CORRESPONDENCE. 
for the year, in the Live Stock Owners’ Mutual Benefit Associa¬ 
tion. This covers the loss of one or all the horses during that 
time, and veterinary services for the same period, and the exami¬ 
nation of which constituted a punch in the ribs, to which the 
patient gave the usual response, and so was pronounced a fit sub¬ 
ject for insurance. It would seem to me that this concern is 
offering a little more than it can do, at least the party in question 
thought so, as they said they would wish to keep their own vet¬ 
erinary services, so I write this with no hard feeling in the matter. 
There is another insurance affair, called the Horse Owners’ 
Mutual Benefit and Indemnity Society, but which has some re¬ 
gard for veterinarians, it having a consulting veterinary surgeon. 
I have been written to from out of town regarding this in¬ 
surance question, and I need hardly say that I have not endorsed 
the first-named, nor could I do so conscientiously, but I have not 
hesitated in saying that the Horse Owners’ Mutual Benefit and 
Indemnity Society were not apparently offering to do more than 
they could carry out. In short, the one should be endorsed by 
the veterinary profession, and the other should not—a view I 
hope most of your readers will approve. 
Yours truly, 
W. H. Pendry, D.V.S. 
A CORRECTION. 
Paterson, N. J., March 7th, 1887. 
Editor American Veterinary Review : 
The act to regulate the practice of veterinary medicine and 
surgery in the State of New Jersey, as printed in the March 
number of the Review, contains an error which I desire to rec¬ 
tify. In the second section, “ two years’ experience,” etc., should 
read, “ ten years’ experience.”
