It no doubt attacks and greatly curtails the life and usefulness of the mature bes but it is in the case of the bee in the larval state that its destructive effects are most evident. Like many of the diseases to which the human family is subject it is induced fcy bactjria to which in this particular case theii!";me bacil- lus alvei is given, and such is its naVignity that when once present, unless propf .neas- ures are taken to keep it in checl: u the course of three or four yuars ^ v^?s : aries. are swept away. I am inclined to thmkthat it is often present where not suspected and that often the destruction ascribed to the severity of the winter should be assigned to it. How to detect the presence of the disease and how to efifect its cure are the practical points to which my attention has been chiefly directed. My experience with it i"^, not confined to the past season but runs back over the past seven years during which I have cured more than one hundred cases largely during the first two years of the period, but I became so interested in the study of the disease and so certain that I could control it that I was not anxious to be entirely rid of it preferring rather at some risk to get as thorough and practical acquaintance as possible with its peculiarities and with the best metho
