12. Vaccine Depôt.—The total number of capillary tubes loaded during the year
was 587,386 as compared with 591,825, in the preceding year, showing a decrease of
4,439. The number of tubes issued during the year was 557,395, against which
385,579 operations have been reported. The number of calves inoculated during the
year was 527 and lymph was taken from 458 calves, the remaining 69 calves being
rejected, 28 on account of failure of operation, 4 on account of illness and 37 on
account of ulceration and unsatisfactory vesicles, as compared with 95 in 1922-23 and
109 in 1921-22. Sixty-eight thousand two hundred and twenty lymph tubes to the value
of Rs. 4,263-12-0 at one anna per tube were issued by value payable post to various
tea gardens, Railway Medical Officers and the Manipur State. This being the first
year in which the lymph is being charged for, some tea garden authorities refused to
receive parcels on payment, presumably not being aware at the time of sending their
indents that they would have to pay for them, and therefore a sum of Rs. 68 had to
be written off. The total cost of working the depôt amounted to Rs. 13,561 against
Rs. 15,998 in the preceding year, the decrease being mainly due to less expenditure
under the head " Capillary tubes". The quality of lymph supplied is generally reported
to be excellent. The subordinate charge of the depôt was held by Sub-Assistant Surgeon
Narayan Chandra Das Gupta who worked to the satisfaction of the Superintendent.
13. Cost of the Department.—The total cost of the Department was Rs. 86,373-
15-10, which is Rs. 1,986-14-2 less than that of the preceding year. The average
cost of each successful case of vaccination was 4 annas and 5 pies, as compared with
4 annas and 7 pies in 1922-23.
14. General.—A total of 19,418 vaccination operations, of which 17,104 were
primary and 2,314 were revaccinations, were performed by tea garden medical officers
during the year, as compared with 18,597 with 16,473 primary and 2,124 revaccina-
tions in 1922-1923. The percentages of success were 96.36 and 73.68, respectively.
The vaccine lymph supplied to tea gardens was charged for at the rate of one anna
per tube with effect from July 1923 under Government Order No. 2904-E., dated the
17th July 1923. Three thousand and eighty operations were performed in Jail Hospi-
tals, Lunatic Asylum, Police Hospitals and Emigration Hospitals by their respective
medical officers and 232 by Railway Medical Officers against 5,044 and 150 in 1922-23.
