is ascribed to these instructions. It is disappointing to find that Magistrates still
disregard the standing orders as regards filling up the history sheets and listing the
private property of the lunatics sent to the asylum. Special instructions on the
subject were issued last year.
5. Sir Benjamin Robertson observes with satisfaction that proper economy,
compatible with the comfort and well-being of the inmates, was observed in the
management of the asylum during the triennium. Notwithstanding the rise in
prices due to the war and increased establishment charges, the average cost per
lunatic (excluding Public Works Department charges) stood at Rs. 111-12-4 in
1915, at Rs. 126-5-6 in 1916, and at Rs. 118-15-5 in the year 1917. These
compare favourably with the corresponding figure of Rs. 128-11-3 for the last of
the three preceding years.
6. The official visitors continued to evince interest in the management of the
asylum. The Chief Commissioner has under consideration the question of
appointing non-official visitors, with a view to enlisting the interest of the public
in the welfare of the institution. Sir Benjamin Robertson notices with satisfaction
the encomium passed by the Inspector-General of Civil Hospitals on the work of
Lieut.-Col., P. F. Chapman, I.M.S., during the period of his superintendence of
the asylum. His thanks are also due to Rao Sahib K. G. Paonaskar, the Deputy
Superintendent, whose meritorious services for many years were recognised by
the conferral on him of the title of Rao Sahib in January 1917.
ORDER : — Ordered that a copy of this resolution be submitted to the Govern-
ment of India in the Home Department, that a copy be forwarded to the Inspector-
General of Civil Hospitals, Central Provinces, for information and that it be
published in the Supplement to the Central Provinces Gazette.

7. A good deal of attention has been given in recent years to the prevalence
of intestinal parasites in asylums and other institutions in India; a table showing
the result of the regular examinations is given below for a number of years :—

It will be seen that the number of cases infected is very much less now than
it was when special attention was first drawn to the matter, but the infection is in
reality very much less than is represented by the figures, because although
several are still shown as infected with the ova of the hook-worm, no adult worms
have been actually found during the past four years. Among the new admissions
in 1917 the hook-worm infection was 19.74 per cent and of trichuris 22.38 per
cent against 9.52 and 17.86 respectively in 1916, so with a constant supply of
fresh cases it is necessary to be constantly on the look-out for these worms
or their ova.
8. The ratio of deaths per cent of average strength amongst the inmates
of the asylum in 1917 was 10.08 against 10.99 last year. The death-rate per
cent for 1917 in other Provinces was 12.31 in the Punjab, 11.68 in Bihar and
Orissa, 10.1 in Bombay, 9.27 in the United Provinces, 9.04 in Madras, 7.91 in
Bengal, 6.78 in Burma, and 5.56 in Assam.
STATEMENT II —
Criminal lunatics.
9. On the 1st January 1915 there were 80 criminal lunatics, 68 were
admitted during the three years under report, making a
total of 148. Of these, 22 were discharged (8 transferred
to non-criminal list, 5 to jails, 6 discharged and 3 escaped )
and 24 died, leaving a balance of 102 at the close of the year 1917.
4
STATEMENT III—
Religion and sex.
10. Hindus formed 82.20 per cent of the total admissions during the
triennium. Mahomedans were 14.39 per cent. Anglo-
Indians, Indians and other castes were 1.14, 1.89 and 0.38
respectively. The percentage of male and female
admissions to the total admitted was 85.23 and 14.77 respectively against 78.95
and 21.05 in the preceding triennium.
STATEMENT IV—
Previous occupation.
11. Beggars, labourers, private servants, cultivators, shop-keepers, Gov-
ernment servants and artisans contributed the largest
number of admissions. In 14 cases (5 in 1915, 2 in 1916
and
7
in
1917)
the previous occupation could not be
traced. There were only 3 such cases in the preceding triennium. There were
6 sepoys sent back from active service who were admitted. These are included
under Government servants. Of these, 2 died, 2 were discharged cured and 2 still
remain.
STATEMENT V—
Age on admission.
12. As in the previous triennium the largest number of those admitted were
between the ages of 20 to 40. As previously explained,
this is the period of greatest stress and pressure.
STATEMENT VI—
Types of insanity.
13. Mania, as usual, heads the list of admissions, contributing 72.73 per cent
(excluding observation cases). Melancholia comes next
with 15.15, dementia with 6.06, errors of development
with 4.92 and delusional insanity with 1.14.
STATEMENT VII—
Ætiological
factors and
associated conditions.
14. The principal predisposing and exciting causes
of insanity in those admitted during the triennium were :—
Heredity ... ...
Toxic
...
...
Mental instability ...
Critical period ... ...
Mental stress ... ...
Predisposing.

The rest were from other groups. In 85 cases against 98 in the previous
triennium no definite causes could be ascertained, the history sheets being
defective. It was expressed in the report for the preceding triennium that confining
magistrates should exercise more care and trouble in filling up the history sheets
of lunatics, and the Hon'ble the Chief Commissioner directed that magis-
trates and the police should give the matter their careful attention. The
difficulty in grouping the cases for want of information in the medical history
sheet still exists and in a number of cases the causes had to be ascertained from
the relatives and friends of the patients after their admission.
STATEMENT VIII—
Finance.
15. A few figures to show at a glance the increase and decrease in Receipts
and Expenditure for each year during the past two trienniums
are given below and, for facility of comparison, figures under
1,000 or in some cases under 100 are omitted :—
