INSTRUCTIONS TO PERSONS ATTENDING THE MEETING. 
Arrangements have been made for us for rates over the Trunk Line Association which 
has original jurisdiction and we have every reason to believe the adjoining lines will grant 
the same rates. It has been done heretofore. 
1. The reduction is to persons going to the meeting over the Joint Traffic Association 
and probably over all lines between the Missouri river to the Atlantic. 
2. The reduction is fare and one-third on Committee’s certificate, conditional on there 
being an attendance at the meeting of not less than 100 persons who have traveled thereto 
on some legitimate form of railroad transportation. 
3. The reduction applies to persons starting from Trunk Line territory by any of the 
roads named below, who have paid 75 cents or upwards for their going journey. Each 
person availing of it will pay full first-class fare going to the meeting and get a certificate 
filled in on one side by the agent of whom the ticket is purchased. Agents at all impor¬ 
tant stations and coupon ticket offices are supplied with certificates. 
4. Certificates are not kept at all stations. If, however, the ticket agent at a local 
station is not supplied with certificates and through tickets to place of meeting, he can in¬ 
form the delegate of the nearest important station where they can be obtained. In such 
a case the delegate should purchase a local ticket to such station and there take up his 
certificate and through ticket to place of meeting. 
5. Going tickets, in connection with which certificates are issued for return, may be 
sold only within three days (Sunday excepted) prior to, and during the continuance of the 
meeting ; except that, when meetings are held at distant points to which the authorized 
limit is greater than three days, tickets may be sold before the meeting in accordance with 
the limits shown in regular tariffs. 
6. Deposit the certificates with the secretary or other proper officer of the organization 
at the meeting, for necessary indorsement and vise of special agent. 
7. Certificates are not transferable, and return tickets secured upon certificates are not 
transferable. 
8. On presentation of the certificate, duly filled in on both sides, within three days 
(Sunday excepted) after the adjournment of the meeting, the ticket agent at the place of 
meeting will return the holder to starting point, by the route over which the journey was 
made, at one-third the highest limited fare by such route. The return ticket will in all 
cases be closely limited to continuous passage to destination. 
9. No refund of fare will be made on account of any person failing to obtain a certifi¬ 
cate. 
ASSOCIATION OF VETERINARY FACULTIES OF NORTH AMERICA. 
The third annual meeting of the Association of Veterinary 
Faculties will be held at Buffalo, New York, September 4th, 
1896. The headquarters of the Association will be the Genesee 
House, where a special parlor is provided for the meeting. 
The programme consists of the reports of several committees, 
notably those of the committee on a uniform veterinary degree, 
and the committee to devise legislation in regard to a uniform 
examination by State Boards of Veterinary Examiners. The 
action upon these reports by the association will be of great 
interest and importance. The subjects laid over from the last
