Abstract
EDINBURGH.—Dr. Theobald Smith, of the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research, New York, United States, gave an address in the University on Tuesday, November 27, on comparative pathology. He emphasised the common basis-theoretical and biological-of human and animal pathology; the divergence in methods of treatment of human and of animal patients is determined in the case of the latter by economic considerations. He urged that individual treatment of animals should be replaced more and more by preventive measures, and that future stock-owners should be brought to realise this by a sound education in the princg>les underlying disease.
