To
THE OFFG. SECRETARY TO THE CHIEF COMMISSIONER,
Central Provinces.
Dated Nagpur, the 6th April 1883.
SIR,
I have the honor to forward for submission to the Chief Commissioner
the Annual Report of the Nagpur School of Medicine for the year 1882-83.
2. The School was closed on the 31st March, owing to the requirements of
the Central Provinces not being sufficient to warrant the necessary expenditure.
3. When the school was closed there were attending it, 12 third year's
students, all of whom passed the qualifying examination. They now rank as
Passed Medical Pupils, and in that capacity will be posted as follows :—
Nagpur
...
. . .
4
jubbulpore
...
. . .
4
Raipur
...
... 2
Hoshangabad
...
. . . 2
They will work for a year under the orders of the Civil Surgeons of these
places. At the end of that time they will be promoted to the rank of 3rd class
Hospital Assistants if they are favourably reported on by the Civil Surgeons
under whom they serve.
4. There were 10 second year's students, 9 of whom passed. One Daji
Gungadhar failed. Of the 9 who passed, 8 are Government students, and will
go to Patna on the 15th June 1883 to continue their education. One
Chit-tambaram Pillay is a private student, and has not hitherto received any stipend
from Government; but Dr. Brake strongly recommends that he should now be
entertained as a Government student, and sent with the 8 others to Patna.
5. There were only 2 first year's students. Both have passed, and both
will go to Patna.
6. Of the 3 Teachers in the Nagpur Medical School :—
Mr. Jadub Kishen Ghose, teacher of Medicine, and Honorary Assistant
Surgeon to the Viceroy, has retired on pension.
Mr. Jadunath Ghose, teacher of Anatomy and Surgery, has been appointed
Civil Medical Officer, Chhindwara.
Mr. Kali Kishen Ghose, teacher of Materia Medica, has been posted to the
charge of the Mayo Hospital. Dr. Brake calls him a zealous, painstaking, and
intelligent officer.
2
7. The conduct of the students has generally been very good. Only 8 of
them were punished, 3 students being twice punished. The offences were for the
most part trivial.
8. Most of the students showed that they were thoroughly acquainted
with the subjects on which they were examined.
9. At the examination, 4 third year's students got ¾th marks; 4 second
year's students got ¾th marks. There were only first year's students. Both
got 85 per cent of the marks.
10. Dr. Brake thinks that some of these young men could compete with
success at any European school, and that if they continue to work as they have
hitherto done, they will do great credit to the school where they commenced
their education, and which they are now leaving.
I have the honor to be,
Sir,
Your most obedient Servant,

FROM
BRIGADE SURGEON J. BRAKE,
late PRINCIPAL MEDICAL SCHOOL,
To
TEE DEPUTY SURGEON GENERAL,
Central Provinces.
Dated Nagpur, 3rd April 1883.
SIR,
I have the honor to submit for the information of the Chief Commis-
sioner the Annual Report on the progress of the Nagpur Medical School for the
year ending March 31st 1883.
This will be the last report, as it having been considered desirable to close
the school, owing to the requirements of the Central Provinces not being suffi--
cient to warrant the expenditure, and no assistance being received elsewhere,
the students who have satisfactorily completed their second and first year's
studies will be transferred to another school.
The school opened for the session on June 1st 1882, with 13 third year's
students, 12 second year's students including Chittambram Pillay, a free student,
that is, one not receiving a stipend from Government, and ten young men
selected from applicants who had passed the High school examination for North--
brook scholarships.
There was at the time a rumour that the school was about to be closed, and
this, I believe, was the cause of a great want of application on the part of the
new students; so that when the question of closing was definitely settled, after
a number of viva voce weekly examinations, I recommended that seven of the
first year's men should be sent to their homes and two of the second year
who had not improved and were otherwise unpromising, one from failing eye-
sight, the other from want of application. One of three first year's men retained
as painstaking and intelligent, refused to be transferred and was allowed to
resign.
A third year's student, Ramji Tukaram, from the Nagpur district deserted
on July 19th and could not be found, so that at the end of the Session there
were present :—
12 third year's students.
10second „ ,,
2 first ,, ,,
All with one exception have passed qualifying examinations, the first twelve
as " Passed Medical Students," nine as fit to commence their third year's course,
and two the second year's course of study.
Besides the viva voce examinations on all subjects, which were held weekly
throughout the Session, the whole were examined in March, giving written
answers to questions set to the several classes in all the subjects studied ; and
they are arranged according to the number of marks gained, each student
reading his own paper( supervised by others ) and the marks being given by the
teachers and myself to each answer as read.
The examination was a very satisfactory one. The students passed out of
the school , will, I believe, do good service, and have certainly been well grounded
2
in the rudiments and principles of their profession, besides having had excellent
opportunities of tending patients and examining disease in the wards of the Hos-
pital, the practical questions being based on cases treated during the year.
Some of the young men could compete with success in the examination at any
of the European schools.
If the young men of the second and first years continue as they have
begun, I am quite sure that they will, in the school to which they are about to be
sent, bring credit to the school they are now leaving. I propose to send their
written answers, so that their new teachers, if so inclined, may be able to judge of
their attainments.
Of the 3rd year’s students, 4 passed in the 1st class, 3 in the 2nd, and 5 in
the 3rd class.

