REPORT ON THE CIVIL VETERINARY DEPT., BURMA,
Inspector. During the year I discussed this. latter subject with the
Development Commissioner and it was agreed that the Senior Veterinary
Assistant in each district should be supplied with an inoculation chest.
The District Councils are now being asked to provide for these. The
Deputy Commissioner, Mergui, complains that he has experienced
difficulty in checking the work of Veterinary Assistants and recommends
the introduction of a register similar to the vaccination register so that
all cases attended by Veterinary Assistants can be checked by touring
officers. This matter is being looked into. The old evil of cattle owners
selling the hides and flesh of diseased cattle is again referred to this year
by the Deputy Commissioner, Amherst District. He states : " Such
instances though rare always created widespread disease." This is an
offence which requires exemplary punishment. In Arakan the Deputy
Commissioner of Akyab states that difficulties have been experienced in
getting the people to inoculate at newly infected places and he mentions
that it is particularly difficult to get Chittagonians to realize the value of
inoculation. In this division the real evil seems to be that the carcases
of diseased animals instead of being buried are flung into the tidal
creeks thus helping to spread the disease. Another difficulty mentioned
by the Deputy Commissioner is the extreme reluctance of headmen to
punish those who disregard the rules and he states that he is at present
dealing with a number of headmen whose failure to enforce the rules
has caused outbreaks to assume far more serious proportions than they
need have done and that he is making it widely known that headmen
who show zeal in enforcing the rules will be granted liberal money
rewards. A serious obstacle to the stamping out of disease and one
which is general to nearly all Lower Burma districts is the communal
grazing of cattle on unfenced grazing grounds.
Despite these drawbacks there is good reason to believe that both in
the matter of inoculation and of the enforcement of the segregation rules
the education of the people is progressing.
19. Registration.—Any
attempt to stamp out disease whether of
animals or humans is of necessity accompanied by an accurate system of
statistics. The registration of the deaths of all cattle is compulsory
under the Village Act. Owners of cattle are supposed to report to the
headmen of their village but from various districts come reports that
they are often unwilling to do so. The headman keeps the register in
counterfoil and submits his report to the Township Officer who compiles
a return for his township and forwards this to the Deputy Commissioner.
The latter submits a monthly return to this office where the returns
are consolidated into an annual statement. It is impossible to say to
what extent these returns are accurate or not. One misconception should
be removed. Some Deputy Commissioners apparently think that the
figures shown by the Veterinary Assistants should check with those of
the Township
Officers. Veterinary Assistants, however, are not

13
responsible for mortality returns but only for the " report of outbreak "
returns in which the figures for disease refer only to the particular
outbreak. The headman's figures give the total mortality.
20. Expansion of the Department.—During
the year the department
again suffered from the shortage of staff mentioned in last year's report.
The primary necessity is to recruit two Superintendents for field work
to be placed in charge of the South-Eastern and South-Western Circles.
I consider that this is a necessity which should take precedence of
research. Important as research is it is still more urgent and important
to have a supervising staff to apply such measures as we already possess
for the suppression of disease. There are indications that the department
wants still further strengthening along the eastern frontier on which side
it is believed a good deal of our cattle disease comes in. This matter
is being looked into. It is hoped that the necessary superior staff may
be obtained with as little delay as possible. Attempts made during the
year to obtain two research officers have not so far been successful.
21. Recommendations.—It
is satisfactory to report that with very few
exceptions the work and conduct of Inspectors and Assistants continue
to be favourably reported on by the Deputy Commissioners. The following
are singled for mention on account of particularly good work done during
the year : U Saw Hla U, Veterinary Inspector, Meiktila, Central Circle;
U Aung Tun U, Veterinary Inspector, Akyab, and U Saw U, Veterinary
Assistant, Sandoway, Arakan Sub-Circle ; U Po Aung, Veterinary
Inspector, Henzada, U Hla Gyaw, Veterinary Assistant, Bassein, South-
western Circle ; U Aung Thein, U Kauk, U On Pe, Veterinary Assistants
of Kyaikkhami, Kyaikto and Thatôn, South-Eastern Circle ; U Shwe
Doke, Veterinary Inspector, Sagaing, U Maung Maung, Veterinary
Inspector, Shwebo, U Kyi Pe, Veterinary Inspector, Mônywa, U Po
Lwin, Veterinary Assistant, Katha, Lazun Tanaw, Veterinary Assistant,
Sinlumkaba, U Po Chit, Veterinary Assistant, Mogaung, U Ba Kyu,
Veterinary Assistant, Kawlin, U Zin, Veterinary Assistant, Wetlet, U
Shwe Po Yin, Veterinary Assistant, Amarapura, U San Hla, Flying
Column Veterinary Assistant, Mandalay.
The department is again
indebted to many district officials for the energetic action taken by them
in connection with outbreaks of cattle disease and for their supervision
of the assistant staff. I desire also to make acknowledgments to the
superior staff of the Veterinary Department proper, Messrs. Idle, Rippon,
and U Pe Than, for the loyal help and support given by them in the
work of the department during the year.
