THE disagreement of those undoubt- edly well acquainted with both American and European f oulbrood regarding the odor from colonies af- fected with either of these diseases has been the source of much surprise, and no little difficulty has been experienced by those attempting to differentiate the two diseases by the odor symptom alone, or relying on this as the deter- mining factor. The odor of American foulbrood is usually described as being like that from poor glue when heated, and is very pronounced; that is, it is more noticeable than the odor from luiro- pean foulbrood, while the latter is de- scribed as a sour smell, and in some cases scarcely noticeable. One having his first experience with foulbrood is often unable to make the description fit the case. There are two explanations for this seeming disagreement. The first is that possibly the organisms causing decay may differ with the locality and under different climatic conditions, so that in some cases the gases given off are more abundant, thus giving more odor. The second is that samples de- scribed may have been examined in the apiary in the one case and in the laboratory in the other; or, in other words, one sample was fresher than the other. Two seasons' work in New Jersey, giving opportunity to examine plenty of both forms of the disease has shown that, in this State at least, the odor from European foulbrood when examined in the apiary is much more pronounced than that from th
