NEW HAMPSHIRE VETERINARY MEDICAE ASSOCIATION. 
The thirteenth meeting of the New Hampshire Veterinary 
Medical Association was held at the Eagle Hotel, Concord, on 
Tuesday, Dec. 8th, at 11.30 A. M., with Dr. Lilico in the chair. 
Drs. Lilico, Tuttle, Hart, Abbott, Russell, Macguire, and Pope 
responded to roll-call. 
Dr. Pope read a report on the proceedings at the United 
States Veterinary Medical Association convention at Buffalo in 
September. 
Dr. Lilico, chairman of the Legislative Committee, presented 
a proposed bill from the committee to go before the coming 
legislature. The bill was discussed by sections and a few 
changes suggested. Dr. Lilico was then authorized to employ 
counsel and have the bill put into proper shape and the penalties 
attached. After its completion the Secretary was instructed to 
call a meeting to reconsider the changes made. 
Dr. R. J. Macguire then read a most interesting paper on 
“ Abortion,” which was followed by discussion. Meeting ad¬ 
journed until March. L. Pope, Jr., M.D.V, Secretary. 
MISSOURI VAUEEY VETERINARY ASSOCIATION. 
The meeting of this association held in Kansas City, Dec. 9th, 
was well attended and the subjects presented were discussed with 
much enthusiasm. Only two papers were read, the remaining 
time being occupied in discussion of cases. The next meeting 
of this association will be held in Kansas City the second 
Wednesday in February. 
Hydrozone in Gastric and Intestinau Disorders.— 
The use of hydrozone in these affections is highly recommended 
by Dr. John Aulde, of Philadelphia, in an article which he pub¬ 
lished some time ago in the New York Medical Journal. 
Knowing the antiseptic properties that this compound possesses 
and in the presence of the results obtained by the doctor in gas¬ 
tric and intestinal disorders, the question can certainly not be 
improper as to whether similar results could not be reached in 
veterinary practice—for any of our domestic animals suffering 
with gastritis in any of its forms, in diarrhoeic troubles such as 
those that accompany some of our microbic diseases. Hydro¬ 
zone is certainly worth a trial at the hands of veterinarians.
