Proceedings of the American Veterinary Medical Association (Prnc. Amer.

 forty-third annual convention of the association in New Haven, ("onnecticut. 

 August 21-24, r.)0(J, have been previously noted ( K. S. R., 18, pp. 98-100). A 

 number of pajiers were I'ead by title only and brief mention of them is made 

 herewith. 



The recent Federal meat-inspection legislation was explained by J. 11. 

 Mohler (pp. 142-144) with reference to its effectiveness and enforcement. The 

 iiictliod of controlling rinderpest in the l'hili])i)ines was described by A. S. 

 Shealy ( pp. olo-.HlO). In obtaining serum, Chinese cattle are used chieti.y, and all 

 these animals are rendered immune before their serum is used. It has not been 

 determined how long the serum will retain its vitality, but the results obtained 

 from its use are highly satisfactory. 



A menace to the goat and sheep industry in New England l)y strongylosis was

 for ridding pastures of these parasitic worms are not always etfective. Drain- 

 .•ige of the land proved unsuccessful in a number of instances. Burning over the 

 jiastures in spring or fall is etfective, but causes ;\ loss of forage and in m.-my 

 locations is dangeiMiis. It is suggested that biuMiing might be contined to a
