although they were exposed to glanderous inhalations several 
hours a day for more than a week. Third , the water obtained 
by condensing the vapor expired from the lungs of glanderous 
solipeds is powerless for the transmission of the disease. The 
conclusion is that the expired air is not virulent.— Ibid.

QUARTERLY MEETING OF THE KANSAS STATE VETERINARY 
MEDICAL ASSOCIATION. 
The regular quarterly meeting of the Kansas State Veterinary Medical Asso¬ 
ciation was held in the Windsor Hotel parlor. There was a fairly good attendance. 
The afternoon session was principally devoted to a discussion of needed leg¬ 
islation to protect the stock owners of Kansas against the practice of veterinary 
charlatans. 
It was decided to draft a bill having this object in view, to be presented to 
the legislature at its next s^psion, and in order to have a full expression as to what 
should be embodied in such bill, it was decided to urge upon all members of the 
Association the necessity for their presence at the next quarterly meeting, to be 
held in this city during fair week in September next. 
The meeting will be open to stock owners and others interested in this sub¬ 
ject, and a cordial invitation is extended to all such to be present. 
At the evening meeting able and interesting papers were read as follows : 
“ The Therapeutics of Catarrhal Fever, ” by Dr. Epperson, of Ottawa. 
“The Clinical Therapeutics of Catarrh, ” by Dr. E. R. Allen, of Kansas City, 
Cattle Inspector for Kansas at the Kansas City stock yards. 
“Parturient Apoplexy, ” by Dr. Epperson. 
This latter paper, as its title indicates, treats of a disease that follows calving, 
and is therefore of wide interest. It will be given to the press at an early day. 
There was a general discussion of the papers read, and various cases occurring 
in the practice of the members were presented and discussed. 
The meeting was quite interesting and profitable to those present. 
Teachers during vacation, farmers’ sons when work is slack on 
the farm, and any others not fully and profitably employed, can
