President appointed Drs. Hoskins and Rhoads as a committee of 
two to take this matter in charge. They made appeal to those 
present and raised $30. 
Dr. Rhoads moved that the President appoint a committee 
of three to draft resolutions directed to Dr. Salmon, pledging 
the support, morally and financially, of the K. V. M. A. in this 
work. The application for membership of Dr. J. M. Meany, 
of Maple Shade, N. J., having been favorably reported by the 
Board of Censors, was now voted upon and he was unanimously 
elected to active membership. 
The association now adjourned to meet June 14, at which 
time Dr. Harger will open discussion on “ Quittor.” 
The June meeting was called to order by the President, Dr. 
Leonard Pearson, at 8 p. m., on the 14th, with the following 
members of the profession present: Drs. Charles Goentner, 
W. H. Hoskins, W. G. Shaw, T. B. Rayner, S. J. J. Harger, 
Charles Lintz, J. W. Adams, Nicholson, J. M. Mecray, McGary, 
H. D. Hackler, Land, Cunningham, Spaeth, P. K. Jones, 
Spindler, M. W. Drake, W. Ridge and W. L. Rhoads. Dr. 
John W. Adams read a paper on u Operative Treatment for 
Cribbing,” and stood the test of all sorts of questions from all 
and valuable suggestions. Dr. S. J. J. Harger opened the dis¬ 
cussion on u Quittor.” This subject was well entered into, thor¬ 
oughly sifted, and discussed. Dr. W. Horace Hoskins and 
others thoroughly aired the recognition the army veterinarian 
should receive, but does not get. 
The meeting adjourned to meet September 16th, as this date 
would not conflict with the trip of those members who attend 
the Omaha meeting, at which time Dr. Leonard Pearson will 
give a talk on veterinary notes from Europe. 
The September meeting was held on the 16th, having been 
postponed from the 13th, that our members who were at Omaha 
might have time to return and tell of the sights and pleasures, 
but, sad to relate, their chaperon lost his bearings going out 
and traveled hundreds of miles around ; those who arrived on 
time became so engrossed with their initiation into one of the 
large Western lodges and their progress in the art of camel¬ 
riding, that the meeting was as yet a week too soon for them. 
Our President being absent, Dr. J. T. McAnulty was called 
to the chair, and the meeting convened with the following 
members of the profession present: Drs. T. B. Rayner, James
