Septicæmic Pullorum Disease in a flock of adult fowls. L. Hart and T. G. Hungerford. Australian Veterinary Journal, Vol. 12, 1936, p. 17.

An account is given of a disease met with in a flock of 600 adult fowls in which approximately 8 per cent. died and about 25 per cent. showed symptoms. It was manifested as a septicæmia, with some focal infection in heart muscle, liver, spleen and kidney. Cultures from these tissues yielded an organism which was differentiated from Salmonella sanguinarium and shown to be S. pullorum.
