It  is  interesting  to  1I0te  the  at

11Iliking  to interest  the good  farmers 
of  ~[ichigal\ ill  cultures  for  the  in 
occul:lIioll  of

legumes.  Th c.r~ is  linle douht  that 
cultures  protluccd by  these  firms  arc 
very  valuable,  but  the  c\nims  mllde 
nrc  usually somewhat  exaggerated, 
are  npl 
to  be  Illisleading;  ill  fact, 
disappointment  is  su re  10  follow 
if  o ne  accepts  their lilCrature at fn ce

The  (lepartllient  of  bacteriology 
has  had  nUlilerous  occasions  to  save 
the farmers  considerable  sumS  he 
cause  of  their  abilit\' 
to  furnish 
these  l'ultu rcs  at  cost of  production. 
This cost is  found  to be onl, a  ~mall 
:tmount  usually 
per  cent.  of  the

charged  by  such  firms.
