respectively. The Superintendent of Amraoti was in very bad health in the
last quarter, and subsequently died, and the Superintendent of Akola was ill
with influenza; hence the decrease of work in these two districts.
In regard to the total number verified, Superintendent Mahadeo Bulwant
of the Wun district takes first place, followed by Superintendents Ramrattan
of Akola district and Gangadhar of Basim district.
In order of merit the work of District Superintendents stands as fol¬

The above table shows the work performed in each municipality during
the year under report. The ratios of primary protection in all the municipa-
lities, with the exception of Karanja and Akot, were above the birth-rate. The
low rate in Karanja is due to the Act being only a short time in force in that
municipality. The difference in Akot is too trivial to be of any consequence.
