ANNUAL REPORT OF THE CIVIL VETERINARY
DEPARTMENT, NORTH-WEST FRONTIER
PROVINCE FOR THE YEAR 1920-21.
PART I.—GENERAL ADMINISTRATION.
Officer in charge.
MR. J, S. GAREWAL remained in charge of the North-West Frontier Pro-
vince throughout the year along with
the North Punjab Circle. The separate
post of Superintendent, Civil Veterinary Department, North-West Frontier
Province, still remains unfilled.
Extent and duration of tour.
2. The Superintendent toured for 95 days in connection with the
North Punjab and 103 days in connec-
tion with the North-West Frontier Pro-
vince, travelling 1,880 miles by road and 5,555 by rail in the former circle and
2,152 by road and 9,155 by rail in the latter. His monthly average of touring
in both the circles comes to 18 days in the month.
Work performed on tour.
3. The Superintendent inspected the following Veterinary Hospitals in
the North-West Frontier
Province,
Circle:—Peshawar, Charsadda, Nowshera,
Swabi, Mardan, Dargai, Abbottabad, Haripur, Mansehra, Bannu, Serai
Naurang, Dera Ismail Khan, Tank, Kohat, Hangu, Parachinar and Alizai,
once or more than once. He also inspected the office of the Itinerating
Veterinary Assistant, Kurram Agency, and made surprise visits to Peshawar,
Mardan, Charsadda, Nowshera, Abbottabad, Mansehra, Bannu, Kohat and
Dera Ismail Khan Veterinary Hospitals. Surprise visits were made to see
how the work at different Veterinary Hospitals was being carried on. Patients
brought at the time of inspection were treated by the Superintendent and
the Veterinary Assistant in charge of the Veterinary Hospital, along with the
Veterinary Inspector of the circle, if present. Several operations were
performed in different hospitals and pathological specimens examined.
The following Tonga lines were inspected:—
(1) Havelian-Abbottabad.
(2) Abbottabad-Mansehra.
(3) Durgai-Chakdarra.
(4) Pabbi-Cherat.
(5) Darya Khan-Dera Ismail Khan.
(6) Dera Ismail Khan-Draban.
(7) Dera Ismail Khan-Pezu.
(8) Bannu-Kohat.
(9) Thal-Parachinar.
(10) Peshawar-Charsadda.
The Superintendent also inspected Tonga and Tumtum ponies working
on the road between Attock and Peshawar, Peshawar and Kohat, Pindi to
Kohat and Dera Ismail Khan to Tank.
Several cases were sent to
hospitals for treatment and suspected cases of glanders tested. During this
tour, cattle on the road and along side the road, in different villages, were
examined and outbreaks of contagious diseases were also detected in many
villages. Patients were treated and lectures were given to Zamindars about
cattle-breeding, horse-breeding, sheep-breeding, castration of sires totally unfit
for breeding purposes, inoculation, etc., etc.
The Superintendent attended and acted as a member of the Judging
Committee at the following Fairs:—
(1) Peshawar Horse Show and Cattle Fair.
(2) Bannu Horse Show and Cattle Fair.
(3) Kohat Horse Show and Cattle Fair.
(4) Haripur Cattle Fair held in April 1920.
(4)
to the Veterinary Assistant, Swabi, were lost in transit and did not reach
the destination, about which correspondence is still going on with the railway
authorities.
Foot-and-Mouth disease—Table II.
18. Appeared like last year in 5 Districts and one Agency of the
Province. 1,707 cases and 67 deaths
occurred against 17,629 cases and 157
deaths last year. All necessary measures to check this disease were adopted by
the staff available.
Black Quarters.—Table II.
19. Reported only from Hazara, 11 cases and 11 deaths occurred against
13 cases and 12 deaths last year.
Other contagious diseases.—Table II.
20. No case reported this year like
last year.
SECTION 1-C.—CONTAGIOUS DISEASES — OTHER ANIMALS.
Contagious Discases.—Table II.
21. The following diseases occurred amongst other animals during the
year under report:—

991 animals were attacked and 100 died this year against 6,238 animals
attacked and 328 deaths last year.
SECTION 2.-OTHER CONTAGIOUS DISEASES.
Treatment of diseases in villages while on tour.—
Table IV.
22. During the year under report 1,720 villages were visited and
8,412 animals treated against 1,682
villages and 25,703 animals treated last
year. The decrease in the number of
animals treated is due to the simple fact that there were not so many outbreaks
this year as the last, though more villages were visited by the staff. 3,285
animals were castrated against 2,283 last year.
