There is an increase of 109 over last year.
Demand for donkey stal-
lions.
22. Arrangements have been made by me to procure more Khorásan
donkeys, as they are popular in Sind, much cheaper
than Italians, and, judging from returns, appear to be
surer foal-getters. I have also made arrangements to
import a few Khorásan donkey mares, which the Zamindárs in Sind have pro-
mised to keep with a view of breeding donkey stallions suitable for this Depart-
ment. Although there is an increase in the number of mares covered in the
Deccan and Gujarát, the industry is not likely to become popular, and I regret
that I have come to the conclusion that the efforts made by this Department
to establish it are not likely to meet with success or have any lasting effects.
I propose continuing the present arrangement for another year, but have grave
doubts as to the result.
(2).—Number of Mules purchased by Government.
23. Table X will show that 27 mules were purchased by the Commis-
sariat Department during the year under report for transport purposes against
51 last year. Besides this, Captain Willis purchased 13 mules for regimental
transport.

25. There is an increase of Rs. 11-0-5 or 3.08 per cent. in the average
annual cost per stallion over last year. The real increase under this head, how-
ever, is much less, as will be seen by comparing the figures given in Table XXI.
It is only Rs. 326 for 93 stallions including donkeys or Rs. 3½ per stallion for
the whole year, and is generally attributed to the increased prices of gram and
fodder. The transit charges are shown separately this year in Table XI, al-
though they are included in the figures given above for the sake of comparison.
26. The average cost of feeding a pony is greater than that of a horse in
Sholápur and Hyderabad, for which no explanation is offered by the District
Officers. In Sholápur, however, it may be due to the fact that the pony was
kept at the district head-quarter where prices rule generally higher than at
táluka towns where the horse stallions are kept.
(2).—Branded Mares.
Number present at com-
mencement of year.

31. There is a slight increase in the total number of mares covered, viz.
1,894 against 1,869 last year, although the actual num-
ber of stallions at stud work remained practically the
same.
(3).—Produce.
Number foaled.
32. There is a slight increase in the average of mares covered per stallion
over last year and a fairly satisfactory increase in the
number foaled : 615 against 550 last year. The
average produce per stallion, 11.03 against 8.69 last year, shows improvement,
but these results are still far from satisfactory and the figures unreliable, as will
be seen from the following remarks by the District Officers in Sind :—
The Collector of Hyderabad—
" The very small percentage of successful coverings is striking. It is probably due to
the owners of mares giving false information as to results,"
9
The Deputy Commissioner, Upper Sind Frontier—
" I do not believe the results, as here shown, are to be relied on. I believe many mares
foal which are said not to. I am endeavouring to secure more care and attention to the
collection of results, but in this district it is very difficult. "
The Collector of Shikárpur—
" Horse stallion ' "Waverly ' had become quite useless in the district. The Zamindárs
take little interest in mule-breeding and only bring their mares when prevailed upon by
officers. Out of 319 mares covered, only 42 produced living colts and fillies and 70 per
cent. did not hold. From this it is believed that the stallion donkeys are not suited to the
district. Dark-coloured Persians are the best and most suitable in these parts."
The Assistant Collector, Lárkhána—
" The results are far from satisfactory, but there is, I think, little doubt that they can-
not be accepted as absolutely accurate. As in the case of the mares brought from Shahdádpur,
&c., the information has to be called from the Mukhtiárkars, who personally depute a
supervising Tapedár for enquiry. There is little chance of supervising them, and seeing if
they really ascertain the result of the coverings."
(4).— Castration.
Number of colts castrated.
33. The number of horse and mule colts castrated by Veterinary Assist-
ants and salutris during the year under report is
given in Table XII. The statistics for the last three
years are given below :—

34. There is a decrease of 20 in the number of colts castrated this year.
Out of the total number 151, only 32 were castrated by Veterinary Assistants
and 119 by salutris.
II.—MULE-BREEDING.
(1).—Government Donkey Stallions.
Cost of feed and keep.
35. The cost of feed, keep, &c., of Government donkey stallions during
1895-96 is given in Table XIV. The average annual
cost for the last three years is given below :—

