Some Digestibility Trials on Indian Feeding Stuffs
[XVII
Katha sugarcane is usually fed as a substitute for wheat bhusa during fodder scarcity. It has,
however turned out to be inferior to wheat bhusa as it is one and a half times richer in
protein than sugarcane though total digestible nutrients in both the cases are almost the same. No
doubt wheat bhusa contains higher percentage of fibre, but its digestibility is higher than that of
sugarcane (Wheat bhusa contains 25.0 per cent digestible crude fibre while sugarcane contains 16.7
per cent only on dry matter basis). In order to bring up wheat bhusa and sugarcane to a maintenance
level, heifers No. 199 and J. D. were given wheat bhusa ad lib. and 42 gm. of nitrogen in toria cake
and heifers 171,200 and 212 were fed 45 gm. of nitrogen in toria cake with sugarcane given ad lib.
With almost equal amounts of added nitrogen in their daily ration the heifers fed on wheat bhusa
showed a positive daily nitrogen balance of 14 gm., whilst the group fed on sugarcane showed a
positive daily nitrogen balance of 4.5 gm. only (Table V, which indicates the superiority of the
protein in wheat bhusa.

SUMMARY
Digestibility coefficients of different constituents of sugarcane (Katha desi variety) were deter-
mined with five Sahiwal heifers.
Sugarcane contains 19.8 lb. to 23.8 lb. total digestible nutrients per 100 lb. of the feed. When
fed alone it forms a non-maintenance ration. It is inferior to wheat bhusa as a cattle feed.

The results of the examination of samples 1, which were taken immediately before the first
injection, are shown in Table II. In samples taken previously from the left hind quarter of cow 91
and from the right front quarter of cow 27, the plate count of staphylococci was much higher than in
samples 1, being 11,000 and 14,000 per c.c, respectively. A great variation in the number of staphy-
lococci in samples from the same source, even when they are collected at short intervals, has been
reported by a number of investigators.

DISCUSSION OF RESULTS
The results of the examination for staphylococci of the samples collected after the injection of
penicillin was begun and in the period following the last injection from the quarters receiving 8 injec-
tions are given in Table III. Similar information regarding the samples from the quarters receiving
4 injections is presented in Table IV. On examination of these Tables, it will be seen that staphy-
lococci did not appear on any of the plates inoculated with the milk samples numbered 2, 3, 4 and 5,
from either group. Those from the quarters included in Table III were taken after 2 injections of
penicillin had been given, the last six hours before, while those in Table IV had received 1 injection
twelve hours previously. These results indicate that the antibacterial action of the penicillin continued
for 12 hours and that up to this stage of the experiment, 4 injections at 12 hour intervals
were as effective as 8 at six hour intervals.
The treated quarter of cow 91 remained free of the infection during the entire period the examina-
tion of milk samples was continued, i.e. for 13 days after the last injection. It is probable that
the quarter treated in cow 1 also remained free of the original infection since the nonhemolytic strain
of staphylococci in samples 6, 7, 8 and 9 from the quarter did not coagulate human-blood plasma as
did the nonhemolytic strain which infected this quarter prior to the injection of penicillin. Both
these quarters received 8 injections at intervals of six hours. The two other quarters given the

Clothing.
Ablution, &c.
The clothing has been the same description as heretofore ; the summer suits are
issued early in April, and the winter ones in October. Straw
mattresses, jhamps to the open doors, taut purdahs and extra
blankets to the sick or infirm have been provided ; the greatest attention has been paid
in keeping the clothing in good order and perfectly clean, while
the patients themselves undergo ablution at the washing places
built for this purpose.
General and Medical His-
tory.
On the 1st of January, 1868, there were 205 patients under treatment, viz., males
166, females 39 ; and the admissions during the year have
amounted to 171, making a total of 376.

