Abstract
ALTHOUGH the majority of diseases are produced directly or indirectly by the invasion of microbes, it has come to be generally recognised that the soil in which they grow plays a cardinal part in determining the ultimate effect or fate of the microbe. The finding of a pathogenic microbe, and even the accessory disposing factors of a disease, are, however, after all only the beginnings of the greater problem which is the end and aim of all medical science, viz. the cure of the disease.
