It .will be seen that the total estimated number of infants, under one year
available for vaccination was 2,460,228, of whom 498,979, or 202.81 per thou-
sand, were successfully vaccinated, against 416,307, or 169.19 in 1895-96. This
is satisfactory so far as it goes, but I doubt the accuracy of the figures
supplied when there are such extreme differences as between 876.89 per mille
in Darjeeling and 37.49 in Gaya. One can only conclude from such varia-
tions that the proportion of infants protected is either overstated or understated
in many districts. The increase during the year under report is shown to have
taken place in every district, except Angul and Khondmals, the Political States
of Chota Nagpur, Hazaribagh, Balasore, Saran, Singhbhum, Noakhali, Tippera,
