This intermittent character of the expul-sion of tubercle bacilli in the feces is precisely what should be ex-pected, when we bear in mind that the bacilli have their origin inthe lung; that tuberculosis in the lungs of cattle, because of theabundant interlobular connective tissue, is not accompanied by freecavity formation, and that cattle do not cough as freely or as vio-l

Third. Guinea pigs inoculated with small masses of fresh fecesfrom tuberculous cows that were passing bacilli like tubercle germsper rectum became affected with typical, generalized, fatal tuber-culosis. Fourth. Cultures made from the bodies of guinea pigs that suc-cumbed to tuberculosis induced by the inoculation of fresh fecesfrom tuberculous cows were found to be pure cultures of tubercle.
