Annual Administration Report of the Civil Veterinary
Department, Ajmer-Merwara (British Rajputana),
for the official year 1916=17.
GENERAL ADMINISTRATION.
Mr. J. G. Cattell held charge of the office of the Superintendent, Civil
Veterinary Department, Sind, Baluchistan and Rajputana, throughout the year
with the exception of 16 days in the beginning of April 1916 when he was on
privilege leave and Khan Sahib S. G. Haji, Deputy Superintendent, Civil
Veterinary Department, Sind, acted as Superintendent in addition to his own
duties.
Owing to his time being fully taken up in Sind and Baluchistan Mr.
Cattell was unable to tour in Rajputana during the year.
I.—VETERINERY INSTRUCTIONS.
Veterinary Colleges and Schools.
2. There are no veterinary colleges or schools in the province and there is,
therefore, nothing to record under the heading.
II.—TREATMENT OF DISEASE.
See Table II.
3. Outbreaks of contagious disease were reported from both Ajmer and
Merwara districts. The diseases reported
were rinderpest and foot and mouth disease
in bovines and distemper, rabies and mange in other animals. The total
mortality reported among all classes of animals was 217 against 836 last year.
Very little reliance, however, can be placed on the mortality statistics.
Bovine contagious disease.
4. Rinderpest.—Two hundred and nine head of cattle were reported to
have died out of 363 animals attacked in the Ajmer district.
5. Foot and mouth disease.—Sixty-one animals were attacked and one
died during the year under report.
See Table III.
6. Preventive Inoculation.—Four thousand and thirty-three head of
cattle were inoculated against rinderpest
in 8 outbreaks, in the Ajmer district.
Fourty-three deaths occurred among the inoculated animals.
Contagious disease in other animals.
7. Only 1 death from distemper in Ajmer, and 4 from rabies (1 in Ajmer
and 3 in Merwara) and 2 from mange in Merwara district were reported
during the year. Last year 200 deaths from anthrax, 562 from sheep pox, 1
from distemper, 13 from rabies and 5 from mange were reported from both
districts.
Other diseases.
See Table IV.
8. While on tour, Veterinary Assistants treated 300 animals for con-
tagious diseases and 24 animals for non-
contagious ailments against a total of 368
animals treated last year. The decrease in the number of animals treated is
partly due to the absence of the junior Veterinary Assistant, Ajmer, on three
months' leave and partly to the Veterinary Assistants at Ajmer being engaged
in inoculation work for nearly three months.
5
(4) Fairs and Shows.
See Table XIII.
11. Horse Fairs.—The Pushkar Horse Fair was held in November 1916.
One thousand four hundred and four
animals attended against 1,161 during
1914-15. Two hundred and forty-seven horses competed for and Rs. 263
were awarded in prizes as against 229 animals competed and Rs. 263 awarded
in 1914-15.
See Table XIV.
12. Cattle Fairs.—The annual cattle fair was held at Pushkar at the
same time as the horse fair. Seven
thousand six: hundred and six bullocks
and 6,558 camels were brought to the fair as against 10,785 bullocks and
3,534 camels during 1914-15. One hundred and fifty-six animals competed
for and Rs. 127 were awarded in prizes. During 1914-15, 148 animals com-
peted for and Rs. 118 were awarded in prizes. The Veterinary Assistant
explains that the decrease in the number of bullocks brought to the fair
was due to there being difficulty in obtaining railway trucks.
IV.—SUBORDINATE
ESTABLISHMENT.
13. The subordinate establishment consisted of 3 Veterinary Assistants as
in the previous year. Their work has been shown under the head "Veteri-
nary Dispensaries."
V.—EXPENDITURE OF THE DEPARTMENT.
See Table XIV-A.
14. The expenditure incurred from Local funds during the year was
Rs. 6,880-13-11 against an expenditure
of Rs. 4,184-12-0 in the previous year.
The increase in expenditure is partly due to a sum of nearly Rs. 1,500 being
paid for anti-rinderpest serum and partly to the high prices paid for medicines
and shoeing forge supplies.
VI.—GENERAL
REMARKS.
15. As stated last year it is impossible for one Superintendent to supervise
veterinary work in three provinces.
Owing to expansion of the veterinary departments in Baluchistan and
Sind the Superintendent's time is fully taken up in these provinces and the
control he can exercise over veterinary work in Rajputana is merely nominal.

I have the honour to forward, herewith, the annual administration report
of the Civil Veterinary Department in Ajmer-Merwara (British Rajputana) for

(Through the Commissioner, Ajmer-Merwara, Ajmer.)
Annual Administration Report of the Civil Veterinary
Department Ajmer-Merwara (British Rajputana),
for the official year 1917-18.
