Prof. A. Liautard , V.S., New York City: 
Dear Sir —At a meeting of the Ohio State Veterinary Med¬ 
ical Association resolutions were passed instructing us to write 
the different veterinary colleges, with a view of having their 
views on the three following questions: 
1st. That the applicant for admission be required to pass a 
matriculatory examination in reading, spelling, writing, grammar, 
arithmetic and possess a good common school education. 
2d. That the term of study shall be increased from two 
terms, as it now is, to three. 
3d. That such student shall be required to devote the inter¬ 
vening summer months under some qualified veterinary surgeon. 
I desire to have your views on the above subject in full, in order 
that I may present a full report to our Association at its next 
regular meeting, which takes place second Tuesday in January, 
1886, at Mt. Vernon, Ohio, at which time we will pleased to have 
you with us. Yours truly, 
W. C. Fair, Cor. Secretary.
