Twenty-Third Anniversary Meeting of the United States Veterinary 
ioal Association at the Rossmore Hotel—why held there—but few States 
int—usual absence of reports from the various committees—vote on the pa- 
offered to compete for the Association and Review prizes—Dr. T. S. Butler, 
hio, receives it—the offer of prizes to be continued, and greater competition 
3 d for. Contagious Pleuro-Pneumonia— the outbreak at Quebec—a letter to 
Breeders' Gazette. Inoculation against Anthrax— the Association’s Com- 
i 3e on Diseases again recommends it—the Breeders' Gazette and other papers 
le same—it is practised all over the world, then why not here. Veterinary 
i grioultural Colleges— is veterinary education too complicated, and should 
i i left to agricultural colleges to make veterinarians—is the curriculum of 
•inary colleges as at present arranged, likely to deter agricultural students 
entering the ranks of the profession. Pasteur and his Work, by George 
ling—an excellent companion for every veterinarian. 
TWENT} 7 -THIRD ANNUAL MEETING OF THE UNITED STATES VeT- 
tary Medical Association. —By special selection (?) of a com- 
:ee of the Comitia Minora of the United States Veterinary 
lical Association, the twenty-third anniversary was held on 
21st of September, at the Bossmore Hotel, in this city. Why 
selection was made in preference to one of the numerous 
ropriate halls, where similar scientific bodies are accustomed 
nd accommodations, may seem to be a strange inquiry to make, 
y a room was not engaged in the Academy of Medicine, the 
t Library building, or the Cooper Union building, or why the 
are rooms of one of the two veterinary colleges of this city 
e overlooked is not very clear to the minds of all the members.
