by W. Brdinerd.)

Bacteria are minute plants. They
are subject, very largely TO the laws
Of growth OF larger plants. In order
to thrive they require a certain tenn
perature, varying with the species,
as with other plants, also light or
oxygen in a varying degree, and mate
rial upon which to grow. Unlike large
plants. they grow largely upon organ
ic matter. or materials which a v
been built up by the higher plants and
by animals. IL Is this characteristic
which makes them SO dangerous to
animal life. A large percentage Of
the diseases to which man is subject
are caused by the growth of these
minute plants or germs; as, for xam-
Pile, tuberculosis, typhoid fever, scar
let fever. diphtheria, and the intes-
final troubles which cause such a
large mortality non babies, espe-
cially in the large cities.
The close relation between milk AS
a food and these bacteria is due &c
the fact hat these germs thrive and
multiply SO rapidly in milk. A con-
tamination of milk which is very

they may also be successfully used or

rather unsatisfactory against mango

Throughout Louisiana, Mississippi,
