Bull No. 16. Weight when inoculated 402 lbs. ; gained 88 
lbs. This bull was inoculated twice, but during the entire 60 
days that he remained at the Station only a few high tempera¬ 
tures were observed—on the 8th day 103.8; 17th day, 103.9; 
2ist afternoon, 106; 34th day, 103.9; 4°th day, 103.6° F. No 
■continuous fever period occurred. This bull ate well and kept 
in excellent condition. Had some fever on arrival in Texas, 
104° F., Jan. 9th. A delayed reaction may have occurred. This 
animal became very ticky and on June 24th had some fever, 104° 
F., but outwardly showed no marked signs of illness, and no de¬ 
pression. Aug. 15th, no illness. Was with cows and heifers a

Bull Np. 10. Weight 480 lbs. ; gained 105 lbs. Showed 
but little rise of temperature from the first inoculation. Was

blood from a native made immune by artificial tick-infestation. 
A marked fever period followed this second inoculation, begin¬ 
ning on the fifth day and continuing six days or longer. This 
fever period corresponds in time to the secondary reaction of 
the usual type, and it is possible that this may be a delayed
