Abstract
Bovine mastitis may be compared to the common cold in man, i.e., it is a disease characterized by its clinical signs but caused by numerous different pathogens. In mastitis probably these pathogens are bacteria or possibly pleuropneumonia-like organisms. Thus, we have a variety of infections with similar clinical signs and immunity to one does not confer protection against any of the others. TaMe 1 shows the relative incidence of the most common mastitis pathogens (10). In New York for the year 1967 the streptococci and staphylococci make up the most significant groups and we will limit this discussion to these two groups.
