From the foregoing experiments, it may be assumed:
(1) That given favourable conditions, such as a direct current of air through a building, organisms derived from animals, their fodder or environment, may be disseminated over distances up to 150 feet from the building.
(2) That B. welchii is frequently present in the dust and dirt of buildings in which horses and small laboratory animals (guinea-pigs and rabbits) are housed, and
(3) That under suitable conditions, spore-bearing anaerobes such as B.welchii, may be carried with infected dust from such buildings, for a distance of at least 90 feet, and probably considerably further.
