soon enough to prevent the rain
pouring in. Wind. hail and rain com

Microbes That Defy Death.

Though some microbes are very
tough and can stand great extremes Of
heat and cold, the majority Of them
are easily killed If the right methods
are used. But what puzzled scientists
for many years was that KILLED" mi,
crobes seemed to be able to come alive
again! o.. !
You could kill them rs dead as door;
nails, but in q very short space of
time they would reappear in swarms
and as lively az cr;rkets. ,,
Then discovery was made. 1t was
found that many microbes breed by;
means of seeds or spores, which are
almost indestructible save by fire. ~ =
Experiments made with spores show
that they DO not in the least mind un:
dergoing temperature Of 400 degrees
below freezing-point for many hours.
Nor does 1t hurt them to be boiled |!
Thut is why such disease as an
thrax, the microbes OF which produce
spores. is so extremely difficult to
stamp out-no ordinary means Of dis
Infection IL Of the slightest use.
