Remarks by the Honourable the Agent to the Governor General in
Rajputana.
1 The year was noticeable for a fairly wide-spread epidemic of cholera
in the hot weather months, and for the commencement of a plague
epidemic in Ajmer-Merwara at the close of the year.
2. The death-rate in Ajmer-Merwara exceeded the birth-rate for the first
time since 1910-11.
The high death rate in this district, which is attributable to the
prevalence of malaria, has not been equalled since 1911-12.
3. The remarks made by the Chief Medical Officer, Rajputana, in
paragraph 37 of the Report will be brought to the notice of the
Ajmer Municipality through the Commissioner.
4. The points mentioned in the first paragraph of my remarks on the
Report for 1915 are under the attention of the Ajmer Municipality.
REPORT
ON
SANITATION, DISPENSARIES, AND JAILS IN
RAJPUTANA FOR 1916
AND ON
VACCINATION FOR THE YEAR 1916-17.
SECTION I.—SANITATION AND VACCINATION.
METEOROLOGY AND ITS RELATION TO FOOD SUPPLY.
Rainfall in Ajmer.
1. During the year under report the rainfall of Ajmer was 28.30 inches,
against 14.35 inches in 1915. It provided
sufficient water in all the tanks and wells
throughout the district.
Rainfall in Native States.
2. The rainfall recorded in Rajputana generally was unusually heavy, and
practically continuous from the beginning
of July to the end of September. Almost
all the tanks throughout the province filled rapidly: with the unfortunate
result that the bunds of many were breached. However, on the whole there
was an ample water supply ; and the ground water level in the wells rose con-
siderably. In Jaisalmer 12.93 inches of rain were registered, against 4.7
inches in 1915 : and in Bikaner 21.10 inches, against 6.58. The Kharif
crops were mostly good, and grass has been fairly abundant. The Rabi crops
are very satisfactory.
VITAL STATISTICS, BIRTHS AND DEATHS.
Births in Ajmer-Merwara.
3. According to the birth returns, 19,398 births were registered in Ajmer-
Merwara in 1916, against 21,953 in 1915 ;
a decrease of 2,555.
4. Of the total births registered 10,115 were males and 9,283 females.
The birth rate was 38.68 per mille of population, against 43.78 per mille in the
previous year. The percentage of male to female births was 108.96, as com-
pared with 113.53 in 1915.
Deaths in Ajmer-Merwara.
5. During the year 20,296 deaths were registered in this division, against
13,052 in 1915; an increase of 7,244;
due to all causes of deaths, including
epidemic diseases; with the exception of " Injuries," and, especially, of " Snake
bite or killed by wild beasts." The death rate per mille of population was
40.48 against 26.03 in the previous year.
6. The mortality from Small-pox was 705, against 3 in 1915 ; an increase
of 702. The disease appeared in January—which is earlier than usual—and
was widespread and persistent. It was most fatal in April, when 167 deaths
were reported. The mortality among children under five years of age was 57
per cent. of the total deaths; against 55 per cent. in 1915.
7. The total number of deaths from " Fevers " was 15,350, against 10,585 in
1915. The term "Fevers" is very indefinite. No doubt the large increase
under this heading was due in large measure to a greater amount of malaria
consequent on the generous rainfall ; most probably, augmented by undiagnosed
cases of Cholera, Measles, Small-pox and other infectious and contagious
diseases.
8. The percentage of male to female deaths was 106.45, against 110.45 in
1915.
9. The mortality from bowel diseases was 851, as compared with 459 in
the previous year ; an increase of 392 ; accounted for by the heavy rainfall.

VITAL STATISTICS AND SANITATION IN RAJPUTANA.

42. The covered drains in various parts of the city are still in need of
improvement.
Water supply.
43. On account of good rains the Foy Sagar filled well and gave a good
supply of water to Ajmer from the advent
of last monsoon onward, which admitted
of the new water-supply of Bhaonta being given a rest.
44. The wells in the city and suburbs are well filled.
45. The improvement of the Municipal meat market is under consideration.
46. Beawar.—The supply of drinking water in the Jalia Tank, which ran
very low before last rains, is now ample for the whole year.
47. The Sanitary arrangements are much in the same condition as in
1915.
Village sanitation, Ajmer-Merwara.
48. The Commissioner, Ajmer-Merwara, reports that rules for the improve¬
ment of village sanitation were restricted
to the same villages as last year. On
the whole, the rules have worked satisfactorily; but in the villages in the
Beawar and Todgarh Tehsils the local officials have been very lax in enforcing
them.
NATIVE STATES.
49. Jaipur.—The City Conservancy Tramway continued to work through-
out the year. Special arrangements for extra labour and cartage had to be
made from time to time to ensure the quick removal of an irregular supply of
extra quantities of foul earth and sweepings sometimes brought in.
50. The bulk of the foul earth and sweepings were deposited in the Ganda
Nallah ; a small amount was utilised for filling pits in some cultivators'
fields. Rubbish and city sweepings were burnt in furnaces in the city to save
the expense of carriage.
51. 67 latrines were newly constructed, and 190 old latrines were
repaired.
52. Jaipur has an excellent drinking water supply obtained from a series
of wells in a river-bed and pumped through pipes to the city.
53. There are also good wells, which are under supervision.
54. Jodhpur.—Owing to scanty rains last year, much scarcity of water
existed in various parts of the State; but since the arrival of last monsoon
the water-supply has been very satisfactory ; and all the tanks and wells in
Jodhpur City and in the districts are well filled.
55. Bikaner.—The sanitation of the city is in the charge of the Muni-
cipality, of which the Director, Medical Department, is a member, and Presid-
ent of the Sanitary Committee.
56. Kotah.—The following main improvements have been made in the
conservancy arrangements for the Kotah City :—
(1) A stone urinal was erected and 2 new galvanised moveable urinals