Nanak Pershad failed in Anatomy, but had carefully studied the other
subjects; and as he obtained 69.4 per cent of marks for Anatomy in 1882, and
had a very good general knowledge of the subject, I passed him, he having
obtained 68.1 per cent in the aggregate.
The second year’s students rejected at the commencement of the Session
were Trimbuk Bhalchandra and Gunput Pershad, who barely passed in the pre-
ceding year; and of the 10 remaining, Daji Gangadhar completely failed, with-
drawing after the first two papers on Anatomy and Materia Medica. Of the 9
ot hers, al l obt ai ned suffi ci ent marks t o warrant t hei r bei ng ret ai ned, and 8
did exceptionally well, obtaining over 70 per cent of marks given. The last on
the list, Chittambaram Pillay, obtaining 58.4 per cent, is a free student, not in
Government employ. Four are in 1st class, and four in 2nd class.

There was of course not much competition, but Shaik Ismail did so excep-
tionally well in Anatomy that I have awarded him a prize. He failed, however,
in English, and should not receive the increased allowance until favorably
reported upon.
The conduct of the students has been generally good. Only 11 punishments
were inflicted during the year upon 8 students, 3 having been punished twice.
The offences for the most part were trifling,—absence from duty, and quarrels
among themselves ; but 4 were fined for rudeness to patients. One third
year's student attempted to draw travelling allowance to which he knew that
he was not entitled, and a second year's student demanded a bribe from him
for concealment. These young men were more severely punished, and their
conduct since has been very good. The offences, I fear, are very venial ones in
their eyes, and were scarcely considered crimes until found out.
The conduct of the first year's students has been very good.
In February 1882 the Teaching Staff of the school was reduced by the
removal of Mr. Jadunath Ghose, the teacher of Anatomy and Surgery.
Extra duties were thus thrown upon Mr. Jadub Kishen Ghose and Mr. Kali
Kishen Ghose, the teacher of Medicine and Materia Medica. To the former I
gave the Surgery class, and to the latter the class of Anatomy. Both have done
entirely to my satisfaction. Mr. Jadub Kishen had before lectured on Surgery,
a n d Mr . K a l i K i s h e n h a d g a i n e d t h e p r i z e f o r A n a t o m y a t t h e C a l c u t t a C o l l e g e .
Both were well fitted for the extra duties, though these were severe,
Thus besides the general supervision of the hospital, Mr. Jadub Kishen
Ghose gave 81 lectures and 35 examinations in Surgery, and 95 lectures and
49 examinations in Medicine.
4
Mr. Kali Kishen Ghose gave―
127 lectures and 30 examinations in Materia Medica.
35 lectures and 10 examinations in Chemistry.
140 lectures and 44 examinations in Anatomy.
40 lectures and 5 examinations in Hygiene, besides dissecting
and demonstrating 13 dead bodies.
Both these officers are zealous, painstaking and intelligent. Mr. Jadub
Kishen retires after 13 years' good and hard work at the school, his services
having been rewarded by his selection as Honorary Assistant Surgeon to the
Viceroy.
No subscriptions have been collected for prizes, the balance in hand being
sufficient to meet the charges for the present year ; but the account cannot be
closed until all disbursements have been made for Watches, Medals, Books, &c.

