Speaking, from personal experience extending over six years in other
provinces, of all these methods of vaccination, I have no hesitation in pro-
nouncing very decidedly in favour of vaccination direct from the calf. 1 see
it stated in previous reports of this Department that lymph " when properly
procured by the arm-to-arm process and from healthy children, is of equal
value to the lymph procured direct from calves." 1 am not prepared to admit
this, but even supposing it to be the case, the difficulty is always to procure
healthy subjects. Invariably the children used as vaccinifers are low caste
and unhealthy. No woman of the well-to-do classes will allow her child to
be used as a vaccinifer. On the other hand, the advantages of vaccination
direct from the calf are distinct, and obviously superior to any other kind
of lymph. In the first place, the lymph is pure, the only danger being from
tuberculosis which, however, is not a common disease among cattle in this
country. Secondly, this source of supply is practically inexhaustible, and
thirdly, the poorer people are not harassed to supply their babies as vaccinifers,
which is an important consideration. The advantages of direct calf-vaccina-
tion are so great, that it is fast gaining a strong foothold in the public estima-
tion. Three years ago when I was officiating as Sanitary Commissioner of
these Provinces, and suggested this idea for mufassal towns and rural areas,
there was immediately a storm of opposition; religious prejudices were put
forward, and the impossibility of inducing the people to give up their calves
