out of the barn for months; the horse had scars on both sides,

operated on without success; horse died in a few days; cause un¬

Secretary C. A. Cary writes: “A joint meeting of the Ala¬ 
bama and Georgia Veterinary Medical Associations will be held 
at Auburn, Ala., in the Veterinary College of the Alabama Poly¬ 
technic Institute, August 2 and 3. This meeting will be one of 
the best ever held by the two associations and it is hoped that it 
will arouse sufficient interest to get all graduate veterinarians in 
Alabama and Georgia into their respective state associations.”