REMARKS.
( 6 )
of provisions, and considering that it includes establishment, dieting, clothing, bedding,
bazar medicines and contingencies, 0-3-3 per man per diem cannot, I think, be considered
extravagant.
Occupation of lunatics.
The occupation of the lunatics have continued of the
same description as heretofore. Out of the full number of inmates,
161 have been constantly employed. Every care is taken to prevent the work being too
laborious or irksome, and that it is suited to the strength and disposition of the in-
dividual. Every patient capable of employment is encouraged and persuaded to oocupy
his time, and good conduct is rewarded with sweetmeats, tobacco, &c. There can be no
doubt that suitable occupation has the most beneficial effect, both mentally and physically,
on lunatics. As a rule the conduct of the patients has been most orderly and quiet, and
visitors constantly remarked that they could hardly believe they are mad, the majority
being so quiet and well behaved.
Establishment.
Owing to increased loss of vision, Mr. Wilson, the former Deputy Superintendent,
was obliged, in June last, to resign his appointment in the Asylum;
the injuries he received on his head, and the nervous shock to
his system resulting from the assault, no doubt had the effect of increasing his blindness.
On representing this sad case, Government has generously granted him a small pension
for life. Mr. Wilson's place has been filled up by Mr. A. Glegg, a retired Apothecary,
and I believe a more fortunate selection could not have been made. Mr. Glegg possesses
qualifications particularly suited for the appointment. His professional knowledge, com-
bined with a thorough acquaintance with the habits and peculiarities of natives, together
with a kind and considerate manner towards them, has already made him most popular
and respected by all the inmates ; he has conducted his duties with the greatest zeal and
discretion, and devotes his whole time and attention to the welfare of the lunatics and
general supervision of the entire establishment and institution.
The Native Doctor, Mirza Koodrut Ali, has continued to give me the greatest satis-
faction. He suffered much from fever during the epidemic in November, but insisted in
remaining at his post, until I compelled him to seek temporary change of air. His
thorough acquaintance with the history and character of each individual lunatic renders
him invaluable in the Asylum.
Mrs. Sinnott, the matron, has performed her duties to my entire satisfaction, and
a great improvement has taken place in the conduct and general discipline of the female
ward, since she took charge of it.
The rest of the establishment have also conducted their duties properly, and no
instance of unnecessary harshness or bad treatment of lunatics has occurred.
Commissions of Lunacy
and Visitors.
Commissions of Lunacy have been held on Criminal
lunatics as occasion required, and the Asylum has been regularly
inspected by the Official Visitors.

PROCEEDINGS OF THE HON'BLE THE LIEUTENANT-GOVER-
NOR OF THE PUNJAB, IN THE GENERAL DEPARTMENT,
UNDER DATE 1ST MAY, 1869.
READ—Annual Report of the Lahore Lunatic Asylum for the year 1868, furnished by Dr. C. M. Smith,
Civil Surgeon, submitted with Commissioner's docket, No. 985, dated 16th April 1869.
1. His Honor is glad to observe that great improvements have been
made during the year in the building and premises of the Asylum by, (1),
the construction of quarantine wards for male and female patients, (2) the
effectual separation of the Criminal ward from the rest of the building, (3)
the erection of seven new isolated solitary cells in the Criminal ward for
dangerous lunatics, and other buildings. His Honor believes that in regard to
the cubical and lateral space allowed the inmates, and other arrangements for
their comfort, there is nothing to be desired ; nevertheless His Honor re-
grets to observe that the mortality, though less than the mortality of 1867,
was still high.
2. It appears to have resulted chiefly from the presence of an infec-
tious type of fever during the months of August, September, October, and
November. The type of fever is said to have been prevalent in the city and
neighbourhood, but no direct evidence of its importation into the Asylum is
afforded, and it nowhere appears to have caused such mortality as in the
Asylum ; moreover this is the third successive year in which there has been
excessive mortality among the patients. From this, it would appear that
there must be some local predisposing cause to disease in the Asylum ; the
local cause in considered by the Sanitary Commissioner to be the exceed-
ingly unsatisfactory character of the water. Whether this be the case or
not, it is clear that no exertion should be spared to remove every possible
cause of such lamentable mortality, and accordingly His Honor is prepared
at once to sanction the arrangements proposed for procuring a permanent
supply of pure water from the Canal.
3. The melancholy out-break of the 24th March has already formed
the subject of separate communication, and need not be further adverted to
in this place.
4. His Honor is gratified to learn the satisfactory manner in which
Mr. Glegg, the Deputy Superintendent, and the Matron, Mrs. Sinnott, have
performed their duties. The Native Doctor, Mirza Kudrut Ali, can receive
a donation of one month's pay in acknowledgment of his services.
ORDERED, that the Report be printed, and that the acknowledgments
of the Government be conveyed to Dr. C. M. Smith, Civil Surgeon, for the
care and attention bestowed upon the Asylum.
By order of the Hon'ble the Lieutenant-Governor,
Secretary to Government, Punjab.
