THE AMERICAN VETERINARY REVIEW PRIZE. 
We desire to call the attention of our friends in the profession 
to our offer of a premium of a Gold Medal, valued at Fifty 
Dollars, for the most excellent of the essays offered for publica¬ 
tion in the Review, and which must be understood to be quite 
independent of the prize offered by the United States Veterinary 
Medical Association, and additional to that or any other similar 
proposition. 
We repeat the terms and method of the contest; 
Each essay is to be enclosed in a sealed envelope , on which some 
distinguishing motto, selected by the author, is to be inscribed. 
This must be accompanied by a second envelope, securely sealed, 
inscribed in duplicate with the same motto, and enclosing a card 
containing the name and address of the writer. The name of the 
successful essayist will be ascertained , after publication, by a 
majority vote of the members of the Association, voting upon the 
distinguishing mottoes, and only after the question has been irre¬ 
vocably determined will the envelope be opened in which the name 
of the successful essayist has been deposited. 
Each member of the profession, in and out of the Association, 
subscriber or not subscriber of the Review, {s entitled to compete.