medical officer could not visit the village before it was too
late for the adoption of prophylactic measures indicates the
limitations under which the department at present works, the
ignorance and indifference of the owners of cattle in outlying
areas, the dilatoriness of village officers, the inadequate nature
of communications and postal arrangements and the exten-
sive area of the present charges of the Veterinary Assistants.
In regard to actual treatment benefit is expected from the
"Serum Simultaneous" method of inoculation which ensures
greater immunity than the "Serum Alone" method and
Government will watch with interest its introduction into the
province.
3. The mortality from Haemorrhagic Septicaemia was
also comparatively heavy despite the fact that 8,125 head of
cattle, or more than double the number of the previous year,
were inoculated after the disease had been microscopically
confirmed in 343 cases. The disease appears almost always
in a sporadic form and until the diagnosis is confirmed no
preventive inoculation can be undertaken. Speedier means
for the adoption of suppressive measures are under the
consideration of the department.
4. The innovation of authorizing the Fair Superin-
tendent to segregate cattle suffering from infectious or
contagious diseases has been attended with encouraging
results at the Singaji Fair in Nimar and the power might be
used more freely in future. The question of the preven-
tion of the spread of epizootic diseases by droves of infected
cattle coming from the Native States still awaits a solution.
5. The number of castrations performed by the Burdizzo
castrator has risen by over 50 per cent to 39,234 which is
more than half as many as in the past five years put together.
Were any further evidence needed of the popularity of this
system, which is everywhere supplanting the primitive and
inhumane method of castration, it would be furnished by the
fact that various zamindars, malguzars and cultivators,
notably in Chhattisgarh, have either singly or jointly presented
several such instruments for the use of Veterinary Assistants.
Government commend this example for imitation in other
parts of the province.
3
6.
Government notices with pleasure that
local
bodies are interesting themselves in veterinary matters and
have provided necessary buildings and equipment.
Apathy
is inexcusable in regard to measures directed to prevent
avoidable loss in perhaps the most important asset of this
preeminently agricultural country.
7. The strength of the staff of Veterinary Assistants has
remained virtually constant for the past 17 years, but the 13
vacancies that occurred during the year were all filled up by
graduates of the Bengal and Madras Veterinary colleges, none
of whom hailed from this province. It is regrettable that in
spite of the annual offer of seven scholarships of the value of
Rs. 30 per mensem tenable at the Bombay Veterinary
College, there is a dearth of suitable local candidates. Out of
35 scholarships offered since 1920-21, only 11 were finally
accepted by residents of the province. If the pay, prospects and
travelling allowance are sufficiently lucrative to attract out-
siders who have qualified at their own expense to join the
department, there is no reason why qualified men bred and
born in the province should not avail themselves in larger
numbers of the facilities offered to seek a career in this
department.
8. The laboratory continues to perform useful func-
tions, and its services are in great demand. The Veterinary
Adviser again comments on the need for a well equipped
laboratory and research institute in which research relating
to problems of local or provincial importance can be carried
out to supplement the work undertaken at the Imperial
Research Institute at Muktesar.
9. Government is glad to see that effective action
towards the prevention of cruelty to animals has been taken
in several districts. It is noticeable, however, that in
none of these cases were the animals sent to the Veterinary
Dispensaries for treatment. Government desires that the
Deputy Commissioners should bring this omission to the
notice of the Magistrates trying such cases.
10. Officers of all ranks in the department had an
unusually trying time in the year under review. Government
thanks Mr. Wilson for the successful administration of the
4
department and also those officers whose names have been
specially brought to its notice.
ORDER.—Ordered that a copy of the Resolution, together
with its encloures, be submitted to the Government of India
in the Department of Education, Health and Lands; that
copies be forwarded to the Veterinary Adviser to Government
and to all Commissioners, and Deputy Commissioners, Central
Provinces and Berar, for information and guidance; and that
it be published in the Supplement to the Central Provinces
Gazette.

2
the Board of Agriculture at Pusa and the examination of the
final year students of the Bengal Veterinary College as
President of the Board of Examiners during the months of

from 6th November 1924.
5. Mr. R. V. Pillai, Temporary Second Superintendent,
Civil Veterinary Department, Central Provinces, held direct
veterinary charge of the Nagpur Civil Division throughout
the year, in addition to his duties in the Laboratory. He
toured in Nagpur, Chanda, Bhandara and Balaghat districts
by road marches and also travelled by rail and inspected all
the 16 dispensaries in his charge and the slaughter-houses at
Bhandara, Wardha, Chanda and Balaghat. He attended the
Agricultural Cattle Shows held at Sindewahi (Chanda district),
Bhandara and Adhartal farm (Jubbulpore) and conducted
propaganda work. He visited the Garhi and Lohara (Ahiri
Court of Wards) cattle-breeding farms and also inspected the
offices of the Veterinary Inspectors, Chanda and Gondia.
6. Mr. Gouri Shankar, Deputy Superintendent, Civil
Veterinary Department, Chhattisgarh Division, toured in the
3 districts of his division and in the Rajnandgaon, Khaira-
garh and Raigarh Feudatory States and inspected 13
dispensaries, twice, the State dispensaries at Rajnandgaon and
Khairagarh, once, and the State dispensary at Raigarh, twice.
He visited the Government cattle-breeding farms at Chand-
khuri, Sarkanda and Ruabanda, the Court of Wards cattle-
breeding farm at Pithora, the Khrishi Gowrakshan farm at
Sakri and the malguzari cattle-breeding farm at Sarora,
Raipur district. He also inspected the slaughter houses in
his circle and attended the District Agricultural Shows and
Exhibitions held at Raipur, Bilaspur, Drug and the show held
by the American mission at Jogidongri near Pendra. He
attended the meetings of the Agricultural associations held
at Bemetara, Balod, Drug, Raipur and Bilaspur.
7. Mr. V. K. Vairagkar, Deputy Superintendent, held
