Abstract
RECENT advances in our knowledge of the lowest forms of life have tended to bring into prominence not only their relation to disease but to the ever-increasing importance of the part which they play in our arts and industries. Probably in none of the industrial arts, save those concerned with fermentation, commonly so called, has the progress of this branch of biology shown such remarkable development as in its bearing on the art of agriculture.
