(d) There were 40 deaths during the year under review against 19 in 1930.
This gives a death rate of 7*11 on the daily average strength.
There were 16 deaths from tuberculosis and 8 from dysentery, the two chief
causes of mortality in Indian Mental Hospitals.

up-keep of the Mental Hospital amounted to Rs. 120,
120-12-9 against Rs. 231, 669-13-9 in 1930. The average
cost per head wad Rs. 213-S-4 against Rs. 477-5-8 in 1930.
The decrease is due to—
(i) Lower expenditure under Public Works Department charges.
(U) General fall in the price of food-stuffs.
The total expenditure for the up-keep, therefore, of the Mental Hospital for the
year 1931, excluding Rs. 2,537-0-0 for abnormal Public Works Department original
works, amounted to Rs. 1,17,583-12-9 against Rs. 1,08,691-13-1 in 3 930 or an average
cost per head Rs. 209-0-2 against Rs. 223-15-4 in 19o0.
Excluding Public Works Department charges, repairs and maintenance charges
rates, and taxes, receipts from paying patients and profits on manufactures, the
average cost per inmate works out to Rs. 166-10-11 against Rs. 181-4-5 in 1930.
The receipts from paying patients amounted to Rs. 1,005-0-0 against Rs. 697-8-0 in
1930.
(b) The profit in the manufactory department was Rs. 6,523-2-9 against
Rs. 6,8^7-12-11 in the previous year or an average of Rs. 99*7-11 per head of in-
mate employed on manufactures against Rs. 104-0-11. The fall was due to the lower
value of the manufactured goods.
The principal item of expenditure was the cost of " Diet " which amounted to
Rs. 48,807-10-9 against Rs, 49,070-3-6 in 1030. The average cost per head was
Rs. 86-12-1 against Rs. 101-1-9 in 1930.

17. With the increase in the population of the hospital the work of the staff has
also increased very considerably, so much so that the time
1,1

ua8 come £ 0 consider an increase in the staff. The most
urgent addition is the appointment of a whole-time medical superintendent, as the
Civil Surgeon has not the time at his disposal to give to this important institution. It
is impossible for him to give that individual attention to patients which is necessary
and to carry out the revision of cases systematically.
A female head keeper is also necessary to assist the matron in the supervision of
the female section. Quarters are available for a head keeper but, so far, the appoint-
ment has ramained vacant.
In the office an additional hand is required to assist with the ever-increasing cor-
respondence.
Lieut.-Colonel W. D. Ritchie, I.M.S , who has been in medical charge of the
Mental Hospital for many years, and who is largely responsible for bringing the hospi-
tal to its present high standard of efficiency, is shortly retiring and the administration
is greatly indebted to him for the able manner in which he has always organised and
managed the institution.
My acknowledgments are also due to Khan Sahib Dr. Mokhtar Hussain for his
continued efficient service.
