The increase of dysentery cases in 1921 w T as due to its greater prevalence amongst
the FILTHY PATIENTS and to SITE OVER-CROWDING.
The percentage of new admissions with bad health was 2908, with indifferent
health 45*30 and with good health 25*64 against 2S\L2, 47*92, and 23*96, respectively,
in 1920. Amongst these 24 deaths, four cases admitted in bad health died within the
year, and within a period varying from two weeks to three months from the date of
admission to the asylum, one from senile decay, two from Status Epilepticus and two
from Septicaemia. It is noteworthy that no homicide or suicide occurred during the
year under report.

FINANCE.
12. Excluding receipts from paying patients and miscellaneous receipts which
are credited to Government, the total expenditure for
a emeu s
,
^e upkeep of the asylum amounted to Rs. 86,717-9-1
against Us. 1,12,138-12-10 in 1920. The average cost per head was Us. 2.13-4 3
against Rs. 281-5-6 in the previous year. The fall in expenditure was due to
less amount, incurred for Public Works Department charges. Excluding the
Public Works Department charges, repairs and maintenance charges, rates and
taxes, receipts from payiag patients and profits on manufactures, the average cost
per inmate works out to Rs. 155-6-5 against Ks. 161-15-5 in 1920. The profits
in the manufactory department were Ks. 10,027-14-0 against Ks. 10,575-2-11 in
1920 or an average of Ks. 75-4-2 per head of inmates employed on manufac-
tures. The cost of diet amounted to Ks. 42,645-1-2 against Ks. 42,976-15-5 in
1920. The average cost of diet per head was Ks. 99-15-4 against Rs. 107-13-2 in
1920. Notwithstanding an increase in the number of inmates the decrease in the
cost of diet was due to a liitle fall in the price of dietary.

molasses \gttr), tailoring, mat and basket making, daily
routine of systematic cleaning and disinfection of buildings and of clothing and cots,
cooking of food, cleaning of utensils, masonry works and carpentry. The females are
employed on paddy husking and other sundry works.
14. Including general wards, solitary cells, hospitals, tubercle wards and filthy
patients' ward, there was on the 1st January 1921
accommodation for 331 males and 97 females or a total
°f 42S. During the year under review, one pucca barrack with accommodation for
26 male patients was constructed. But the construction of above barrack caused the
dismantling of a portion of a female temporary barrack reducing the accommodation
"y 11. The total accommodation available at the end of the year 1921 was 443
(357 for males and 80 for females). The maximum number c mfined on anyone
^ght during the year was 440 (360 males and 86 females).
This statement does not shew the existing serious state of affairs. There is site
over-crowding, and if the present health of the inmates is to bo maintained, it is
essential to remove the females from the present overcrowded main enclosure. It is
to bo hoped that funds may bo found for the extension for female patients. The niaia
4
wall and one barrack is estimated to cost Rs. 69,796. A hospital ward for dysentery
cases is also urgently required. This disease is especially one that is prone to occur
amongst the insane.
15. Nightsoil is trenched in a selectel site on asylum land outside the stockade,
but infected stools are destroyed in an incinerator.
m^i
ta,, y and Hospital arrange- latrine parade in the garden continues. Water-supply
is good. Extra allowance of milk, rum, eggs and mustard
oil are given to the inmates in poor health and to Tubercular cases. There is ample
supply of fresh vegetables from the asylum garden. The clothing of inmates is
boiled and washed weekly.
16. The scale of pay was raised in 1020 but the difficulty of finding keepers and
keeping them in their appointments is still acute. The
a '
scale now is Rs. 15 to Rs. 18 whereas constables and
warders receive Rs. 16 to Rs. 20. I would recommend that their pay be raised to
this same level. The work is very trying and the hours are long.
17. During the year under report the asylum was visited once by His Excellency
the Governor of Assam, once by the Hon'ble Minister of
Inspection.
Education, once by the Hon'ble Judicial Member, twice
by the Inspector General of Civil Hospitals, Assam, and once by the Commissioner
of the Assam Valley Division. Twelve meetings were held by the visitors during the
year.
