Abstract

THE ravages of foot-and-mouth disease in Great Britain during the past few years, though now, happily, declining, yet lend great importance to the discovery of methods of prevention and cure less drastic than the slaughter of all affected animals. Although in its second progress report,1 the Foot-andMouth Disease Research Committee is unable to prescribe certain means of prevention and cure, the results already achieved suggest that in the future such may be discovered; thus the experiments described on methods of destroying the virus and on immunity to it in animals point the way to possible means by which these ends may be successfully accomplished.
