REVIEW. 
119 
Mr. Moir proposed “The health of the Chairman/’ on 
whom he pronounced a high eulogium, as a warm friend 
and a distinguished ornament of the West of Scotland 
Veterinary Medical Association. 
The Chairman , in replying, said, “ I do not regret what 
little I have been able to do for the Society. In looking 
around me, and seeing such a full and respectable meeting, 
I feel that I am amply paid for anything I have done. I am 
proud to see it progressing so rapidly, and I beg to thank 
you for the kind manner in which you have proposed and 
responded to my health.” 
Mr. IF. Anderson proposed as a toast, “Success to the 
veterinary students.” 
Mr. A. Pottie, veterinary student, returned thanks. 
Several other healths and toasts were proposed and res¬ 
ponded to, and the remainder of the evening was spent in 
much harmony.

We consider it altogether uncalled for to enter upon an 
elaborate review of the above work. It has been too long be¬ 
fore the public to need it. It was the first of a series 
published under the superintendence of the Society for the 
Diffusion of Useful Knowledge, designated “ The Farmer’s 
Series.” To the late Mr. Youatt was intrusted the writing 
of the first edition, and well did he execute his task. So 
well indeed that a second was soon called for, which his fertile 
pen enriched with such a considerable increase of matter as 
almost to make the work a new one.
