MY EXPERIENCE WITH ANTI-HOG CHOLERA SERUM. 
705 
healthy hogs because practically all have told me that their hogs 
picked up and have done better since vaccination. 
I would like to hear the subject discussed more thoroughly, 
but will say from my experience that I consider vaccination a 
great success and a treatment that will always be used. 
Nine resolutions were offered at the Utica meeting of the 
New York State Veterinary Medical Society and unanimously 
adopted. The last five were as follows: 
Whereas, the subject of sanitary inspection is assuming such 
importance in the preservation of the health of the community 
and whereas the local communities are unprotected from un¬ 
wholesome food products, thereby endangering human life; be it 
Resolved, That this society again go on record in recommend¬ 
ing state, as well as local meat and milk inspection by veterina¬ 
rians. 
Inasmuch as there is a decrease in the number and quality of 
the horses in the state of New York, due in a large measure to 
improper and unprofitable breeding, and, 
Whereas the conditions may be improved by the introduction 
of stallions of suitable breeds and quality; be it 
Resolved, That this society use every legitimate means in con¬ 
junction with the New York State Breeders’ Association and the 
New York State Horse Breeders’ Association to bring about a 
stallion regulation law. 
Whereas, the office of Commissioner of Agriculture is sub¬ 
ject to change of administration, your committee recommends the 
indorsement by the society at this session of the resolution 
adopted a year ago, establishing a Live Stock Sanitary Board 
and the office of State Veterinarian. 
Resolved, That we here assembled recommend to the legis¬ 
lative committee that they again have introduced in the Legis¬ 
lature the proposed amendment to the Veterinary Medical law, as 
introduced at the last session. 
Your committee desires to place the society on record as being 
in favor of amending the agricultural law relative to the eradica¬ 
tion of tuberculosis in such a way that it will be possible to 
remove the obvious and suspicious cases from the dairy herds of 
the state.
