Abstract
IN the second fortnightly number for October of the Agricultural Journal of the Cape of Good Hope is given a long report of a Conference between the Hon. Mr. Faure, Minister for Agriculture, Mr. Hutcheon (C.V.S.), Dr. Turner, Dr. Edington and Dr. Kolle on the question of inoculation against rinderpest. This account is followed by the Resolution of Conference, by a letter from Dr. Edington and by one from Mr. Hutcheon, in the latter of which is given a review of the different methods of inoculation now used for the purpose of obtaining a certain degree of immunity against rinderpest in the cattle of South Africa. As so many different statements concerning the exact methods used at the Cape by Koch, by Edington, and by Turner and Kolle, and also by Messrs. Danyz and Bordet, have been promulgated, a summary of these various methods may be of interest.