There is a slight increase of Rs. 4 for the reasons given in paragraph 25
above. The cost of feeding a donkey in Ahmednagar, Rs. 401, appears to be
abnormally high ; but it is due to the fact that the four donkey stallions imported
this year were supplied with gear and kit, the charge for which has been included
under this head.
(2).—Pony and Donkey Mares.
Number served by Govern-
ment donkey stallions.
36. There is a satisfactory increase in the total number of pony mares
covered, viz., 872 against 762 last year, although
the number of donkey stallions actually at stud work
was only raised from 22.82 to 23.03.
(3).—Produce.
Number foaled.
37. There is an increase of 37.86 against 33.43 last year in the number of
mares covered per stallion, but a decrease in the actual
number foaled. The returns, however, are unreliable
(vide remarks of District Officers in Sind, paragraph 32 above).

of which Rs. 15,121-10-7 were actually awarded as prizes and Rs. 5,284-0-3
were spent for other purposes. Government contributed only Rs. 5,000.
45. The decrease in numbers throughout the various shows held in this
Presidency and in Sind is due to the fact that the classification was carried out
entirely by me and greater care exercised than in former years, when this duty
was performed by local officers and myself. I have adopted this plan for the
following reasons :—
1st.—That I see every animal that is brought to the show and only admit
those that are up to a certain standard.
2nd.—That when rejecting animals I can explain to the owner at once why
his animal is rejected, and give him a good and sufficient reason for so
doing.
3rd.—That this system carefully carried out will considerably raise the
standard of all shows throughout the Presidency and do away with
figures that are apt to be misleading, as there is no doubt that small
useless ponies, old worn-out horses, unfit for any purpose, that are not
likely to improve the horse wealth of the country, have in former years
been classified, thereby increasing the number at any given show, but
not improving its quality.
Stallions whose produce
won prizes.
46. Table XVI gives the number and class of sires whose produce won
prizes at several horse-fairs and shows held in this
Presidency during 1895-96.
47. Tables XVII—XX are not applicable to this Presidency and are there-
fore not given.
VI.—GENERAL.
48. Table XXI shows the total cost of the Department during the year
under report, which amounts to Rs. 69,074-15-10 against Rs. 66,856-13-11 last year.
The increase of Rs. 2,218-1-11 comes mainly under the head of " Officers' pay,"
as Veterinary Lieutenant Larnder was appointed to act for me during my absence
on three months' privilege leave, his pay during the time being debited to this
Department. The outlay has been divided under the following sub-heads :—
1. Cost of Supervision ... …

Of the total outlay, Rs. 11,527-9-0 were charged to Local Funds,

Government, and the balance Rs. 40,799-6-7 were paid from Provincial Revenues.
PART II.—PROVINCIAL REPORT.
I.—HORSE-BREEDING.
49. The Persian horse stallion " Shiraz " maintained by the Hyderabad
Local Board having died on the 3rd of October 1895, another Arab stallion,
" Maxim, " of this Department, was purchased by the Board for Rs. 300 in
March 1896. During the year under report, 12 mares were covered against 32 last
year. Taking into consideration the period, viz., 6 months, during which the
stallion was actually employed by the Board, this number is not unsatisfactory.
Out of 32 mares covered by him during 1894-95, 4 proved successful, 24 did not
hold, and the result of 4 mares is not known. The total cost of his feed and
keep amounted to Rs. 149-8-6.

63. Veterinary Graduate H. R. Kshirsagar.—The total number of cases
during the year was 503 against 392 last year (since
1st July only). The Veterinary Graduate toured through
10 tálukas out of the 12 in the district and visited 28
villages, in all of which outbreaks of rinderpest and
aptha epizootica occurred during the year. Out of
1,637 animals attacked, 673 died. He appears to have
met with more success than last year, and it is evident
that the people are more inclined to apply to him for
help. This is satisfactory and tends to show that time
is very necessary when endeavouring to introduce new
methods with the ordinary rayat. He acted for the
Resident Veterinary Graduate for six weeks and paid
55 visits to owners' houses. The work done is satisfactory.

