In previous reports (Topley and Ayrton, 1924 a, b and c) we have recorded the results obtained by feeding mice on cultures of B. aertrycke, and studying the subsequent excretion of that organism in the faeces. The present report deals with the application of the same technique to the study of an experimental epidemic of mouse-typhoid.
