McKim , stating that Dr. Peters of Lin coln had recommended him ns suitable to go to the Philippines ns veterinnrinn nnd stated that if he would accept a con tract to remain for two years at a salary of $100 a mouth and transportation to wire a reply at once as he must be prepared - pared to leave San Francisco September 1. This is the second offer of the kind Mr. McKim has had , the other being at the time of the Iowa-Nebraska veteri nary meeting at Omaha last fall when two veterinarians wore wanted. Dr. McKim has refused both offers for vari ous reasons , the principal of which is that the government does not rank its veterinarians with doctors nnd dentists , but with the non-commissioned officers. A bill was recently introduced iu con gress , that had the support of veterin arians , to change their rank in the army but it did not pass and consequently the graduates of the better colleges of veter inary surgeons have practically boy cotted the service. Another reason given by Mr. McKim is that ho cannoi afford to leave his practice here at the salary offered. Ho would bo compel ! oi to live out of the $100 a mouth and as living there is considered high ho woulc not have a largo margin of profit for his work. Kalamazoo celery at Glissmim'e.
