Synopsis

Excerpt from The Sanitarian, Vol. 25: A Monthly Magazine Devoted to the Preservation of Health, Mental and Physical Culture; July to December, 1890

Pathogenic germs evidently exist in the soil. The bacilli of tetanus, typhus, and cholera have been observed, and it is probable that the bacillus of tuberculosis, the pneumo-coccus, will be found.

The superficial strata of the earth are extremely rich in pathogenic germs at a certain depth there is a limit beyond which the number of germs rapidly diminishes until they cease altogether.
