dc.description.abstract	Section 2 describes firstly experiments on the drenching of cattle with various materials e.g. pupae of a blow-fly reared on carcasses of cattle that died of naturally contracted lamsiekte, crushed putrid bones of bovine carcasses, Pycnosoma pupae, Pycnosoma larvae etc. Secondly the feeding of cattle with putrid bones are observed. Thirdly experiments were done with cattle in a paddock where carcasses and bones had been deposited. Experimental work on the production of lamsiekte by means of mixed cultures prepared from toxic material are described as well as cases of naturally contracted lamsiekte.	en
