PART V.—EXPENDITURE OF THE DEPARTMENT.
50. Table XIV(a) shows the expenditure of the department.
The total expenditure during the year was Rs. 2,01,305-3-6
including the expenditure incurred by local boards against
Rs. 1,60,502-14-3 of the previous year. The increase in expen-
diture during the year under report is mainly due to the fact
that owing to the widespread outbreaks of rinderpest in the
province about Rs. 30,000 was spent on serum alone while in the
previous year no rinderpest serum was obtained.
51. The Local Boards in Assam incurred the following
expenditure in connection with Veterinary charges.
These
figures are furnished by the Boards :—
Veterinary instruction
Subordinate establishment
Hospitals and dispensaries

PART V.—GENERAL REMARKS.
The following remarks were made by Mr. Harris before he
proceeded on leave.
52. "The general progress made in previous years was well
maintained during the year under report. Rinderpest was more
prevalent this year. The severe floods in the Surma Valley
caused a heavy loss to the cattle owners as many cattle were
drowned. Thereafter there was a famine in cattle fodder which
greatly weakened the remaining stock. Many of the cattle died
from the result of eating unsuitable decaying vegetation. The
situation was further complicated by an extensive outbreak of
Rinderpest".
53. "The following table shows the doses of the various sera
received during the last five years " :—
Serum.

"My remarks on the subject of cruelty in previous years
Still hold good. It is regretted that there are so few men
in Assam that take any interest in the welfare of domestic
animals".
13
55. "During the year under report Veterinary Assistant
Surgeons observed 133 cases of suspected poisoning amongst
cattle, of which 121 died. This year also Sunamganj Circle
showed the largest number, viz., 45 cases of suspected poisoning,
of which all died. In one case poisoning was suspected after
inoculation. No poisoning case was confirmed by the Chemical
Examiner.
In the previous year there were 373 cases of
suspected poisoning of which all died".
56. "During the year under report 5 horses, 3 bullocks and
14 dogs were treated with anti-rabic vaccine supplied from the
Pasteur Institute, Shillong. In the previous year 2 cows and
16 dogs were successfully treated".
57. "The campaign for the castration of weedy bulls was
continued during the year".
58. "The Hon'ble Minister of Education visited the hospital
and laboratory at Gauhati and the dispensary at Sibsagar during
the year under report".
59. "Office Staff.—During the year under report the staff
carried out the clerical work in a satisfactory manner".
60 ."The Department wishes to thank the District Officers,
members of the Local Boards and private gentlemen who have
taken an interest in Veterinary work and the general welfare
of cattle".

Superintendent in charge,
Civil Veterinary Department, Assam.

APPENDIX.
REPORT OF THE VETERINARY ADMINISTRATION IN THE
MANIPUR STATE FOR THE YEAR 1929-30.
1. Personnel.—Babu
Krishna Narain continued to hold charge of the
Veterinary establishment during the year under report. He was assisted
by Muhammad Rousan Ali the 2nd Veterinary Assistant.
2. Tours.—Babu Krishna Narain was on tour for 73 days and Muham-
mad Rousan Ali for 193 days. They travelled 753 and 1,890 miles visiting
260 and 639 villages, respectively.
Rajdhon Singh, compounder was on tour for 2 days travelling 46 miles
and visited 2 villages.
3. Contagious diseases.—Deaths among animals from contagious diseases
during the year under report were as follows :—
Equines.—(a) Anthrax.—During
the year under report only a sporadic
case of anthrax at Imphal was reported and this resulted in the death of
a pony as against nil in the previous year.
(b) Surra.-It
was reported from 25 villages as against from 5 places
in the previous year and prevailed from August to December 1929. This
disea e carried away 166 ponies as against 24 in the previous year.
(c) Other contagious diseases.—Seventeen deaths were reported under
this head though diagnosis may have been inaccurate as these were noted
during tour.
Bovines.—(a) Foot-and-mouth disease.—This disease appeared during
the 1st quarter of the year and was reported from 18 places as against 277
in the previous year. It is gratifying to note that no death occurred as
against 230 deaths in the previous year.
(b) Black quarter.— There were 21 deaths from this disease in the bills
at Ukhrul and Tadabi as against 6 deaths in the previous year in 3 different
places.
(c) Anthrax.—No care was reported during the year as against 9 deaths
and several sporadic cares in different places in the previous year.
(d) Other contagious diseases.—Fifty-eight deaths were recorded on tour
as against 83 in the previous year. For these no accurate diagnosis was
possible as the cases were detected long after the actual death.
Other animals.— (a) Babies.—Two deaths amongst canines were reported
during the year. There was no death in the previous year.
