This effect appears long before the cow exhibits any signs of disease—at least any that would be likely to attract the notice of the ordinary observer. In more advanced stages, the globules become broken down and destroyed, and assume a variety of new appearances. Figure 28 represents a sample of milk tainted by drinking impure water. It contained the seeds of algae and other organic germs, which made the cows fever- ish and the milk globules very adhesive. The seeds of the algae passed through the body of the cow i^^to the milk, and after a day or two they grew, and the stems of the plants, well developed as in the illustration, were seen in the milk. A large germ of another kind lays bare on the adhering globules, and at the left of the figure may be seen some smaller ones of still another variety, and also a few blood cells, having a dark centre. This illustra- tion was obtained from drawings made by Professor Law, of Cornell University, who examined the tainted milk. Figure 29 exhibits an aggravated case of diseased milk.
