MICROSCOPIC VIEWS OF SLEEPS BLOOD.

MICROSCOPIC VIEWS OF SLEEPS BLOOD,
But now come tidings of the value of
protective incubation, as tested recently
in New South Wales. According to a
report of said tests and various investi-
cations in Mark Lane Express, the evil
dence is conclusive that anthrax is due
to specific germ poison, and that it is
propagated by animals grazing over in
fected pastures. In a word, it is bacillus
anthracis that is the cause of the disease,
and not the disease that gives rise to the
germs in the blood.
At Fig. in the annexed cut is shown
microscopic view of the blood of a
sheep in health; at Fig. its appearance
when affected with anthrax, showing
also the rod shaped bacillus in large
numbers. Now the anthrax bacilli live
in the oxygen in the blood and so do the
blood cells. The death of the animal
affected, therefore, is due to the bacilli
warning with the blood corpuscles for
the possession of the oxygen and gaining
it. The supply of oxygen is limited,
being mainly kept up by the circulating
blood, and when disease arrests this pro-
cess the animal dies by asphyxia as GER
tainly as if it had been strangled by any
other means.

Sex in Ep,ps.

A good many theories have been in
dulged in on the subject, and what were
thought reliable signs, based generally on
the shape of the eggs, believed by good
many people, but those who have given
the subject care and study and subjected
what were supposed to be male and fe-
male eggs to the test of Matching, have
quite generally arrived at the conclusion
that there is no other way of determin-
ing the question.
