Abstract
THE prominent position which veterinary research occupies in the scientific life of South Africa to-day and the valuable practical results which have been obtained in this field of work have encouraged me to choose as the subject of my address the rôle which veterinary science plays in the agricultural development of a country. For obvious reasons my remarks will be confined almost exclusively to the live-stock side of agriculture in the wider sense; and for equally obvious reasons most of my examples will be quoted from South Africa.
