STATEMENT NO. VIII.
Finance.
12. The total amount spent for the upkeep of the
Mental Hospital was Rs. 1,26,756-11-3
against Rs. 1,13,140-11-7 last year.
The increase in expenditure is mainly due to the fact
that certain new buildings have been constructed by the
Public Works Department amounting to Rs. 23,375-10-0.
Excluding this amount and other book adjustments the
expenditure was Rs. 1,03,261-10-3 against Rs. 1,05,679-
9-1 last year. Receipts from paying patients amounted
to Rs. 10,118-6-9 against Rs. 11,555-0-4 and the receipts
from other sources Rs. 2,192-15-3 against Rs. 2,464-15-3.
The average cost of " Diet and clothing " per patient
was Rs. 106-13-0 against Rs. 101 last year. The increase
is due to the issue of extra diets to invalids and debilitated
patients.
STATEMENT No. IX.
Establishment.
13. A new appointment of Alienist has been created
from 9th October 1928, replacing the
Deputy Superintendent,
otherwise
there was no change.
Acting on proposals submitted regarding the neces-
sity for eliminating focal sepsis as a possible cause of
mental trouble, Government sanctioned the appointment
of a dental surgeon and a specialist in Ear, Nose and
5
Throat work. They started work at the beginning of
May.
In the dental department card registers have been
introduced. It is intended that these will form a dental
history of patients from the time of admission as is done
in recruits for the Army, and that periodical inspections
of each patient will be made to maintain as far as possible
a healthy condition of the mouth.
STATEMENT NO. X.
Profit and loss.
14. Profits during the year were Rs. 4,528-2-0
against Rs. 5,009-6-3 last year, the
decrease is due to the failure of the
grass crop and garden produce owing to shortage of rain
at the proper season.
Amusements.
15. These were provided in the shape of in and
out-door games, music by gramo-
phones and special feasts during the
Hindu, Mohammedan and Christian festivals.
Buildings.
16. As previously mentioned, construction of one
dormitory for 20 patients and 2
blocks for 4 paying patients was
undertaken by the Public Works Department and these
were nearly completed towards the end of the year, so
that at the beginning of the year 1929 the available
accommodation will be for 336 males and 126 females.
General remarks.
17. A proportion of the inmates in the hospital is
literate and arrangements are being
made to establish a library for them.
An appeal through newspapers to the general public to
contribute towards it is being made.
Staff.
18. All members of the staff did their work satis-
factorily, and a blank audit speaks
well for an institution of this des-
cription.
19. As Superintendent of the Mental Hospital Lieut.-
Colonel W. Tarr, I.M.S., carried out his duties with
marked zeal and efficiency.
