SOCIETY MEETINGS. 
NEW YORK STATE VETERINARY SOCIETY. 
The regular monthly meeting of the New York State Veterinary Soceity was 
leld in the lecture-room of the American Veterinary College, Dr. R. W. Finlay 
n the chair. 
Minutes of last meeting were read, and on motion were adopted. 
At the request of the Chair, Dr. Faust stated to the meeting that he had 
ately been telegraphed for by the Board of Health of Dutchess County, to exam- 
ne a herd of three hundred and fifty calves, which had been brought from Dela- 
vare, nothing wrong being noticed until they reached Dutchess County, when it 
vas supposed that they were affected with contagious pleuro-pneumonia. This 
le found was not the case, but they were in a very bad way, and he expected 
ibout half the herd would die. It was a case of strangylus filaris, which was 
>roved by examination of those that had died. Some held it was not contagious, 
>ut he considered it was, as in this instance, some cattle in an adjoining field 
vhere the calves were had become affected. In one case only did he find solidi- 
ication of the lung, which he considered secondary. 
Dr. R. A. McLean considered the trouble a traumatic one, and the question 
vas, where did the first cenception take place, were the filaris inhaled in Dela- 
vare ? After some discussion had been indulged in he spoke of a case of glanders 
hat he lately had, in which a so-called veterinary surgeon had been prosecuted 
or treating, and for which he was fined one hundred dollars or one hundred days
