Kock, Zuill, Harger, took an active part in the discussion and 
brought on very interesting views on the subject. After voting 
that the next meeting shall be held in Pittsburg the Association 
adjourned. 
KEYSTONE VETERINARY MEDICAL ASSOCIATION. 
The monthly meeting of the K. V. M. A. was held at the 
home of Dr. W. S. Kooker, No. 662 W. nth St., Philadelphia, 
Tuesday evening, April 9th. After enjoying some fine music 
the meeting was called to order by Dr. Eves as President Lintz 
was not present. 
The subject of Cerebo Spinal Meningites brought forth quite 
an animated discussion, also some reminiscences very pleasant 
and otherwise to the practioner most deeply interested at the 
time. 
A case was cited of a driving mare, taking this disease and 
dying in four days after being hitched near an infected stable 
not longer than half an hour. 
A case was also cited of Broodmare with foal at foot, which 
had not been out of upland pasture, and apparently very healthy 
location, for two months. She died within two days after show¬ 
ing symptoms of disease. 
The Legislation of the past year was sifted and thoroughly 
discussed. The bill compelling all institutions receiving State 
aid to buy only meats killed within the State, also the bill com¬ 
pelling all meats shipped into the State to undergo a veterinari¬ 
an’s examination were both unanimously condemed as they were 
not in the interest of the people. 
After a very interestieg and highly instructive meeting the 
Society adjourned to meet at the office of Dr. W. H. Hoskins, 
May 14th. 
Those fortunate enough to be present hoping Brother 
Kookers future years may be as pleasant and instructive as the 
entertainment given them.
