The Tropical Agriculturist. The Agricultural Journal of Ceylon July 1934

1934

The subject of the bearing of the milk supply upon the health of the nation is one engaging the attention of many at the present moment in different countries. [...] The most9 important difference between the two varieties of this bacillus is that the Human type is practically incapable of causing disease in cattle on the other hand the Bovine type while of compartively little importance as a cause of disease in adult human beings is a common cause of Tuberculosis affecting certain parts of the body in children in many parts of the world. [...] They are most commonly seen near the throat at the angle of the jaw in front of the shoulder in front of the breast bone at the entrance to the chest and in the flank. [...] in the tick-fever investigation it was demonstrated that the actual cause of the disease is a micro-organism found in the blood of infected cattle and that the cattle tick is the only means whereby the disease can be transmitted. [...] The bulk of the higher modern agricultural research work in the world has developed into three main types of scientific effort — the work of the geneticist or breeder the work of the physiologist and the work of the nutritionist or feeder.
