Table XIV.
40. This is the first year in which Cattle Shows, as sanctioned by Govern-
ment in their Revenue Department Order No. 5717,
dated 8th May 1917, were organised. Owing to
severity of plague in Gujarat all the shows proposed to be held in that tract had
to be abandoned but a satisfactory start has been made in the Deccan. Two shows
were held in the Satara District at Gondavle Budruk and Mhaswad in the Man
Taluka. Six shows were held in the Sholapur District at Mangewadi, Wadhegaon,
Rajuri, Waki, Mahud Budruk, and Lotewadi in the Sangola Taluka. It is too
early to say what the results may be, but they certainly excited a considerable
amount of local interest and keenness on the part of exhibitors. On the whole
the commencement must be regarded as very satisfactory. The number of shows
will gradually be increased in suitable cattle breeding areas according as ex-
periment proves a success.
IV.—SUBORDINATE ESTABLISHMENT.
Table VII.
41. The strength of the subordinate staff at the
close of the year was—
Veterinary Inspectors ... ...
Veterinary Assistants. ... ...
5
84
There were 8 vacancies at the end of the year and 5 men were on mili-
tary duty. The department was thus shorthanded by 13 men.
As in previous years four Inspectors were employed in charge of
district work and one in charge of the Northcote Cattle Farm. The work of
Veterinary Inspector is increasing. Veterinary Inspectors Marathe and Maniar
did well in connection with the new schemes for premium bulls and village
shows, Veterinary Inspector Nagarseth has as usual carried out the responsible
work at the Northcote Cattle Farm, Chharodi, intelligently and efficiently. All
the Veterinary Inspectors worked zealously and on the whole intelligently.
42. The members of the subordinate Veterinary staff have worked well.
The reserves have been again very usefully employed in connection with out-
breaks of contagious diseases.
The following Veterinary Assistants have done commendable work during
the year:—
D. B. Mamtora (Ahmedabad), M. A. Merchant (Surat), B. B. Patel
(Bulsar), C. N. Desai (Broach), J. G. Kulkarni (Hubli), M. G. Kulkarni (Bel-
gaum), A. B. Gadagkar (Dharwar), M. K. Garudachar (Sirsi), F. Gracias
(Poona Agriculture Veterinary Hospital), H. B. Shirsathe (Ahmednagar), M. B.
Kulkarni (Reserve) and K. B. Nair (Reserve).
V.—EXPENDITURE OF THE DEPARTMENT.
Table XIV-A.
43. The expenditure of the department is shown in Table XIV-A from
information furnished by the Accountant General.
The orders of Government in respect of economy have
been strictly observed.
VI.—GENERAL REMARKS.
44. Lieut.-Colonel. Walker states :—
" The work is developing in every direction and the need of more
superior staff is becoming an urgent matter. Proposals have been submitted
for an increase and for a simultaneous scheme of decentralization, the necessity
of which has been previously pointed out.
"I wish to testify to my appreciation of the good work done by
Mr. J. D. Buxy, the Deputy Superintendent, during the year. He has been of
great assistance to me.
" The members of the clerical staff have also worked zealously."
G. TAYLOR,
Officiating Superintendent, C. V. D.,

General Remarks.
13. The difficulties of the administration of the Veterinary Department
in Sind, Baluchistan and Rajputana by a single officer
have been recognised by the authorities in each

and other proposals were referred to Government in January last for their
consideration.
