which appeared in the "Statement" of 16th February
1940:—
"The Lohani breed from the North-West Frontier
Province which have entered for the first time, have
aroused much interest. It is stated that this breed
possesses a remarkable combination of both draught and
milch qualities and being small animals are well suited
for the hilly tracts of India. They are stated to possess
excellent adaptability and can thrive well in any altitude,
temperature and rainfall. They are good plough animals,
possess strong feet and consume very little fodder. The
cows, too, are reported to have great milk potentialities
and even without concentrates a daily milk yield of
about 10 lbs. on an average is not uncommon".
PART V—MISCELLANEOUS.
1. Expenditure—
The details of expenditure are given in Table IX.
2. Veterinary education—
On 1st April 1939 there were 30 stipendiary students
studying in different Veterinary Institutes detailed as
under:—
Punjab Veterinary College, Lahore ..
Bihar Veterinary College, Patna ..
Bengal Veterinary College, Calcutta ..
Total ..
23

30
Five students completed the prescribed course and all
of them were absorbed in the Civil Veterinary Depart-
ment, North-West Frontier Province. Four more
students were sent for study to Bihar Veterinary College,
Patna, during the year under report, thus leaving the
total number of stipendiary students to 29 at the end of
the year.
3. General remarks—
The Department, though on the whole, functioned in
a very satisfactory manner, yet my views are that the
utility of the Department could be still further enhanced
20
by opening of a well-equipped Provincial Veterinary
Laboratory and a Livestock Research Station. It is
obvious that the disease control work of the Province
cannot be effectively carried out unless we have means
at our disposal to diagnose diseases promptly and
accurately for supply of potent Sera and Vaccines with
equal promptness and accuracy. The Province is spend-
ing Rs. 1,12,870 on the control of contagious diseases
and yet there are no facilities for the professional staff
to obtain prompt and accurate diagnosis.
On the livestock improvement side the position is
equally peculiar as in the absence of a Research Station
it is impossible to have accurate and reliable information
regarding Livestock problems. In the absence of a
Livestock Research Station neither Small Scale Live-
stockbreeding can be carried out according to the re-
quirements of the Province, nor it is possible to make
any lasting progress in the Livestock Improvement work.
Until the Province is in a position to be able to replace,
at will, the stud animals of whatever improved species
are introduced into the Province, no Livestock Scheme is
likely to produce results of a permanent nature.
The outstanding features of the year under report
are the success that it has achieved in the control of
livestock diseases, particularly Rinderpest, by the use of
locally prepared Goat Tissue Virus Vaccine and the re-
arrangement of the livestock breeding activities on a
more comprehensive and scientific footing. It would
not be out of place to record that in the latter half of
the year under report minimum number of transfers of
the professional staff were effected which apart from
being economical materially contributed towards the
better functioning of the Department as a unit.
I wish to thank all Deputy Commissioners and
Political Agents, particularly Mr. Curtis, Deputy Com-
missioner, Hazara and Major Mallam, Political Agent,
Dir, Swat and Chitral, for their ceaseless efforts in assist-
ing to enhance the usefulness of the Department to the
zamindars.
I also wish to record my appreciation of the co-
operation rendered by the members of the Department
21
both professional and non-professional, particularly
M. Abdul Wahid Khan, Office Veterinary Assistant
Surgeon and M. Ghulam Sarwar Khan, Head Clerk.
