Four ankylostoma or trichocephalus worms were found this year in the stools
of a lunatic received from the Amraoti District. Among new admissions the
ankylo (ova) were found in 21 lunatics received from Wardha, Raipur, Mandla,
Neemuch, Nagpur, Amraoti and Balaghat. Ascaris infection was found in
13 cases received from Raipur, Port Blair, Akola, Indore, Buldana, Yeotmal and
Mandla. Trichuris was found in 6 cases received from Drug, Wardha, Akola
and Nagpur. The number of stools examined was 398 against 384 last year.
6. Plague has been prevalent in the area surrounding the Asylum since
the last quarter of the year, but the Asylum has escaped the infection till now.
7. The ratio of deaths per cent of average strength amongst the inmates
of the Asylum in 1919 was 13.62 against 8.50 last year. The death rate per

Types of insanity.
10. Mania, as usual, under its various sub-heads, was the commonest type
of insanity. Under this head 72 patients or 71.28 per
cent of total admission (excluding observation cases)
were admitted against 57 or 77 per cent in the previous year. The number of
recoveries from this type was 27 and 3 improved. Next comes Melancholia
with 17 admissions or 16.83 per cent,against 14 or 19 per cent in the previous
year. Recoveries from this type were 3 against 4 in 1918. Under Postfebrile
insanity admissions were 6 or 5.94 per cent against nil in 1918.
STATEMENT VII.
Aetiological factors and
associated conditions.
11. The principal predisposing and exciting causes
of the cases admitted were :—
—
Mental stress ... ... ...
Physiological defects ... ...

and so many of them engaged in some form of employment. The management appears to
me to be excellent and to reflect great credit on all concerned. I too think that Rao Sahib
Kashinath Gopal has thoroughly deserved the title. "
18. Rao Sahib Kashinath Gopal has continued to devote the same amount
of care and attention to the management of the Asylum. Mrs. Brodie has
worked well as matron and Head Clerk Narayan Madho has kept the accounts
so carefully that for three years in succession the Auditor's review showed
a complete absence of errors.
Lieut.-Colonel Buchanan, the Superintendent, has managed this important
charge with his usual zeal and energy, and the result in a year of great stress
and many difficulties is satisfactory.
