23. The causes of removal are given in Table XII. As horse-breeding
in Sind was transferred to the control of the Superintendent, Civil Veterinary
Department, Beluchistan, from 1st April 1898, all the registers of branded mares
in that province were sent to that officer, and owing to the abolition of mule-breed-
ing in the Deccan and Gujarát, the number of mares branded for donkey service
were struck off the registers.

during the year under report was 1,267. Besides this,
199 mares were served under the certification sys-
tem.
Certification system.
26. Last year it was recommended that the system should be abandoned.
But Government in their Resolution in the Revenue
Department, No. 3668, dated 2nd June 1898, having
ruled that a further trial be given to the system, a full report on the work done
by the several officers has already been submitted and a short review is given
below.
27. Reports were received from 17 out of 35 officers on the list; six of them
have certified 90 mares as shown below and the rest have not exercised their
powers owing to their being in non-breeding districts or to press of other
work:—

28. The rule A under Government Resolution, Revenue Department, No.
6985, dated 21st August 1894, whereby certificates can only be issued in districts
where the number of branded mares has not reached an average of 50 per stal-
lion, is not observed. Owners generally failed to produce the certificates with
the mares, and great difficulty was experienced in ascertaining whether all of
them were certified or not. Only 22 mares bearing certificates were inspected
and branded during the year. Almost all officers are unanimous in stating that
owners do not avail themselves of the opportunity offered them of having their
mares certified under the system. As the number of branded mares in every
breeding district has already reached, in some cases exceeded, an average of 50
per stallion, the system cannot be made applicable to this Presidency if the
above quoted rule A is to be strictly adhered to. It is, therefore, again recom-
mended that the system should be discontinued.
29. It appears from their Resolution in the Revenue and Agricultural
Department, No. 11-124-2, dated 7th April 1899, that the Government of India
also do not approve of the continuance of the system in this Presidency.
(3).—Produce.
30. Out of 1,105 mares covered during the last year, 386 foaled, 585 did
not hold, and the result of 134 is not known. The percentages of the results are
given below and compared with the figures of the last year in each province:—

31. It will be seen that though there is a slight increase in "not held,"
the percentage of "produce" is also increased with a corresponding fall in the
results "unknown". The results in the Gujarát are rather disappointing this
year, but they are more than counterbalanced by those in the Deccan.

lions for the last two years:—

33. The average produce foaled per stallion has decreased from 10.65 to
8.62. The fall is chiefly noticeable in the case of Hackney and Norfolk Trotter.
I attribute the great fall in the average number of produce to the fact that last
year was a famine year and the result of which was that the mares were in very
poor condition and as a result of being badly done, did not hold. The great
fall in Norfolk Trotter may be accounted for in addition that they are old and
in each of the three cases now remaining they are showing signs of premature
old age.

44. Reports were received in the prescribed form from all districts except
the six noted in the margin. It should not be
supposed, however, that these districts were quite
free from any disease. Special reports submitted
by the Itinerating Veterinary Graduate, Kaira,
to the Survey Commissioner and Director of Land Records and Agriculture, who
forwarded them to this office for perusal, show that several villages in the Kaira
District were affected with rinderpest, although no report was received in the
prescribed form by me, and the fact has been brought to the notice of the Col-
lector. Similar may be the case in many other districts from which no reports
have been received. The reported number of attacks from various diseases was
4,284 against 8,025, excluding Sind, last year, of which 1,262 or 29.45 per cent.
proved fatal. Out of the total mortality nearly 66 per cent. or two-thirds were
contributed by rinderpest, and the remaining one-third by other diseases.
The attached sketch map will show the tract affected by cattle-disease during
the year, and the degree of severity with which they were affected.
(2).—Outbreaks during the year.
45. Rinderpest.—This disease was prevalent as usual, in most of the
districts, being serious in Thána and the Panch Maháls. It contributed nearly 66
per cent. to the total mortality from all causes, although the total number of
attacks and deaths was much less than in former years.
Anthrax—Reported from four districts. Nowhere serious except in Rat-
nátgiri. The total number attacked was 160, of which 139, or nearly 87 per
cent., proved fatal.
Foot and mouth disease—Occurred in seven out of twelve districts which
sent in reports. The mortality was throughout very low as usual, except in
Ahmedabad, where it reached 33. per cent., and it is doubtful if the disease was
properly diagnosed.
Pleuro-pneumonia—Not reported from any of the districts.
Charbon Symptomatique.—A few cases reported from three destricts, but
specially confined to Kánara, where 40 animals died out of 85 attacked.
Other diseases—Include six cases of glanders which were destroyed under
the Act, 46 of surra and 75 of gloss anthrax, almost all of which have either
died or been destroyed.
(3).—Treatment, Vaccination, &c.
46. Out of twelve districts from which cattle-disease reports were received
during the year, seven districts had the advantage of the services of Veterinary

and found to be in good order. The total number of
cases treated during the year amounted to 1,945
against 1,841 last year. Out of the above number, 64
were in-patients, 155 Pinjrapole and 1,726 out, in-
cluding the species of 440 horses, 1,083 cattle and the
remainder sheep, goats, dogs, &c. He castrated 5
horses, paid 41 visits to cattle markets and supervised
the working of the Government stallions. The num-
ber of unknown cases is very large and should receive
careful attention from the Graduate in future.

of the above number, 150 were horses, 528 cattle and
the remainder sheep, goats, dogs, &c. He paid 25
visits to owners' houses. The dispensary and the
Pinjrapole are still amalgamated. This is from want
of necessary funds required to have a separate build-
ing for the dispensary.

