APPENDIX.
REPORT OF THE VETERINARY ADMINISTRATION OF THE MANIPUR STATE FOR
THE YEAR 1922-23.
1. Personnel.—Babu Krishna Narain, Veterinary Assistant, hell charge of the department
throughout the year.
2. Tours.—The Veterinary Assistant was on tour for 155 days, travelling 1,913 miles. He visited
334 villages as against 291 in the previous year.
3. Contagious diseases—Equines.—(a) Ten deaths from Anthrax were reported from one
village. In the previous year three deaths were reported from three different villages.
(b) Surra broke out in six places including Imphal. It was first notice 1 at Moirang where it
had also broken out in the previous year. Thirty-seven ponies as against 11 in the previous year
were attacked, most of them were destroyed, the rest dying in the natural course of the disease.
In a few cases the owners objected to killing their animals themselves. In all the cases the diagnosis
was confirmed microscopically.
Bovines.—(a) Foot-and-mouth disease was reported from 106 places of which 49 were timely
visited by the Veterinary Assistant. The 234 deaths recorded were among calves and old animals.
(6) Twenty-three deaths, all among calves—from Black quarter were reported from four villages as
against 12 from five villages in the previous year.
(c) Two deaths from Anthrax as against the same number in the previous year were reported
from Imphal. Prompt inoculation in the infected areas prevented the spread of the disease.
(d) The 36 deaths recorded by the Veterinary Assistant while on tour were from other
contagious diseases. Accurate diagnosis was not possible.
Other animals.—Eleven deaths among dogs from Rabies as against five in the previous year were
reported. In all the cases the diagnosis was confirmed by the Pasteur Institute, Shillong.
4. Preventive inoculation.—Inoculation
was undertaken in throe outbreaks of Anthrax and
100 animals were inoculated. It is satisfactory to note that after this preventive measure had been
taken, there was no death from this disease either among the inoculated or among the uniaoculated
animals.
During the year 3,750 c c. of Anthrax serum was procured and 4,000 c. caused. The stock held
at the end of the year was 4,750 c. c. There being no Rinderpest during the year the 3,000 c. c. of
Anti-Rinderpest serum held in stock on 1st April 192:2, were not spent. The 2,000 c. c. of Hæmorr-
hagic Septicæmia serum being of very old stock were discarded.
5. In-palient.—Twenty-two
in-patients were treated as against twenty nine in the previous year.
6. Out'palient.—The number of out-patients was 3,683 as against 2,401 in the previous year.
7. Operations.—Forty-four major and 219 minor operations were performed during the year as
against 86 major and 161 minor in the previous year.
8. During the year strict measures were taken to ensure prompt report of cattle diseases from the
villagers. In some cases the choukidars failing to report in proper time were fined.
9. Babu Krishna Narain, Veterinary Assistant, worked satisfactorily during the year. He reports
that the Compounder Rajdhon Singh gave him satisfaction.

Orders by the Governor and the Minister of Local Self-
Government.
Resolution on the Veterinary Report for the year 1922.
Extract from the Proceedings of the Government of Assam in the General and
Judicial Department, No. 4506G.J., dated the 21st August 1923.
READ—
The Report of the Superintendent, Civil Veterinary Department, Assam, for the year 1922-23 and
the review thereon of the Director of Land Records and Agriculture, Assam,
RESOLUTION.
THE results of the year's work in the Veterinary Department were very satisfac-
tory.
There was a very welcome decline in the number of epidemic outbreaks and in
the mortality among cattle. The number of deaths from contagious diseases fell from
30,594 to 25,309, the lowest total on record since 1918-19. The Veterinary staff
performed inoculations in 21,996 cases, and only 153 of the animals inoculated died,
a very creditable result.
The total number of Veterinary Assistants rose from 48 to 50 during the year.
Pour new appointments were made, but one officer resigned and the Government
dispensed with the services of another. The six stipendiary students at the Belgachia
Veterinary College, Bengal, all made satisfactory progress and passed their annual
examinations.
The Government of Assam are pleased to learn that the importance of Veterinary
work is becoming more fully appreciated and that some Local Boards are anxious to
increase their staff.
2. The number of animals which were sent to the hospitals on account of ill-treat-
ment or cruelty rose slightly to 48. The Government hope that in the areas in which
the Cruelty to Animals Act is in force, officers will make full use of their powers to
punish persons guilty of offences under the Act.
3. The expenditure of the Department rose from Rs. 1,24,930 to Rs. 1,43,323,
of which Rs. 80,123 were debited to provincial revenues and Rs. 63,197 met from
local funds, as compared with Rs. 64,229 and Rs. 60,701 in 1921-22. The increase
of Rs. 15,897 in the expenditure from provincial revenues was largely due to the
fact that the annual contribution of Rs. 10,000 to Bengal on account of the Belga-
chia College was not shown in last year's report. There was also an increase of
Rs. 4,933 under the head Superintendence, which was mainly due to the promotion
of Mr. Harris to the Selection grade.
4. Mr. Harris was in charge of the Department for over 8 months of the year,
and Babu G. P. Sen officiated as Superintendent for the rest of the year. The
thanks of Government are due to these officers for their efficient administration. The
Governor and his Minister have noted the names of the officers who have been
commended in the Report for good work.
ORDERED that a copy of the Resolution be published in the Assam Gazette.
By order of the Government of Assam,
G. E. SOAMES,
Second Secretary to the Government of Assam.

