It is a notable fact that in Ostertag's experiments, while he believed he had trans- mitted the disease to cows and heifers by means of pure cultures, he failed to transmit it to sheep, goats, and swine, although they regularly suffer from it. It is not clear, however, just what he accomplished. Doubt is thrown upon
