AMERICAN  PHARMACEUTICAL  ASSOCIATION. 
507 
on  motion  of  Joseph  Laidley,  the  following  resolution  in  relation 
thereto  was  adopted  : 
Resolved,  That  the  letter  of  Mr.  Meakim,  in  reference  to  securing 
uniformity  in  the  preparation  of  unofficinal  compounds  be  referred 
to  the  Executive  Committee,  with  instructions  to  request  the  for- 
warding to  them  of  such  local  formulae  as  pharmaceutists  may  wish 
to  communicate. 
[It  may  be  stated  in  explanation  of  this  resolution,  that  Mr.  Meakim's  propo- 
sition has  reference  to  those  extemporaneous  formulae,  and  perhaps  some  perma- 
nent preparations,  which  are  more  especially  known  and  prescribed  in  certain 
localities  than  in  others,  and  which  when  prescribed  in  other  places  by  stranger 
physicians,  are  either  not  understood  or  liable  to  be  misinterpreted.  The  object 
of  the  resolution  is  to  collect  these  through  the  agency  of  the  Executive  Com- 
mittee, have  them  digested  into  a  formulary,  and  published  either  in  the  Pro- 
ceedings, the  Journals,  or  in  some  other  way. — Editor.]
