It will be seen from the above table that the average inspection work, both,
primary and re-vaccination, done by each Superintendent was 47.0 per cent.
In former years inspection work of primary vaccination was only shown in
this table, but in accordance with instructions received from the Government
of India—vide Home Depart ment / sani t ary letter No. 4319, dated 7th November 1898, to the
Resident at Hyderabad—revaccination is now included, which lowers the per-
centage of work done by each Superintendent considerably.
In taking the primary work alone, the average work done by each Super.
intendent was 55.6 as against 53.1 in the previous year and 55.8 in 1896-97.
Ellichpur and Buldana were the highest with a percentage of 69.3 and
60.3 respectively; Amraoti and Akola being the lowest, with 47.5 and 49.1

Extract from the Proceedings of the Resident at Hyderabad, No. 2234, dated
Hyderabad Residency, the 29th June 1899.
READ—
The Report on Vaccination in the Hyderabad Assigned Districts for the year 1898-99.
RESOLUTION.
The Report on Vaccination for the year 1898-99 was received by the Resi-
dent from the Sanitary Commissioner, Lieutenant-Colonel Swaine, on the 2nd
May, and the Commissioner's review on the 12th June 1899.
2. The record of the year's working of the Vaccination Department as
shown in table No. 1 in paragraph 4 of the Sanitary Commissioner's Report has
been satisfactory. Under the system in force calves are vaccinated from lymph
of proved efficacy, and the vaccinated animals are then distributed throughout
the province by means of the regular staff of vaccinators, of whom there are 45
under the supervision of 7 Native Inspectors. This simple plan works effi-
ciently in practice, and is in accord with popular opinion and feeling. The
total number of operations performed was 132,903, or 7,714 more than in
1897-98, and the average number performed by each vaccinator was 3,020
Berar thus heads the list compared with other provinces in the average amount
of work done by each vaccinator. The increase in the number of vaccination
operations was due to re-vaccination, which rose from 30,241 in 1897-98 to
38,871 in 1898-99. Primary vaccinations numbered 94,032, or 1,016 less than
in the previous year, the falling off being satisfactorily explained by the low
birth-rate, which was the indirect result of the previous year's famine. Primary
vaccinations were more successful than in 1897-98, the percentage of success
rising from 96.4 to 97.1: on the other hand, re-vaccinations were much less
"successful," the percentage falling from 30.0 to 23.1. Estimating the birth-
rate at 31.3 per mille, about 96 per cent. of the infants born were protected
against 93.3 in 1897-98.
3. The Sanitary Commissioner has, in accordance with the orders con-
tained in Home Department letter No. 4319, dated 7th November 1898, included
re-vaccinations in table V, in which the inspection work by the staff of District
Superintendents is shown. In 1897-98 each Superintendent verified on an
average 53.1 per cent. of primary vaccinations and 13 per cent. of re-vaccina-
tions, while in the year under review the corresponding percentages were 55.6
and 26.3, giving an aggregate of 47.0—a result which the Resident regards
with approval. The number of inspections of re-vaccinations should, how-
ever, have been higher both in Amraoti and Buldana.
4. The efficacy of vaccination in diminishing mortality from small-pox
is clearly brought out in table No. 7 and in the diagram on page 5 of the
report. The district of Buldana, in which alone there was no increase in the
number of re-vaccinations, displays the least benefit from vaccination. The
laxity in this district brought its own punishment, for an outbreak of small-
pox occurred which appears inexplicable except on the ground that re-vacci-
nation had been neglected. It would have been interesting to know what
proportion of the mortality in Buldana fell respectively on the unvaccinated
-and on the re-vaccinated.

5. The Resident is glad to notice that it has been unnecessary this year
to report any person for obstructing officers of the department, and notes
with gratification the names of the gentlemen
mentioned in paragraph 15, who gave special
assistance. Sir Trevor Chichele-Plowden also
sanctions the grant of the rewards recommended
by the Sanitary Commissioner for the vaccinators
mentioned in the margin.

FROM
J. A. CRAWFORD, ESQ.,
Commissioner, Hyderabad Assigned Districts,
To
THE SECRETARY FOR BERAR TO THE RESIDENT,
Hyderabad.
Dated the 16th June 1900.
SIR,
I have the honour to submit the following remarks on the Sanitary Com-
missioner's statements and notes relating to vaccination during the year
1899-1900, which reached my office in print on the 14th instant.
2. There has been a large increase both in primary vaccinations (26,740)
and in re-vaccinations (16,258). The reasons mentioned in paragraph 7 of
the notes explain the increase. The famine relief works offer great facilities
for vaccination, and have attracted crowds from the Hyderabad State, where,
I understand, vaccination is much less resorted to than in Berar. There is a
marked decrease in the proportion of available infants who were protected.
Many infants on relief works and elsewhere are in wretched condition and
unfit to be vaccinated.
3. The arrangements for the manufacture of lanoline paste at a central
depôt at Amraoti and its distribution in the districts seem to have been very
economical and useful. Mr. Hollay, Superintendent of Vaccination, deserves
credit in this connection. It may be noted that the percentage of success in
operations with lanoline paste shows some falling off. There can be no doubt
as to the protective efficacy of vaccination in Berar.
4. The work done in municipalities, all of which are subject to the com-
pulsory Act, represents an increase of 2,161 primary cases and of 4,896 re-
vaccinations. Relief works and poor-houses within municipal limits may
account for some of this increase, In Khamgaon and Akot the outturn has
decreased.
5. The average of work for each vaccinator (nearly 4,000 cases) is re-
markably good, and the rewards recommended by the Sanitary Commissioner
in paragraph 16 have been well earned by extraordinary efforts on the part of
the six vaccinators mentioned.
I have the honour to be,
Sir,
Your most obedient servant,
J. A. CRAWFORD,
Commissioner, Hyderabad Assigned Districts.

86.8
The above goes to show that 86.8 per cent. of the available infants were
protected after deducting the registered deaths of infants under one year of age
assuming that all deaths under one year were unprotected. The large decrease
I attribute to a large number of infants being left unvaccinated, as owing to the
famine they were in a poor condition and not fit for vaccination.
Cost of vaccination.
10. The total cost of vaccination during the year was Rs. 18,201 as against
Rs. 17,520 in the year previous. The average
cost of each successful vaccination was 2 annas
and 3 pie as against 2 annas and 9 pie in the previous year.
Death-rate from small-pox.
11. The following table and prescribed diagram show the proportion of the
population per 1,000 and 10,000 respectively pro-
tected against small-pox for the past seven years
and the mean death-rate from the disease during 1899 :—

Diagram showing the proportion of population protected during seven years ending 1899-1900
and the death-rate from small-pox per 10,000 of population during 1899.
The above diagram demonstrates very clearly the protection afforded by
vaccination and bears evidence of the efficiency of the work done.
