The number of boys now on the register is six. These Shans have been a sore trial. Beyond the fact that they
are well behaved in class, I can say little that is good in their favor. They are not only dull and apathetic, but
absent themselves whenever they feel weary of things in general. Fining them has little effect as they then do not
pay for their board and lodging. Three boys, namely, Maung Po Lon, Maung Po Nya, and Maung Seik Ta, are now
doing well and I hope they will turn out fair assistants. Maung Po Han, Maung Tok Pyu, and Maung No are not
nearly so well up. They have been warned that, if by the 1st of June their progress is not what it should be, they
will be sent back.
1120. Considering the raw material with which Veterinary-Captain Evans
has to work, I think the results exceptionally good. It is only due to his untiring
energy that he is able to keep the Veterinary Assistants up to the standard they
have obtained. Veterinary-Captain Evans brings to notice the good work done
by Mr. Batlivala.
Veterinary
Instruction in
North-Western
Provinces.
1121. There is no Veterinary School in the North-Western Provinces but a
most useful system has been adopted by which students, prior to proceeding to
the Lahore School, are awarded a scholarship of Rs. 5 per mensem for one year,
and are sent to the Depôt at Babugarh for practical training in hospital work;
this will thoroughly accustom them to animals and will tend to enable them to
derive more benefit from the training which they receive at Lahore.

VI.—TOURS OF SUPERINTENDENTS.
1122. Table P. will show the tours of the various Superintendents. This
table also gives the distances travelled by rail, road, &c., the districts visited and
the Shows attended.
1123. The work done by Superintendents connected with horse and mule
breeding is as follows:—

1124. To develop horse and mule-breeding it is imperative that Officers of
this Department should travel as much as possible by road. This is necessary
in order that they should see as much of the young stock as possible in the
various districts, and this they cannot expect to do unless they march through
each tehsil. Rail is necessary in order to enable them to go to outlying parts
expeditiously, but this method of travelling is not to be advocated.
1125. It is, therefore, pleasing to note that the Superintendents, Civil Veteri-
nary Department, North-Western Provinces and Oudh, and South Punjab, main-
tained their high averages of last year, and that the Superintendents, North
Punjab and Baluchistan, greatly exceeded theirs. When the work done by these
Officers is considered, Bombay compares very unfavorably.
1126. The Superintendents, whose duties may be described (as far as their
various Provinces are concerned) as being connected with cattle, travelled the
following distances by road:—
Superintendent,

...

1127. No travelling was done in Ajmere-Merwara owing to the Principal,
Rajputana Veterinary School, having proceeded on furlough in November and
it being necessary that the Officiating Principal should devote the whole of his
time to the School.
1128. The distance shown as having been traversed in Burma includes that
travelled by river.
1129. Both the Superintendents, Bengal and Central Provinces, have done
excellent work.

PART II.—PROVINCIAL REPORT.
VII.—GENERAL.
Provincial cost
of Department.
1130. Table Q. shows the Provincial cost of the Department during
1897-98 to have amounted to Rs. 2,67,161-12-1 against Rs. 2,06,607-9-7 last
year. The chief differences are under the following heads:—
Establishment Officers.
Do.
Subordinates.
Travelling allowance of Officers.
Contingencies.
Stable feed and keep of Provincial stallions.
Medicines and Instruments in Burma.
GENERAL.
1131. As affording a ready method for reference and as adopted last year,
I purpose giving below a short summary of the work done during the year.
IMPERIAL.
1132. This Department has passed through two years of famine, and it was
only natural to expect that horse-breeding would suffer. It is always with
regret that I have to own to any falling off in this important direction, but as
will be seen below, there has been a certain amount of retrogression all through;
it is but slight and I confidently expected that it would have been greater; this
undoubtedly would have occurred had it not been for the careful supervision
exercised by all the Superintendents. I trust, therefore, that the Government
of India will recognize the difficulties under which we have worked and that
they will be satisfied with the results. The main difficulties arose:—
(a).—From the fact that many mares were removed from districts in
quest of fodder, and that many were sold.
(b).—The extreme debility of some of the mares belonging to small
owners which prevented them holding.
(c).—The ignorance of the ordinary zemindar and his fear that if he
brought his animals to be served or branded, they would be seized
for service.
Horse-breeding—
Imperial.
1133. Three hundred and fourteen (314) stallions were at stud work
against the same number last year; 14,467 mares were covered against 15,152
last year. This, showing as it does only a decrease of 685, must, under the
circumstances, be considered satisfactory.
1134. 46.08 mares were covered per stallion employed against 48.17 last
year. The percentage, viz: 46.08 being less than is expected of the stallions.
I feel bound to explain that if the 4 large breeding centres, viz: North-Western
Provinces, North Punjab, South Punjab and Baluchistan, are taken alone, we
find that each stallion covered 50.86 which is slightly above the sanctioned
number. The reduction is due to the Deccan, Guzerat, and Sind.
1135. Four thousand two hundred and sixty-nine (4.269) foals were dropped
against 4,090 last year.
213
1150. The rearing of young donkey stock has led to 16 Jacks being
allotted to the Imperial lists for mule-breeding; this must be considered satisfac-
tory.
Castration.
1151. Castration by Imperial Salutris has improved during the year; this
surprises me for many of the colts were in such low condition that they could not
be operated on.
The following will allow of comparisons being drawn:—

I am glad to say that the above good results have not been obtained by any
reduction in the standard of the examinations, for, in some cases, Veterinary-
Captain Gunn, who was a Member of the Board of Examination, describes them
as searching.
There is still great improvement required in the practical training of the
Subordinate Staff.
Provincial
Horse
breeding.
1154. Both interest and success continue to be obtained by the ponies
maintained by District Boards and other bodies; through their use the general
stock of the country is being greatly improved.
1155. One hundred and sixty-three (163) stallions were employed against
172 last year, and although showing a decrease, still it is very satisfactory to find
that the number of mares covered, rose from 8,139 in 1896-97 to 8,420 this year,
an increase of 281.
1156. The number of foals dropped also rose from 2,167 to 2,228.
Cattle Disease.
1157. Last year attention was called to the good work done in connection
with cattle, and it is extremely satisfactory to be able to record this year a great
advance on last year. If only Government will sanction a few more Officers to
conduct this special work it is anticipated that incalculable good will accrue to the
country, and cause a great saving to the cultivators.
215
1166. I would also record my best thanks to all the Local Governments and
Administrations with whom I have been connected during the past year; they
have heartily co-operated with me in all matters tending to the welfare of the De-
partment.
1167. The same remarks will also apply to all Native Chiefs whose States
I have visited during the year, and I would take this opportunity of thanking them
as well as all Officers of the Political Department for their courtesy and help.
Had it not been for the aid afforded me, the success which has been obtained in
matters connected with horse and mule-breeding in Native States could not have
been reached.
