Association. The location of the meeting-place, with its many 
attractions for visitors, including Niagara Falls, will permit of 
the widest range of judgment on the part of the local committee. 
The Review will keep its readers posted on the progress of the 
preparations, and it urges upon all who are to read papers at 
this meeting the importance of early notifying the Secretary,,

Our esteemed contemporary, the Journal of Comparative 
Medicine and Veterinary Archives , gave its readers a treat for 
April by presenting them with an extra large number, it con¬ 
sisting of about a hundred pages of reading matter, and quite a 
fair showing of new advertisements, the majority of them being 
for this special issue only. The enterprise of the management 
is worthy of a generous response from the veterinary public, for 
whose interest and profit all veterinary journals in this country 
are published, as it will be many years hence before such an un¬ 
dertaking can be made to be a profitable enterprise. The Re¬ 
view for the same month, without making any claim to be 
printing a souvenir edition, was forced to publish 96 pages of 
reading matter in order to do justice to the great amount of im¬ 
portant and valuable material that is furnished by its collabora¬ 
tors and correspondents. The members of the profession who 
are readers should, therefore, do what they can to induce all of 
their brethren to become subscribers, so that this great educa¬ 
tional and protective work which the journals show such a dispo¬ 
sition to foster and extend shall be carried on by their support 
and encouragement. Whatever helps the journals helps the 
reader.
