Part III.—Breeding Operations.
49. The number of stud bulls kept by Government and local bodies
increased from 201 in the previous year to 266 in the year under review.
Of these 190 were the property of the local bodies. Table VIII shows
the distribution of these animals in the various parts of the province.
50. The number is far below the requirements of the province and it
is hoped local bodies, which have not yet taken up the matter, will
co-operate with the Live-Stock Expert by allotting funds for the purchase
and maintenance of more stud bulls, especially in the outlying portions
of the districts.
Extension of the premium bull system is urgently needed. In the
places in which it has been started by the Live-Stock Expert, it has
worked well. More Live-Stock officers are required for this work.
Fairs and Shows.
51. Tables XIII and XIV show the particulars of fairs and shows
held during the year. All these were inspected either by the Inspectors
or local Veterinary Assistant Surgeons.
52. There are at present about 48 cattle fairs in this Presidency
where in normal years about 2 lakhs of cattle and other animals are sold
each year. These animals are brought for sale by the dealers from differ-
ent parts of India and it is reported they pay no rent or tax to any body
in this province.
53. These melas are a source of contagious diseases of animals in
Bengal. If these can be controlled, the number of outbreaks might be
considerably lowered and thereby expenditure curtailed.
Bull Breeding and Rearing Farms.
54. There are at present 3 such farms in this province, one at
Kalimpong, another at Rangpur and the third at Manipur in Dacca.
The first is managed by St. Andrew's Colonial Homes and the last two
by the Agricultural Department.
55. Rangpur Farm.—The health of the cattle on this Farm has
improved and hæmorrhagic septicæmia, which gave so much trouble,
has been brought under control through the adoption of the measures
recommended by Mr. H. Cooper, I.V.S., Pathologist, Imperial Institute
of Veterinary Research. A special vaccine serum was prepared at the
Institute. The Farm was also visited in February by the Animal
Husbandry Expert, Imperial Council of Agricultural Research, and the
Director of the Institute to investigate this matter and examine the other
causes of loss mentioned in Mr. MacGregor's report on the Farm, which
was published last year. They were accompanied by the Director and the
Assistant Director of Agriculture and the Live-Stock Expert and myself,
and it was decided that it is essential to have a resident Veterinary Officer
on the Farm to be responsible for the care of the live-stock in health and
disease. This necessity is emphasised by the sporadic continuance of
pneumonia in young calves and the recrudescence of contagious lymphan-
gitis among the cattle, which calls for close investigation by an officer on,
12
the spot. Both these diseases are under investigation by the Imperial
Institute of Veterinary Research.
The appointment of such an officer is now under the consideration of
Government.
56. Dacca Farm.—Hæmorrhagic septicæmia made its appearance in
this Farm also during the year, but was controlled by the application of
hæmorrhagic septicæmia vaccine. The general health of the animals,
particularly young stock, has been greatly improved by mineral feeding
introduced in the last few years.
57. St. Andrew's Homes Farm.—This is a Dairy Farm for the
supply of milk to the Homes. The herd is partly Ayreshire and partly
cross-bred Ayreshire and Hill cattle. The animals are in good condition
and I note with interest that the Cross Ayreshire-Siri makes an excellent
milch cow. A new dairy building has been built and will shortly be
equipped with modern machinery and appliances. This dairy in con-
junction with extension of the herd will shortly make the Homes
independent of outside supply for milk and dairy products.
Horse and Pony Stallion.
58. There was no horse or pony stallion in this province. Tables X.
XI and XII are therefore blank.
Part IV.—Subordinate Staff.
59. Table VII shows in detail the staff employed on veterinary work
in this province during the year.
60. The two temporary posts of Live-Stock Officer, which were
retrenched by the Agricultural Department, were revived in the begin-
ning of the year, and the two officers who worked previously in these
posts, were again deputed for this work.
61. The district board of Dinajpur obtained the sanction of Govern-
ment to the entertainment of a fourth Veterinary Assistant Surgeon in
this district. The officer to fill this post was appointed on the 1st March
1931.
