given, and on motion accepted. 
Dr. R. C. Hill read reports of cases.* 
The chair appointed the following committee to audit the 
books of the Secretary and Treasurer and to report to-morrow 
morning: Drs. E. W. Carl, P. A. Dillaliunt, R. J. Michener. 
Dr. G. R. Teeple, of Napoleon, made application for mem¬ 
bership, vouched for by Drs. Carl and Blattenburg, and under 
suspension of the rules was elected to membership. 
The remainder of the evening was taken up in discussing 
the treatment of tetanus, some claiming good results from the 
carbolic acid treatment, while others found the treatment as 
severe as the disease, the hypodermic injections of the acid 
* causing immense sloughing of tissue. 
Just at this point the meeting adjourned because the electric 
lights went out (n p. m.), to meet in the morning at the Uni¬ 
versity Veterinary Hospital and conduct clinics. 
January 77.—We convened as per adjournment, and as 
proof that clinics are successful was the number of members in 
attendance. 
.We failed to keep a record of the clinics, but remember 
‘ Cunean Tenotomy,” by Dr. Hillock ; “ Spaying Bitch,” by Dr. 
Blattenburg ; “ Firing for Spavin,” by Dr. Frederick ; “ Intra¬ 
venous Injection of Hydrate of Chloral to Produce Anaesthesia,” 
by Dr. Brumley ; “ Peroneophalangeal Tenotomy,” and “ Med¬ 
ian Neurectomy.” 
After the clinics we again convened. The Auditing Commit¬ 
tee rendered the following report: “ We, your committee ap¬ 
pointed to audit the books of this association, find the accounts 
all correct, and that there is a balance in the treasury of 
$279.44. R. J. Michener, P. A. Direahunt, Committee .”
