Naturalists and Physicians in Cassel, September 25, 1903.
[2] On the other hand, certain stages in the development of
various malaria parasites resemble each other very closely; but we
distinguish the parasites definitely because they are of different
origin.
[3] Formula for the digesting fluid:
| Pepsin | 1-2 gm. |
| Glycerin | 10 c.c. |
| HCl 22° Baumé | 10 c.c. |
| Sodium fluorid | 3 gm. |
| Distilled water | 1000 c.c. |

stomach to the rectum. See appendix, p. 81.—Translator.
[6] It will be well to retain the name “Scrofula” for those
tubercular processes outside of the lung which go on with
cheesy degeneration. Only in that way can the connection between the
histogenetically so important results of earlier investigations be
maintained.
[7] Rules 1, 2, and 3 have been purposely neglected in
certain dairies in Savár, Teschen, and Mecklenburg, as can be seen by
the reports of Messrs. Strelinger, Rösler, and Ebeling (Beiträge zur
experim. Therapie, No. 8, 1904), without, thus far, injuring the
inoculated animals.
[8] §2 includes the following disinfecting agents:
1. Water, steam, hot water, boiling for one hour.
2. Soap-suds.
3. Soda-lye solution (at least 2 kilos soda in 100 liters water).
4. Freshly slaked lime, powder, and milk of lime, 1:2 aq. and 1:20 aq.
5. Sol. chloride of lime, 1:3 aq. and 1:20 aq.
6. Sol. carbolic acid, 5%.
7. Sol. crude cresol, 5% (Liquor cresoli saponatus of the German pharmacopœia).
8. Coal-tar and wood-tar.
9. Fire.
The most reliable and cheapest agent for rendering harmless Tb. virus in stables is hot 2% soda solution, whenever a surface disinfectant is desired. Disinfection of the stable air is as yet to be classed only as a pious wish.
