Tuberculosis in Short-Horns. —It is said that as a sequel 
of the application of the stamping out of pleuro-pneumoma, 
the sanitary authorities have discovered the serious fact that the 
number of tuberculous cows in the dairies of Edinburg was 
of 22%, and in those of London 12%. 
Veterinary Organization in Turkey. —A veterinary 
service has been organized by the Sultan’s order. Candidates 
must be Ottomans, and hold a diploma delivered by one of the 
Turkish veterinary schools. Ottomans having a foreign diploma 
must be submitted to an examination. Foreign veterinarians 
may be admitted to practice but must also submit themselves to 
an examination. Civil veterinarians are divided in four classes, 
and receive various salaries. There are ten veterinary inspectors 
for the sanitary service of the frontiers. 
Admission in German Veterinary Schools.— The Ger¬ 
man Veterinary Council , representing ail the veterinary societies 
of the Empire, some 2,000 veterinarians, have petitioned the 
Chancellor of Germany to obtain that students shall not be ad¬ 
mitted in veterinary colleges unless having received the degrees 
which are required to allow matriculation in the universities of 
the Empire. France and Belgium have already those require¬ 
ments; a diploma of bachelor is required in those countries.