VITAL STATISTICS IN NATIVE STATES.
58. Udaipur.—The Sanitation of the City is said not to be satisfactory
nor under proper control. The conservancy arrangements are under the
supervision of the Police. The conservancy staff is inadequate.
59. The Sanitary arrangements in Alwar, Bharatpur City, and in Jhalra-
patan Town and Chaoni are looked after by their respective Municipalities
and are fairly good.
VACCINATION.
STATEMENT I.
60. In Ajmer-Merwara, including Nasirabad Cantonment, the number
of Primary. Vaccinations during 1916-17 was 17,823, against 17,393 in
1915-16, and Re-vaccinations 2,011 against 262 in the previous year : the
increase under both the heads was mainly due to a small-pox epidemic in
this division.
61. The number of vaccinators was 15, and one Native Superintendent, the
same as in the previous year. Vaccinator Lala Swaroop Narain was appointed
on probation for six months as Native Superintendent on 17th August, 1916,
in place of Pandit Ram Chander, who was placed on pension list.
62. Each vaccinator performed an average of 1,295 operations against
1,177 operations in 1915-16; and the cost of each successful case was 34
pies, against 38 pies in the previous year.
63. The Civil Surgeon, Ajmer, inspected 1,257 vaccinated children against
2,137 in 1915-16, of which 1,181 were found successful. The Superintendent
of Vaccination at Nasirabad examined 701 children, of which 694 were found
successful.
64. The Native Superintendent inspected 205 villages against 455 in the
previous year : and examined 3,920 vaccination operations, as compared with

65. 35.14 per thousand of the population in Ajmer-Merwara were success¬
fully vaccinated, against 33.44 in 1915-16.
66. Vaccination in Ajmer-Merwara is not satisfactory; many infants
remain unvaccinated, the parents concealing or refusing to produce them. The
matter is engaging attention with a view to improving the state of affairs.
General operations in Native States.
67. The Vaccination Returns from the Native States show a falling-off
in numbers during the season under report.
The average total number of Primary
successful vaccinations in Native States was 239,196, against 264,123 in 1915-16.
Successful re-vaccination rose from 256 in 1915-16 to 731 in 1916-17.
68. There were 163 Vaccinators, against 162 in the previous year; one less
in Bharatpur and one additional vaccinator in Sirohi and Shahpura,
respectively. In Deoli Cantonment vaccinations were done by the Sub-
Assistant Surgeon attached to the Agency Hospital there, as usual.
69. In the Marwar State, 98 Primary Vaccinations were performed by Sub-
Assistant Surgeons in Dispensary towns and 181 vaccinations by the Sub-
Assistant Surgeon, Sirohi.

which 492 proved successful, a remarkably low percentage.
71. 22 74 per thousand of the population in the Native States were suc-
cessfully vaccinated against 25.05 in 1915-16.

with
Rs. 35,011-9-8, a decrease of Rs. 1,698-9-11
on all heads of expenditure. The average cost of each successful vaccination
in different States varied from 17 pies in Kotah to 16.8 pies in Jaisalmer.

75. 2,389 vaccinated children were inspected by the Assistant Surgeon
at Kotah ; and 795 by the Assistant Surgeon in charge of the Agency Surgeon's
office, Eastern Rajputana States at Bharatpur. The officiating State Surgeon
of Alwar inspected 1,380 vaccinations.
76. The Native Superintendents of Vaccinations and other inspecting
officers in Native States inspected 94,591 vaccinations against 108,006 in
1915-16. The percentage of inspected cases found successful among the total
number seen in 1916-17 was 98.69, against 98.92 in 1915-16. The dimi-
nution in the number of vaccinations performed and of those inspected by
Native Superintendents suggests that this state of affairs is due to the with-
drawal of the driving power of so many Residency and Agency Surgeons on
account of the War.
77. Lymph is kept up throughout the year in most of the important States
by arm-to-arm vaccination ; glycerinated vaccine lymph was obtained during
the year from the Government Bovine Lymph Depôts and was generally
satisfactory.
78. The Residency Surgeon, Jaipur, writes that it is hoped the entire
vaccination work some day may be carried on with the lymph manufactured
in the Laboratory and arm-to-arm vaccination system ultimately stopped.
