yETERINARIANIsM.

would be well for this association to APP
point a veterinarian of its own-and one
who has had considerable experience in
the old country with the various forms of
contagious cattle diseases.
Territorial Veterinarian Hopkins said
that whilst England has had more to con-
tend with than our country, she is no bet
ter off in scientific skill to cope with con-
tagious diseases.
Colonel Rabbit was not in favor of a
~pennywise or pound foolish policy. He
did not think the time had yet arrived to
warrant the importation of a foreign
veterinarian. AS yet no contagious dis
ease has appeared in Wyoming.
Mr. Sturgis said that Wyoming has a
better law than Illinois or New York, the
only two states in the Union having a
veterinarian law. Our territorial veterin-
arian has had vast experience in the last
named state. As matters now stand,
Wyoming is sufficiently protected under
her existing law.
