MICROBES WAR IN A BOTTLE
Multiply So Fast That the Battle Ex-
plodes the BottIe-Metchinkoff
Demonstration.

Soon after the opening Of the medi-
cal exhibition at the Horticultural
hall, Westminster, large glass bottle
which had been betraying symptoms
of uneasiness exploded and scattered
Its contents, creamy foam, over tho
rest Of the STALL
Originally the bottle contained milk
Just milk and a few million typhoid
bacilli, which lived and grew happily
together in this culture-medium. Then,
for demonstration purposes, horde
of 100000 hungry monsters (known
as the bacilli of Massol) were intro
duced into the cultured civilization of
the unhappy typhoid tribes, and re-
morseless war was raging in mo-
ment.
A storm in a teacup was nothing to
the battle in the bottle. The milk
grew turgid with the bodies of the
slain, and still the Massol militia muir
dered and devoured their victims.
When Massol bandit had filled himself
to bursting point-he burst, and each
of his 100000 or 100000 fragments
became hungry young Massol bacil.
lus which fought and ate in turn.
Finally the milk foamed up with the
rapidly multiplying generation of Mas.
solites and the bottle exploded.
The demonstration arose out of
Prof. Metchnikoff's claim that the
bacillus of Tactic acid (the Massol
baciluus) destroys the bacilli which
cause internal putrefaction of food.
The Massol bacillus, he holds, by rem.
dering the internal organs antiseptic,
lengthens mans life to an extraor-
binary extent, and he quotes the ex.
ceptional number of centenarians in
Bulgaria, where the Inhabitants live
largely on soured milk, which con.
tains this bacillus.
Massol bacilli are now presented
in acnovel form-that of chocolate
creams, each containing 100000
bacilll-and it was one of these choco-
late creams which caused such havoc
among the innocent typhoid microbes

TOBACCO CURING BY HEAT.
New Type Of Closed Barn Used by a
Connecticut Grower.

New Type Of Closed Barn Used by a
Connecticut Grower.
Tobacco growing is counted among
the hazardous lines OF agriculture in
that a crop may be totally destroyed
within a very short time by hail or by
pole sweat in the curing shed. DAN
ger OF hail damage is eliminated in
the growing OF shade tobacco. but the
menace Of pole sweat is as great as
ever. Last season. however, the first
scientific experiment on large scale
to guard against pole sweat in cigar
leaf tobacco was made on the farm of
William linney at Sufheld. Conn. The
result may ultimately place the farm
er in absolute control of the curing
process. shortening the time and de-
termining the shade the tobacco shall
be when it has been cured.
The experiment was simply the util-
zation Of artificial heat during the
curing process. Some kinds OF heavy
leaf tobacco are cured in tight barns
and with fire, and it has long been a
common practice to build charcoal fires
in the barns when tobacco was in
grave danger OF being ruined by pole
sweat But until the experiment on
the Pinney farm no effort had been
made to control the curing and color
ing of cigar leaf.
special type of barn is required
for this work. 4 ventilator along the
entire ridge which may be readily
opened or closed tight is an important
feature. Instead of the crude charcoal
burners placed on the ground. creating
fire menace. specially constructed
furnaces. five in number. were placed
i'll the ground. The feed doors are on
the outside Of the building. so that
snioke and vapors from the fire cannot
enter the barn and affect the favor ul
the tobacco. The smoke pipe OF each
furnace ruls across the entire width
of the building and returns on Il para l.
lei ten feet away and at a slight pitch.
The vents are in the side of the barn.
The smoke pipe forms the only neat
radiating service.
Immediately after the crop was put
into the barn the fires were started
ond the barn closed tightly. The tenn
perature was run up to 80 degrees and
the fires permitted to die down after
the first day. The curing by this meth.
cd was FASTENED at least five days.
Very excellent natural atmospheric
conditions for curing prompted Mr..
Pinney to abandon further application
OF artificial heat. 1t was noted during
the first two days when the barn was
closed that the tobacco turned a rich
yellow. The final result was a large
percentage of excellent wrappers.
The furnaces were installed under
the supervision OF a representative OF
