In a previous communication (Wordley, 1921) I fully described a method, introduced by Dudgeon, for isolating organisms from faeces and sputum. The material is dried to a powder and this dried powder spread over convenient culture media. From my observations this method, for faeces, was found to be superior to those generally in use for isolating the dysentery and enterica group of organisms.
