The repulsion of diseased molar, with removal of the exter¬ 
nal alveolar wall with artificial drainage of the pus-containing 
sinuses through the nostril, has recovered satisfactorily. Those 
who saw the case will remember the bulging of the face, the 
foetid odor, the repulsive nasal discharge and the poor condition 
of the animal. The foetor ceased in a few days, as soon as the 
wounds in the bone could begin to granulate. The nasal dis¬ 
charge ceased immediately, the wounds healed promptly, the 
animal was returned to regular work and looks and feels better 
than for a long time prior to operation. 
Next year when the association meets at Ithaca it will find 
a better arranged clinic, at least as extensive and instructive as 
the one just past, and without duplicating the cases of this 
year. We hope that veterinarians will suggest clinical opera¬ 
tions they desire to see next year and that more members volun¬ 
teer to assist in them. In any case the meeting will be su¬ 
perior to the one held this year, the degree of superiority to 
depend upon the advice and assistance of New York veterh 
narians. W. L. W.
