standing the fact that since the opening of the college in 1875, a 
period of nine years, it has always occupied the place in its 
columns allowed to it, as due to one of the medical schools of the 
State of New York. 
According to the Medical Register the only veterinary college 
existing the present year, in this State, is the New York College 
of Veterinary Surgeons. Is it because the editor of the Register 
is also the president and professor in that institution, that it is the 
only one thought worthy of hospitality in the pages of the 
Register ? Leaving the answer of this query to the judgment 
of our readers, we take pleasure in now announcing that a vetei” 
inary register is now in process of publication and that in a short 
time veterinarians will no longer be obliged to depend on de¬ 
ficient and biased directories for information concerning that 
profession. 
NEW INSTRUMENTS. 
The handy little forge invented by Dr. C. H. Peabody, 
of Providence, R. I., is already known to some of us, having 
been exhibited by its 
inventor in New York 
and Boston at meetings 
of the United States 
Veterinary Medinal As¬ 
sociation. Since, how¬ 
ever, it has been con¬ 
siderably improved, and 
to-day is offered to the 
profession at a very low 
figure. It is most con¬ 
venient, and must find 
its way into every veter¬ 
inarian’s arsenal. It is 
small, neat, sufficiently 
powerful to heat several irons in a few minutes, can be carried 
easily, and, at the price fixed, is at the disposal of every one. 
Full particulars can be obtained by applying to the inventor.
