The liver is af- fected in nearly every case of fowl tubercu- losis. However, as has been pointed out many times in these pages, a spotted condition of the liver is no sure sign of tuberculosis. Most of tfie other liver dis- eases of fowls cause a simple blotching of the tissue in which the center of each spot is usually depressed or at least only slightly raised, ( Cf. Fig. i, p. 54). In tuberculosis the liver is covered. Fig-. 3. Li\'cr of fowl affected with (.»\ft(.-r Ward). with numerous raised nodules varying greatly in number and size as shown in fig. 3. A section (.if the liver shows these nodules or tubercles distributed throughout the tissue. Still UKjre conclusive evidence is found if the spleen is covered \vith these same kind of nodules. The spleen in health is a small i-ounded purplish organ about \^2 inch in diameter. It lies just aljove the liver in the region of the gall blad- der. In cases of tuberculosis it is very frequently gi'eatly enlarged.
