42 ^OllTll CAROLIXA BOARD OF HEALTH. In Berlin records have been kept of the method of feeding infants^ and the number of deaths from tuberculosis is equally divided^ as shown by statistics cited by Fraenkel, between those who were nursed by the mothers and those who were fed on cow's milk. There is much more evidence of like character which tends to show that the tuberculosis of cattle is not the great source of danger that has been asserted; but an actual experiment on man has been made^ although at the time not with the view of determining this question. Baumgarten has given us the details of it. Based upon Rokitansky's theory of the antagonism between tuberculosis and cancer, a number of patients suffering from inoperable malignant disease were inoculated with bovine tubercle bacilli in the hope that their malignant disease might thereby be favorably influenced. All eventually died of their malignant disease^ and Baumgarten performed the autopsies. He found no evidence of tuberculosis, and even critical microscopic examinations failed to reveal tubercle or tubercle bacilli. As Dr. Butler has stated, it has been found that primary intestinal tuberculosis is not quite as rare as was supposed at the time Professor Koch made his announcement in London, but while the thoracic glands may become affected as a result of ingestion of tuberculous material, this, according to all results and investiijations, is rare. Tt is generally con- c; / o «/ ceded that by whatever route the bacillus enters, be this by ingestion or by inhalation, the first localization occurs in the nearest regional lymph gland. However, since 1901, the subject has been most carefully and painstakingly studied at the Imperial Health Bureau in Berlin and elsewhere, and it has been proven conclusively that in the majority of cases of primary intestinal tuberculosis the tubercle bacilli isolated from the intestine or mesenteric glands were of the human type. Up to the present time the cases in which bovine infections have been proven to have occurred in man are about
