No. 2642, REVENUE, 30TH AUGUST 1911.
much more help is needed from such officials as Tahsildars and Revenue Inspectors,
who, during their tours of inspection, might do a great deal to increase the popu-
larity and advertise the existence of the Veterinary Assistant.
4. There is still a great deal to be. done in the way of expanding the depart-
ment both as regards the institution of more hospitals and the posting of more
itinerating men to each district. At the end of the year under report there were
still ten districts without a veterinary hospital of any description, although in four of
these the question of starting one was under consideration. Each district is now
supplied with at least one itinerating man, but one is not sufficient for any but the
very smallest districts, and for large districts like Vizagapatam, Gódávari, Kistna,
etc., at least three men are required. The demand for veterinary graduates in this
Presidency is therefore likely to exceed the supply for some time to come, and it is
to be hoped that every effort will be made to attract matriculates to the college for
training, as great difficulty has been experienced during the last four years in getting
students with sufficient education to enable them to qualify as competent Veterinary
Assistants.

(a) This includes
(1) Pay of the Principal with local allowance, exchange compensation allowance and house-rent.
(2) Pay of the Assistant Principal and lecturers.
(3) Pay and famine batta of the gymnasium instructor.
(b) This includes all expenses of the college and hospital except the amount given in column 16. It is impossible to give separate
figures for the college from those of the hospital.
(c) It has been found on actual comparison that the figures furnished by the Accountant-General under the several detailed headings
are not always correct. In some case expenses under one head have been shown under a different head. The present figures have been
taken from the bills of this office.