62. The proposal of the district board of Dacca for the creation of
seven additional posts of Veterinary Assistant Surgeon in this district
received the sanction of Government after the close of the year. It is
hoped these posts will be opened by the board at an early date.
General Remarks.
63. Travelling allowance.—The allotment for my travelling allow-
ance has been cut down year by year and under present circumstances it
is impossible for me to keep in touch with Chairmen of district boards
with whom I have to work in dual control of the district staff, or to
maintain personal knowledge of the work of the Veterinary Assistant
Surgeons. Shortage of funds is our main hinderance to progress. It
limits expansion of staff and it is obvious that 112 men to cope with over
25 million cattle are totally inadequate. It limits the activity of the
present staff, and the conduct of all experimental work. Financial
stringency has practically put a stop to all progress in the direction of
14
on Government Farm cattle in collaboration with the Live-Stock Expert.
These experiments are being continued and fortunately do not depend on
the provision of additional funds.
67. Assistant Directors.—Rai Sahib .N. N.
Majumdar.—Government
was pleased to confer the title of Rai Sahib on this officer in June 1931.
He has continued to work throughout thé year with the same zeal and
efficiency for which he was awarded the title. Much useful experimental
work could not have been taken up without his help.
Maulvi M. S. Chowdhuri.—This
officer displayed commendable devo-
tion to duty and carried out the work of his Range with efficiency and
tact. This was more difficult in view of the unsettled conditions both
at his headquarters in Dacca and throughout the Range.
68. Veterinary Inspectors.—Without exception these officers worked
well and did their utmost to maintain the standard of efficiency in spite
of financial stringency which hindered the work in all directions.
Those working in the Eastern Range deserve special commendation—
Babus M. P. Ghose and P. N. Mukherjee and Maulvi Abdul Quader—
for carrying on as though conditions were undisturbed.
69. Veterinary Assistant Surgeons.—The following officers are
commended for good work:—
Western Range.
Babu L. M. Roy Chowdhuri, Itinerant Veterinary Assistant Surgeon.
Babu S. C. Gupta, Stationary Veterinary Assistant Surgeon, Rangpur.
Babu C. H. Sen Gupta, Stationary Veterinary Assistant Surgeon,
Darjeeling.
Babu N. C. Pathak, Itinerant Veterinary Assistant Surgeon, Chua-
danga.
Babu J. N. Roy, Itinerant Veterinary Assistant Surgeon, Khulna.
Maulvi M. J. Baksh, Itinerant Veterinary Assistant Surgeon, Meher-
pur.
Eastern Range.
Maulvi S. Ahmed, Itinerant Veterinary Assistant Surgeon, Chitta-
gong.
Babu J. K. Chakma, Itinerant Veterinary Assistant Surgeon, Ranga-
mati.
Babu M. N. Majumdar, Stationary Veterinary Assistant Surgeon,
Dacca Government Hospital.
Babu M. R. Sen Gupta, Veterinary Assistant Surgeon, Dacca Muni-
cipal Hospital.
70. Office.—The ministerial officers deserve my special commendation
for their efforts to cope with the office work, though seriously hondicapped.
The strain of doing so has told upon the general health and frequent
15
absences on account of ill health have been unavoidable, the difficulties-
of the office as a whole being increased thereby.
I wish to place on record that all members of the Civil Veterinary
Department staff have worked loyally throughout the year and that
there has been no noticeable reduction in their efforts under the 10 per
cent. cut in salaries. For officers on salaries under Rs. 100 per month
this cut entails greater hardship than upon those on higher rates and I
hope Government may be able to grant relief to these officers at all events,
at no very distant date.
I wish to record my appreciation of the work of Babu K. K. Banerjee,
Laboratory Assistant in charge of the Serum Store. The issue of sera,
etc., has been carried out in a most satisfactory manner.
P. J. KERR, I.V.S.,
Director, Civil Veterinary Department, and
Veterinary Adviser to the Government of Bengal.
