ID a ^ a d cS H ANTHRAX a second, from this a third, and so on up to onehundred generations, and found that the onehundredth culture would kill as certainly as aninjection of the blood itself. Among other animals hens had been inocu-lated with anthrax germs, but they always sur-vived. Pasteur became interested in this curi-ous exception and finally found the reason fortheir exemption. The normal temperature ofthe hen is several degrees above that of sheepand cattle. This higher temperature he be-lieved prevented the growth of the anthraxbaciUi. To test this important point in the lifehistory of the bacilli, he inoculated hens andthen lowered their temperature by cold so reduced the temperature of the hens thatthe anthrax bacilli could multiply and the hensdied the next da