PART III.—VETERINARY HOSPITALS.
Veterinary Hospitals.—Table V.
23. There were 19 Hospitals at work against 20 last year. The
Miranshah Hospital remained closed
during the year under report. 47,060
cases were treated in the hospitals against 44,140 last year. 4,169 cases which
could not be brought to the hospitals were supplied with medicine against
5,819 such eases last year. 926 castrations were performed against 530 last year
More hospitals are urgently required in the Province but expenditure
for building new hospitals is not required at present. The immediate necessity
is for an increased staff and if this is sanctioned it is probable that temporary
accommodation can be found. Several offers of accommodation for veterinary
hospitals have been received during the year and all that is required is Veteri-
nary Assistants to carry on the work. Twelve more Veterinary Assistants are
necessary and two more Veterinary Inspectors for the Frontier Province and
this will allow 10 more hospitals to be opened with two men in reserve.
Buildings.
24. The following additions and alterations were made in the
Veterinary Hospitals during the year
under report:—
Charsadda
Abbottalad
...
...
Compound wall removed back, making court-yard of the
Veterinary Assistant and compounders' quarters wider.
Open shed completed.
(6)
A scheme was put forward for buying 24 of the best rams and distributing them
among owners possessing flocks of good quantity in order to improve the local
breed but funds have so far not been available for carrying out the scheme.
Some fine Pusht-i-Kuh rams were seen at the Government Farm at
Tarnab. A number of these have been distributed by the Agricultural Officer
without reference to this Department. It is understood that they were all
distributed in the Peshawar District instead of in the Province generally to the
detriment of the other districts. It is suggested that in future the rams should
be distributed through the Veterinary Department.
SECTION 2.—EQUINES.
Number of stallions.—Table X.
29. At the close of the year there were 13 horses and 3 pony stallions
in the non-selected districts and agencies
of the Province against 13 horses and
4 pony stallions last year. One thorough-bred stallion was purchased from
Calcutta for the Peshawar District At the close of last year there were 17
donkey stallions. Four country-bred donkey stallions were purchased from the
Hissar Farm.
One Arab horse stallion and one country-bred donkey stallion died this
year while 2 donkey stallions were stolen by raiders from Serai Naurang. One
Arab pony stallion at Parachinar on account of his being unfit for breeding was
struck off the register.
Neither the horse stallion which died at Bannu nor the one taken away
by raiders from Kark, Kohat District, have yet been replaced. They will
be replaced as soon as funds are available. Money for the purchase of one
country-bred stallion for Dera Ismail Khan has recently been sanctioned, and
arrangements will be made next winter for the purchase of one of the best
stallions available in Dera Ghazi Khan, or other adjoining districts, where
stallions of the particular breed required can be bad at a reasonable price.
Services of stallions.—Table XI.
30. Fourteen horses and 4 pony stallions were actually employed at stud
against 14 horses and 5 ponies last year.
They covered 675 and 195 mares, res-
pectively, against 698 and 208 last year thus giving an average of 482 and 48.7
against 49.8 and 41.6, respectively, last year.
Nineteen donkey stallions remained at stud against 18 last year. They
covered 1,015 mares against 841 last year at an average of 53.4 against 46.7
last year.
Feed and keep of stallions.—Table XII.
31. The average cost of feed and keep, etc., of stallions is given in Table
No. XII. It amounted to Rs. 588-13-0
per horse, Rs. 551-7-2 per pony and
Rs. 440-11-2 per donkey against Rs. 690-6-5, Rs. 651-8-0 and Rs. 444 per horse,
pony and donkey stallion last year, respectively.
SECTION 3.-FAIRS AND SHOWS.
Fairs and Shows—Tables XIII and XIV.
32. The statistical information
regarding Fairs and Shows is given in
Tables XIII and XIV.
PART IV.—SUBORDINATE STAFF.
Numerical strength.—Table VII.
33. As shown in Table VII, the
number of subordinate Veterinary
staff working in the Circle was as

men might be available to be sent to the scene of outbreaks without leaving
the Veterinary Hospitals in charge of compounders.
I should like to emphasize again the importance of legislation to deal
with outbreaks of contagious disease. Though inoculation is growing in
popularity little can be done to check the spread of disease unless power is
given to prevent the movement of diseased or infected animals from place to
place.
The Superintendent wishes to express his thanks to District Officers for
the help given by them to him and the staff in carrying on the work.
