logy was sweet but weak, and he has risked to make himself 
the champion of a dying cause. 
When anybody attacks the United States meat inspection 
service, Dr. Salmon’s patriotism gets immediately aroused, and 
he violently throws mud at the foreigners. But in weighing the 
conditions of our profession in our own country Dr. Salmon does 
not exhibit that patriotism and pride which we ought justly ex¬ 
pect from him in his influential position. 
I do not write this to criticise but to suggest, for I firmly be¬ 
lieve that the time has come when our American veterinary col¬ 
leges—all of them—need remodelling to bring them up to a 
higher plane, and I sincerely hope that before long the worthy 
chief and president of the Washington College will join hands 
with us in helping to accomplish this patriotic duty.
