(Fig. 72, Fig. 13, p. 47, and Fig. 17, p. 207). Irregular sporulatiou sometimes takes place, and occasionally there is no spore-formation, as in varieties of non-spore bearing anthrax. Fig. Spores heavily stained (in specimen red). Bodies of disintegrating bacilli faintly stained (in specimen blue). X 1000 diameters. The anthrax bacillus stains readily with all the aniline colors, and also by Gram's method, when not left too long in the decolorizing iodine solution. In sections good results may be obtained by the employment of Gram's solution in combination with carmine, but when.