SUPERINTENDENT, CIVIL VETERINARY DEPARTMENT, ASSAM,
To
THE SECOND SECRETARY TO THE GOVERNMENT OF ASSAM.
Dated Gauhati, the 16th June 1924.
SIR,
I HAVE the honour to submit herewith the Annual Administration Report
of the Civil Veterinary Department, Assam, for the year 1923-24, together with a
copy of the Report on the Veterinary Administration of the Manipur State, for the
year ending the 31st March 1924.
Your obedient servant,
W. HARRIS,
Superintendent, Civil Veterinary Department, Assam.
REPORT
OF THE
CIVIL VETERINARY DEPARTMENT, ASSAM,
FOR THE YEAR
1923-24.
PREFACE.—GENERAL ADMINISTRATION.
During the year under report I resumed charge of the post of Superintendent,
Civil Veterinary Department, Assam, on expiry of combined leave for 9 months, on
20th December 1923. During my absence Babu Guru Prasanna Sen, G.V.B.C,
Deputy Superintendent, acted as Officiating Superintendent.
2. I was on tour for 48 days and travelled 148 miles by road and 2,583 miles
by rail.
3. The following hospitals and dispensaries were inspected by me during the
year:—
Silchar, Sylhet, Tezpur, Dibrugarh, Tinsukia and Shillong. The work of the
three Veterinary Inspectors was also inspected by me.
4. I attended the Bengal Veterinary College as President of the Board of
Examiners.
5. The Department has been separated from that of the Agriculture and became
a separate Department with effect from 20th December 1923.
6. Babu Guru Prasanna Sen was on tour for 123 days and travelled 2,272 miles
by rail, 824 miles by steamer and 652 miles by road.
7. The following dispensaries and Assistants were inspected by him:—
Shillong twice, Silchar, Narsingpur, Hailakandi, Sylhet, Karimganj, Pathar-
kandi, Maulvi-Bazar, Kulaura, Habiganj, Sunamganj, Jagannathpur, Kohima,
Dhubri, Goalpara, Bilashipara, Abhoyapuri, Behali, Sibsagar, Mariani, Golaghat
Nazira, North Lakhimpur and Dhakuakhana once each.
The work of the Veterinary Inspectors, Silchar and Gauhati, was inspected by
mm.
8. The post of Deputy Superintendent of this Department has been kept in
abeyance with effect from 20th December 1923.
Babu Guru Prasanna Sen, has reverted to his substantive appointment as
Veterinary Inspector, Gauhati Circle, with effect from 20th December 1923. He has
been on leave since the date of his reversion.
9. In the Laboratory at headquarters 466 specimens were examined of which
58 were diagnosed as Anthrax, 21 Hæmorrhagic Septicæmia and 9 Surra. In the
previous year 536 specimens were received.

12. There was no private student from this Province reading in the College
during the year under report.
18. The number of graduates allotted to this Province was one but he did not
actually join the Department till after the close of the year.
14. No Veterinary Assistants were sent to the Bengal Veterinary College during
this period for a Refresher Course.
PART II.—TREATMENT OF DISEASES.
15. Table II shows the number of deaths from contagious diseases reported
during the year. Reports have been received from all the districts except Lushai
Hills. The Superintendent, Lushai Hills could not supply any information owing to
the absence of the Veterinary Assistant on leave.

59. Kumree during the past year—a paralysis chiefly occurring in the hind
quarters of horses—again caused considerable loss amongst valuable animals. During
my absence on leave a Veterinary Officer from the R. A. V. C. was invited here
by the local Military authorities to investigate this disease. He saw several cases
and made post-mortem examinations but he was unable to throw any light on
the cause. In his report he supported my previous remarks that research work
should be taken up at once by the officers of the Imperial Laboratory and I
hope in the coming year this will be done and the disease studied in its local setting.
60. Anthrax has again been very prevalent in some areas and it is to be
regretted that there is no law to prevent the skinning of infected carcases and to
punish those who do so. In one instance Anthrax was found to have been imported
into a clean area by the use of unsterilised bone meal. It is very necessary that
all bone meal should be sterilised before being used as manure.
61. One hundred and twenty-nine deaths amongst cattle from suspected poi-
soning were reported by Veterinary Assistants against 102 cases in the previous
year. In 27 cases Arsenic was detected by the Chemical Examiner, Bengal.
62. During the year His Excellency the Governor of Assam visited the Veterinary
Dispensary at Mangaldai.
63. The Hon'ble Minister in charge of Local Self-Government inspected the
Gauhati Veterinary Hospital and Office.
64. The Director of Land Records and Agriculture inspected the following
Dispensaries:—
Gauhati, Silchar, Sylhet, Goalpara, Jorhat and Dibrugarh.
65. Although much of the touring and inspection work by the Inspectors had
to be curtailed owing to financial stringency their work has been carried out in
an efficient and satisfactory manner.
66. Office Staff.—Under
the supervision of the Head Clerk Babu Basanta
Kumar Chakrabarty the clerical staff have carried out their duties satisfactorily.
67. The Department is grateful to the District Officers and to the members
of the various Local Boards and Dispensary Committees who have taken an interest
in Veterinary work and the general welfare of cattle.

Superintendent, Civil Veterinary Department, Assam.
