Mr. Hopkins secured, about a week ago, some bacteria from a child in town having membranous croup. Since then he has been at work making cultures and studying the bacteria. He had cultures one and two days old which were shown to members present. He also had mounted specimens under the microscopes which were examined after the club adjourned. Mr. Hopkins gave a brief history of the diseases, diptheria, also a description of its bacteria and their culture and a description of the making of the media blood serum. He said that history records several epidemics of diptheria as far back as the second century. Klebs first stained the bacillus in 1883 and Loeffler cultivated and described them in 1884. The latter examined twenty-five cases and most of them had the bacillus. The bacillus may be found twenty-five days after the disease has started though the fever stops on the fifth. The Klebs-Loefler bacillus is found only in diphtheria though healthy children often have some resembling those of diphtheria. Cases of diphtheria differ as to their intensity from the mildest forms which resemble ordinary catarrhale sore throat to those of most severe, or even fatal character. He said that to secure blood serum, collect the blood in a sterilized jar, and let it stand in a place of certain temperature and the clot separates from the serum. (The bacillus were described in detail.) Prof. Barber gave a talk on "Swine Plague and Other Swine Diseases." The professor recently visited a herd of diseased swine southwest of the city and was thus able to speak from observation. He had parts of the diseased lung of a swine showing the effect of the bacteria. The professor said in part, that the swine plague and hog cholera have somewhat similar symptoms, and both are caused by bacteria. The bacteria of the cholera are usually virulent, active, and cause more rapid death, while the bacteria of the plague may cause a lingering death. The two kinds of bacteria are nearly always found together. Contagion in the case of the plague is generally from individual to individual as the bacteria live but a short time on straw as about the fence. The professor explained the method of testing the effect of bacteria; namely, by inoculating cats, dogs and other animals. The severity of the disease depends on the virulence of the bacteria. A strong healthy animal will not take the disease readily. Among other methods of prevention one is oculation. The swine are inoculated with attenuated, slightly active, bacteria which make the animal immune from that disease.
