were found to be successful, in Goálpára the successful percentage by licensed men
was 94.57, whereas in Nowgong and Gáro Hills the percentages of primary cases found
to be successful were respectively 69.53 and 62.85. In all districts a large number of
the vaccinations done in October and November were unsuccessful. As many of these
persons were successfully vaccinated later in the season in some cases the first unsuc-
cessful operations, done in the beginning of the season, seem to have been excluded
from the tables, while in other cases they seem to have been included.
The number of persons successfully vaccinated per 1,000 of population for the
province as a whole was 28.33, the ratio varying from 17.17 in the Khási and Jaintia
Hills to 65.40 in the Nága Hills. The average annual number successfully vaccinated
per 1,000 of population during the previous five years was 26.03.