61. Veterinary Graduate D. G. Kulkarni.—The total number treated
during the year was 507 against 854 last year. The
Graduate was deputed on plague duty for about four
months, and taking into consideration the period of 8 months during which he
worked, the above number is not disappointing.
He attended an outbreak of foot and mouth
disease in the town. The duty in connection with
horse-breeding was for the first time transferred
to the Graduate. He appears to have made a
separate tour for the inspection of branded mares
alone and asked the Mámlatdárs to furnish in-
formation for the produce and covering returns.
It was the duty of the Graduate to check the
produce of stallions and to take a copy of the
covering books whenever he visited the stand,
and if he had arranged his tour systematically he
could have done this work simultaneously with other duties. It is hoped that
he will attend to this in future.

which the city of Dhárwár suffered terribly. There were 37 in-patients and
1,531 out: the various species being
151 horses, 1,066 cattle and the re-
mainder sheep, goats, dogs, &c. The
outbreak of aphtha epizootica was
more or less prevalent in the town
throughout the year, and the only cases
that were brought to the dispensary
were treated, but no regular preventive
measures could be taken owing to plague
restrictions. Two cases of anthrax were detected and were duly dealt with.
The number of unknown cases appears to be somewhat large, and should receive
proper attention from him in future—

66. Veterinary Inspector V. R. Pitke.—This is the second report since the
establishment of the dispensary and the first submitted
to this office for review during the year under report.
The total number treated during the year was 1,478 against 1,424 last year,
the species being 112 horses, 1,224
cattle and the remainder sheep, dogs,
&c. He attended outbreaks of rinder-
pest, foot-and-mouth disease and gloss
anthrax, and took prompt measures to
suppress them all. The dispensary
is maintained wholly by the District
Local Board and deserves support from
Government—

time. The total number of cases treated during the
year was 1,335, all out-patients, as no building has
yet been provided for the dispensary and accommodation for in-patients. The
most prevailing epidemic in the district
was foot-and-mouth disease, which
forms the majority of the above cases.
Next come rinderpest and anthrax.
The Graduate was active in his move-
ments, attended all outbreaks and took
prompt measures in suppressing them.

pol and 2,314 out. The species were
736 horses, 990 cattle and the remainder
sheep, dogs, camel, &c. He attended
weekly cattle markets in order to
prevent an entrance of an infected ani-
mal into the town. He also attended
outbreaks of the epidemics of aptha
epizootica, variola vaccinia and rin-
derpest. He paid 143 visits to owners'
houses, attended the Mounted Police
horses, the Pinjarapol and the Government stallions. He is doing excellent
work and the institution has become very popular :—

total number of cases treated during the year was

and 1,983 out, including the species of 293
horses, 1,484 cattle and the remainder sheep,
dogs, &c. He attended a mild attack of
foot and mouth disease in the town of
Nadiád and also at Mahij in the Mehmada-
bad Táluka. He also supervised the working
of the Government stallions in his charge
at Nadiád, paid 73 visits to owners' houses,
attended Police horses, and worked in ad-
dition to his own duties as plague super-
visor for two months. The institution has
been making steady progress and great
credit is due to the Graduate for its good management.

70. Veterinary Graduate V. D. Patel.—The total number of cases treated
during the year was 534 against 795 last year.
Out of the above number 31 were horses, 475 cattle
and the remainder sheep, goats, dogs, &c. The Graduate was employed on
plague duty for 5 months and had only 7
months at his disposal for his ordinary
duties. When this fact is taken into con-
sideration, the above number, although it
shows a considerable fall, must be consider-
ed satisfactory. He attended outbreaks
of gloss anthrax, rinderpest and aphtha
epizootica and was active in his movements.
The duty in connection with horse-breeding
in the district was transferred to the Gra-
duate for the first time during the year and
is performed satisfactorily. The figures for
receipts, expenditure and balance are included in the review of the Nadiád
Veterinary Graduate's report.

It will be seen from the above table that there is profit in both the arrange-
ments, viz., Rs. 41-6-1, on account of grass raised in the stable enclosure and
Rs. 741-4-11 in the kuran. The diminution in profit is due to the fact that
grass is very much cheaper this year.
