Programme of work of the Civil Veterinary Department
Madras, for 1927-28.
The sanctioned cadre of Veterinary Assistant Surgeons is 223 at present.
It is proposed to open 12 veterinary dispensaries during the year
1927-28.
As the present system by which the Touring Veterinary Assistant
Surgeons are attached as 2nd Veterinary Assistant Surgeons to certain
institutions and required to attend outbreak reports only is not working
satisfactorily, it is proposed to modify the system so that the 2nd Veterinary
Assistant Surgeons attached to institutions may run camp dispensaries like
other Touring Veterinary Assistant Surgeons.

Order—No. 1501, Development, dated 22nd September 1927.
Recorded.
2. The Veterinary Adviser's report shows that the activities of
the department are steadily expanding. The number of veterinary
assistant surgeons has increased and more hospitals and dispensaries
have been opened with the result that more animals have been
treated.
3. In the year 1925-26 a change was made in the system of
touring by veterinary assistants. Previously these assistants were
expected to tour systematically but in consequence of proposals made
by the Veterinary Adviser early in 1926 the Government considered
that they might be more usefully employed in veterinary institutions
or in running camp dispensaries in taluks in which there were no such
6
No. 1501, DEVELOPMENT, 22ND SEPTEMBER 1927
institutions. It was the intention that such of these assistants as
were attached to existing institutions should attend to outbreaks of
contagious disease when required. The Veterinary Adviser has now-
stated that one result of the new arrangement has been that the number
of cases treated has decreased. In order to prevent the continuance
of such a state of affairs the Government have decided that the
veterinary assistant surgeons who were formerly expected to tour
regularly and who are now attached to institutions should run camp
dispensaries like the rest when not required to attend to outbreaks
of contagious disease. They hope that this will result in more
satisfactory work.
4. The Veterinary Adviser has drawn attention to the paucity
of staff in his department, The Government are convinced that
considerable expansion is not only possible but desirable ; but as it
takes time to train men and build hospitals the expansion must be
gradual. The Veterinary Adviser has stated that only eleven men
graduated from the Veterinary College during the year and he cal-
culates that even on the assumption that only twelve new veterinary
dispensaries should be opened each year the number of men turned
out by the college during the year 1926-27 is six short of the
normal requirements of the department. He states that the reason
for a shortage of students at the college is that the number of stipends
was reduced from 40 to 15 in each class with effect from the year
1923. In order that there may be a sufficiency of trained recruits
to the department it is necessary that as many men as possible
should seek training at the college and with a view to effect this the
Government are considering the question of increasing the number of
stipends.
5. The Veterinary Adviser has also stated that owing to the
inadequacy of the sanctioned leave reserve in the department it
was possible to depute only four veterinary assistant surgeons to
attend the post-graduate course which is held at the college each
year. Proposals to increase the reserve staff are at present under
consideration.
6. The Veterinary Adviser is of the opinion that it will be
necessary once again to introduce the grade of inspectors in the
department. Whatever inherent advantages there may be in such a
system it would not be practicable to reappoint these inspectors at
present. The former inspectors are now veterinary assistant surgeons
in the selection grade and most of them are in charge of veterinary
hospitals and dispensaries. If they were to be taken off this duty
and be made purely inspecting officers as they were before, certain
hospitals and dispensaries would have to be closed. Further Govern-
ment are not of the opinion that it has been demonstrated that circle
officers cannot inspect the various veterinary assistants' work
