STATEMENT NO. XI.—MANUFACTURES AND LUNATICS' LABOUR.
45. Lahore.— The profit amounted to Rs. 2,740-8-1, compared with
Rs. 2,810-9-10 in 1897, being a falling-off of Rs. 70-1-9. The Superintendent
reports that every care is taken to employ the patients on healthy work, and as
profitably as possible. The value of garden produce sold to the public was
Rs. 175, and to the Asylum Rs. 602. The average number of lunatics employed
on manufactures was 111.21 males and 20.46 females ; total 131.67.
46. Delhi.—The profit on the year's work was Rs. 1,570-14-11, com-
pared with Rs. 1,304-4-2 in 1897, being an increase of Rs. 266-10-9. The
manufacture of munj matting alone gave a profit of Rs. 444-2-5. The Asylum
garden was worked satisfactorily. There were, on an average, 30.93 male and
3.61 female lunatics employed on manufactures and in the garden.
BUILDINGS.
47. As was the case in 1897, very little was done to either of the Asylum
buildings, as a new Central Asylum is in course of construction at Lahore.
ESTABLISHMENT.
48. The establishments of both Asylums worked well, on the whole, to
which fact the few escapes may be attributed. Owing to the demolition of parts
of the Lahore Asylum, it was necessary to entertain six extra warders.
I have the honor to be,
Sir,
Your most obedient servant,
A. DEANE, M.D., COL., I.M.S.,
Offg. Inspector-General of Civil Hospitals, Punjab.
