During the year under report, 89,609.25 grammes in bulk in metal tubes,
137,633 capillary tubes, 14 grammes of glycerine paste, and 4 grammes of lano-
linated paste, sufficient to vaccinate 2,378.308 persons, were issued, against
94,354.7 grammes in metal tubes, 173,317 capillary tubes and 6.11 grammes of
glycerine paste in 1919-20. Of the total quantity of lymph issued, 1,443 capillary
tubes and 126 grammes in bulk to the value of Rs. 131 were issued free of cost,
during the year, as compared with 724 tubes and 440 grammes in bulk to the
value of Rs. 282 in the preceding year.
All the 84 municipalities and 43 out of 50 notified areas were supplied
with lymph on payment Seven notified areas, viz., Aonla, Moghal Sarai,
Chunar Settlement, Badshahpur, Madhoganj, Auraiya and Pauri did not buy
lymph from the Dépôt, during the year. There was a gereral decrease in
the sale-proceeds of lymph supplied to the various local bodies, viz. a decrease
of Rs. 671 in the case of district boards, of Rs. 686 in the case of municipali-
ties and of Rs. 95 in the case of notified areas and cantonments during the
year. There was, however, an increase of Rs. 610 in the sale-proceeds of lymph
supplied to the Indian States. Lymph worth Rs. 2,064 was supplied to the
Military department in 1920-21, against an annual contract grant of Rs. 3,000,
resulting in a net profit of Rs. 936.
During the year under report, the total sale proceeds of lymph amounted to
Rs. 33,025 and that of miscellaneous articles to Rs. 4,119, making a total of
Rs. 37,144, as compared with Rs. 35,430 in the preceding year. The expenditure
on the Dépôt during the year increased from Rs. 31,547 in 1919-20 to Rs. 39,217
in 1920-21. The increase in the expenditure is accounted for by the general
increase in the price of calves, grain, and all commodities, as well as by an
increase in the pay of the Dépôt establishment, sanctioned by Government. It
would appear that during the year under report, the Dépôt was run at a loss, but
this loss is only apparent, as lymph worth about Rs. 7,634 is stocked for next year's
use.
During the year under report, 1,356,405 operations (1,257,009 primary and
99,396 re-vaccination) were performed with calf lymph, as against 1,424,062
(1,200,272 primary and 133,790 re-vaccination) in the preceding year.