GENERAL ADMINISTRATION.
Mr. J. G. Cattell, M.R.C.V.S., held charge of the office of the Superintend-
ent, Civil Veterinary Department, Sind, Baluchistan and Rajputana, throughout
the year with the exception of 13 days in the end of March 1918 when he
proceeded to Quetta for training in the Army Remount Department and Khan
Bahadur S. G. Haji, Deputy Superintendent, Civil Veterinary Department,
Sind, acted as Superintendent from 19th to 31st March 1918 in addition to his
own duties.
2. Mr. Cattell inspected the veterinary dispensaries at Ajmer and Beawar
and travelled 549 miles by rail and 2 miles by road.
I.—VETERINARY INSTRUCTION.
Veterinary Colleges and Schools.
3. There are no veterinary colleges or schools in the province and there is,
therefore, nothing to be recorded under this heading.
II.—TREATMENT OF DISEASE.
See Table II.
4. Outbreaks of contagious diseases were reported from both Ajmer and
Merwara districts. The diseases reported
were surra and strangles in equines;
foot-and-mouth disease, hæmorrhagic septicaemia in bovines; and distemper,
mange and pox in other animals. The total mortality reported among all
classes of animals was 112 against 217 last year. Very little reliance, however,
can be placed on the mortality statistics.
5. The subordinates responsible for reporting outbreaks of epidemic
diseases should always send reports direct to the Veterinary Assistants because
it is important that an outbreak of disease should be attended to as quickly as
possible. Considerable and unnecessary delay is caused when reports are sent
through the Tehsildars.
Equine Contagious Diseases.
6. Surra.—Eleven deaths among horses were reported from the Ajmer
district during the year under report.
7. Strangles.—Two outbreaks of the disease were reported from the Ajmer
district. Thirteen animals were attacked and all recovered.
No equine contagious diseases were reported during the previous year.
Bovine Contagious Diseases.
8. Foot-and-mouth disease —Four outbreaks of foot-and-mouth disease
were reported among bovines in the Ajmer-Merwara district. Out of 101
attacked only one animal died, as against 61 attacked and one died last
year.
3
Beawar Veterinary Hospital.—Veterinary Assistant Nur Bakhsh was in
charge from 1st April to 17th May, from 3rd July to 6th August and again
from 7th December 1917 to 31st March 1918. Junior Veterinary Assistant
Fakhur-ud-din of Ajmer held charge of the hospital from 13th September to
6th December 1917. The dispensary was closed for 83 days.
Four hundred fifty four cases (43 in-patients and 411 out-patients)
were treated at the hospital during the year under report as against 838 cases
(73 in-patients and 765 out-patients) treated last year.
Of the 454 cases treated this year, 135 were equines, 155 bovines and 164
other animals. The decrease in the number of animals treated at this
hospital was due to the closing of the hospital for about three months and to
the prevalence of plague in the town and the neighbourhood.
While on tour, the Veterinary Assistant visited 50 villages and treated
94 cases for contagious and 4 cases for non-contagious diseases, as against
51 villages visited and 233 cases treated for contagious and 2 cases
for non-contagious diseases last year. The decrease in the number of cases
treated on tour was due to the closing of the veterinary dispensary for nearly
three months.
III.—BREEDING OPERATIONS.
(1) Bovines.
See Table VIII.
15. There was one bull present on 1st April 1917 which was made over to
the Goushala in July 1917. No cows were
served during the period the bull was in
charge of the District Local Board. The cost of maintenance of the bull was
Rs. 82-0-6.
There is nothing to be recorded under the heads (2) equines and (3) other
animals.
(4) Fairs and Shows.
16. The Pushkar Horse Fair and Cattle Show was abandoned this year
owing to the prevalence of plague in the district.
IV.—SUBORDINATE ESTABLISHMENT.
17. The subordinate establishment consisted of three Veterinary Assistants
as in the previous year. Their work has been shown under the head "Veteri-
nary Hospitals and Dispensaries."
V.—EXPENDITURE OF THE DEPARTMENT.
18. The expenditure incurred from Local Funds during the year was
Rs. 3,393-12-1 as against an expenditure of Rs. 6,880-13-11 in the previous
year.
VI.—GENERAL REMARKS.
19. It is evident that the Veterinary Assistants at Ajmer and Beawar are
not under sufficient professional supervision, but as matters stand at present
this is unavoidable. The Superintendent's work in Baluchistan and Sind has
increased during the last few years to such an enormous extent that he cannot
even exercise sufficient supervision over the work of subordinates in those two
provinces. It is therefore suggested that the expansion of the Department in
British Rajputana and the question of proper supervision may be taken up at
an early date.
