NOTES OF THE BUFFALO MEETINGS. 
NOTES OF THE BUFFALO MEETINGS. 
The State Society will meet in Syracuse next year. Its 
centrality won the day. 
Principal Smith, of the Ontario College, was an interested 
visitor to the meeting of the Faculties. 
Dr. Wilson Huff’s paper on “ Bacteria in Milk ” was a. 
very practical exposition of a very scientific subject. 
The discussion on the report from Kings County was the 
most animated of the meeting of the State Society. 
How two-year schools can continue as such in the face of 
the sentiment expressed at Buffalo is hard to understand. 
Profs. Law and Williams related many instances before 
the State Society of spontaneous recoveries from glanders. 
Congressman Mahany, of Buffalo, delivered a most schol¬ 
arly extemporaneous discourse before the guests at the banquet. 
IT was shown in papers and discussions that few autopsies 
are now considered complete without a microscopical examina¬ 
tion. 
Dr. Stewart, the Secretary par excellence , went home 
loaded down with money—but the delinquents will be goaded 
just the same. 
Mrs. Dr. Hinckley, of Buffalo, did so much to make the 
lady visitors happy, that their stay will ever be one of the most 
pleasant memories of their lives. 
The Buffalonians set a killing pace in the matter of enter¬ 
tainment that will be hard for other cities to follow. Their 
natural resources was a considerable aid to them. 
Dr. Leonard Pearson, State Veterinarian of Pennsylvania, 
and one of the editors of the Veterinary Magazine , made a rec¬ 
ord for doing much effective work in debate and committee. 
Dr. Wm. H. Pendry, of Brooklyn, advocated before the 
State Society, the establishment of a State Bureau of Animal 
Industry, with the especial object of controlling tuberculosis. 
There can be no question but that sanitary medicine is 
more enticing to state veterinarians and experiment station vet¬ 
erinarians than to practitioners of veterinary surgery. The 
latter is more concerned in diseases with which he daily comes 
in contact. Would not a more equal mixture of ingredients 
make a smoother ointment?
