Mohler of the Bureau of Animal Industry, writes as follows with reference to mycotic stomatitis: Several attempts have been made by the writer to determine the exact cause and also- to transmit the disease to other animals by direct inoculation, but with negative results. Suspicion, however, has been directed by various observers to the Uromyces and the red and black rusts that occur in clovers. These fungi cause very severe irritation of the lining membrane of the mouth, producing sometimes a catarrhal, at other times an aphthous, and occasionally an ulcerous stomatitis.
