyer’s list, mentioned in Gottheil’s work (6). The 
media were inoculated from spore-material and incubated at 3 1 °-yT C. 
For the sake of uniformity I have numbered these liquid media in the 
same manner as Gottheil (6). No. II is not easily available, and I have 
therefore discarded it.
