    x Introduction. nition of the germs is the only mode of definitely establishing the nature of a lesion. Every one can understand how desirable it is that the practitioner, meat inspector or sanitary veterina- rian, whose decisions very frequently run counter to some particular interest, should pronounce himself only after having made use of this last resource which will protect him from scientific mistakes a.nd contradictions, always much to be regretted. A like exactitude is to be desired in private prac- tice, where it will form a basis for sound therapeutics. We will briefly trace the history of those microbes which may be of interest to the practitioner, and de- scribe the technique of those investigations which he may daily be called upon to make. Our study will embrace three divisions. In the first we will briefly consider the subject of microbes in general; in the second we will study pathogenic germs collectively; and in the third notice those particular microbes which occasion disease in animals and even in man- kind.