65. Veterinary Graduate Soman.—Inspected by me on the 15th November
1895 and found to be in good order. New buildings
are urgently required, as the present accommodation
is totally inadequate. The total number of cases treated during the year was
925 against 709 last year. Out of the above number
159 were horses, 667 cattle, and the remainder goats,
sheep, &c. One case of castration is reported. The
Veterinary Graduate attended outbreaks of aptha
epizootica and rinderpest during the months of April,
May and June. The report shows steady progress
and is satisfactory, but the attention of the Graduate
should be called to the fact that he was very late in
submitting it, as it was not received by me until the
6th June 1896.

is due to the Veterinary Graduate for the ability and zeal displayed by him in

able site has been selected, plans and estimates pre-
pared for the erection of a permanent dispensary. The total number of cases during
the year was 1,260 against 1,146 last year.
In-patients 241. Out-patients 1,019. Out
of the above number, 525 were horses, 236
cattle, and the remainder sheep, camels, &c.
Eight cases of castration are reported.
The Veterinary Graduate attended the
horse-shows held at Moro and Talhár,
where he was of the greatest assistance.
He has superintended the work of the
Government stallions in the district and
has treated animals belonging to the
Police, Municipality, Local Fund Farm, &c.
The report is most satisfactory, and it is evident, from the progress that is being
made and the great popularity of the institution, that the Graduate is working
the dispensary on sound and intelligent lines.

Shikárpur.
76. Veterinary Graduate Vedh.—Inspected by me on the 8th January 1896
and found to be in a dirty insanitary state. I am of
opinion that moving the dispensary closer to the city
would considerably increase the number of both in-and-out-patients and make
the institution very much more popular. The total number of cases during the
year was 894 against 843 last year. In-
patients 173. Out-patients 721. Out of
the above number, 420 were horses, 282
cattle, and the remainder sheep, camels, &c.
One case of castration only is reported.
The Veterinary Graduate attended the
horse-show at Shikárpur and an outbreak
of aptha epizootica in the town ; he also
paid visits to owners' houses and treated
the Government stallions at Shikárpur.
He was prompt in destroying a horse
belonging to the Police suffering from
" Glanders." Owing to the canals failing this year, no doubt many animals were
taken out of the district ; but the report taken throughout is not satisfactory.
The Graduate appears to lack system in the management of the dispensary and
has failed to improve or make it popular. It is to be regretted that only one
case of castration has been reported, as Shikárpur is a good horse-breeding
district, and it is very necessary that the matter should receive more con-
sideration.

Country-bred
Remarks.

Number not known ;
but as this regi-
ment gets remounts
from Lahore it ia
presumed that a
certain percentage
are Khorásan hor-
ses.
It will be seen by this list that out of a total of 31 regiments 20 have a
certain percentage of horses bred beyond our frontiers. Out of the above
20, twelve, speaking of Khonásans, are of opinion that they are suitable as
troopers. The remaining 8 do not approve of them. Amongst the above
8 some few are, no doubt, pure Cabulis. The Calcutta tramways have 900
of these horses. The Bombay tramways have 20 per cent. The Karáchi
tramways have 90 per cent. The opinions of the Managers have already
been given. I have been unable to obtain statistics of British Cavalry and
Police ; but in this Presidency and in Sind, to my certain knowledge, a very
large number are mounted on Khorásan horses. I think it is quite un-
necessary for me to make any comments on the above figures, but would
simply wish to point out that, until some better and more useful horse can
be found to replace him, it behoves us to do all in our power to foster and
improve a trade on which so much of the horse power of India depends.
It must not for a moment be taken for granted that I am of opinion that
the Khorásan horse is the beau ideal of a trooper. He is not, and under the
present system of breeding and management never likely to be. He is full
of faults, but there is this to be said in his favour that he can be obtained
in moderately large numbers, is mature and fit to enter the ranks at once,
and last, but not least, the price is well within the reach of all Native
Cavalry Regiments.
3rd Turkomans.—I think that little need be said about these horses, as
very few find their way into India, and the few bad ones that do come, are
unsuitable, from their make and shape, for Native Cavalry. The best are
bred in the Merve Districts and, unless stolen, are not obtainable by dealers,
as the price is high, and certain restrictions as to their exportation prevent
the trade assuming anything like large proportions.
4th Country-breds.—The country-breds referred to in this list are horses
bred on and along the North-West Frontier and are the get of Government
25
83. The new stallion stables have been erected during the year at Ahmed-
nagar, and, it is to be hoped, will be fit to occupy before the end of the rains.
84. The scheme for pensioning and training syces has been brought into
force, and I trust it will in time have the desired effect of getting a thoroughly
reliable body of men in the Department who will understand the management of
a stud horse and lead to better results throughout, as I feel sure that the majority
of men employed at present as stallion syces know little and care less for the
valuable horses entrusted to their charge.
