When the wound has been closed and cleaned, apply an 
old-fashioned dressing of pine tar and turpentine, 6 to i. The 
turpentine is added only to make the tar a little more fluid, 
and the mixture gives a dressing which protects the wound 
fairly well from outside factors and yet will readily allow the 
escape of fluids should such collect. As a further protection 
againt flies, dust a generous coating of iodoform or iodoform 
diluted with boracic acid over the tar mixture. Allow fluid 
diet for the first two or three days, and gradually come on 
to the more solid and bulky. Give a daily application of 
iodoform to the operation site; remove the end sutures on 
the seventh or eighth day if all is well, and the middle one 
on the tenth day.

The present month will witness the opening of every 
veterinary college on this continent, and, as they have become 
quite numerous, we present herewith a general resume of the 
salient points connected with each of them. We have classi¬ 
fied them according to the number of terms which are neces¬ 
sary to be attended previous to graduation, and have omitted 
adjunct chairs and collateral branches. We have omitted 
Cornell, for the reason that she does not become a veterinary 
college until next year, and the California school because we 
have not accurate data upon the subject. 
The list will be found to contain the fundamental branches 
taught, with the teacher in charge of each; the fees charged; 
and the address of the executive officer of each institution.
