encouraging. It is expected that in due course this
system of immunization will predominate over all the
others, being very cheap.
17. The total number of animals protected against
rinderpest by the different methods was as follows : —
Serum alone method ...
Goat virus vaccination* ...
Sero-virus method ...
3,516
652,904
1,050
18. Foot-and-mouth disease.—This pest broke out
in 5,462 villages during the year under report, causing
769 deaths, the corresponding figures for the previous
year being 1,725 outbreaks and 144 deaths. The disease
prevailed throughout the province and the Nagpur divi-
sion suffered the most.
19. Haemorrhagic septicaemia.—1,433 [1,124] out-
breaks of haemorrhagic septicaemia were reported during
the year causing a loss of 6,518 [5,211] animals. 253,947
animals were protected with haemorrhagic septicaemia
vaccine, 6,970 with haemorrhagic septicaemia vaccine
and serum (simultaneous method) and 10,118 by serum
alone. The animals in most of the areas affected with
haemorrhagic septicaemia or blackquarter were also
actively immunized by vaccination.
20. Blackquarter.—This disease appeared in 1,154
[177] villages and 4,631 [659] deaths were reported
The disease was very virulent, particularly in the
Nagpur, Berar and Jubbulpore divisions. The inocula-
tions performed are detailed below : —
Serum alone—8,712.
Serum simultaneous—6,392.
Vaccine alone—63,310.
21. Anthrax.—There was a welcome decline in the
incidence of this malady, the outbreaks recorded being
62 against 363 in the previous year. The casualties were
reduced proportionately and fell from 2,231 to 364.
Serum inoculations were carried out in 32 outbreaks and
the number of animals so protected was 4,579.
22. Bovine trypanosomiasis.—Twenty-five outbreaks
of this disease were brought to notice and confirmed
microscopically. Prompt measures in the form of
naganol or tartar emetic injections to animals attacked
*(Including those done by goat virus staff under the Veterinary Investigation
Officer.)
7
and those in contact, combined with hygienic precautions,
were taken to check the disease and only three animals
succumbed in the twenty-five outbreaks.
23. Piroplasmosis.—Four hundred and thirty-seven
cases were confirmed for B. bigeminum and 40,939 trypan
blue injections were given to the clinical cases of piro-
plasmosis. In addition to this Theileria mutans was
detected in 126 smears submitted by the field staff.
24. Coccidiosis.—One hundred and eighty-nine
cases in bovines and 12 in poultry were microscopically
confirmed.
A protozoan parasite known as "Eimeria
Smithi" was found in specimens of faeces from calves for
the first time in this province. It caused very acute
symptoms and occasionally proved fatal.
25. Nasal schistosomiasis (nasal granuloma).—This
affection is known to be prevalent in all the divisions, the
intensity being heaviest in the tracts where numerous
irrigation tanks exist.
The patients were successfully
treated with injections of antimosan of tartar emetic, and
an experiment was conducted at Nagpur to eradicate the
disease by treating the source of infection with copper
sulphate.
Equine Diseases
26. Strangles.—Two cases were confirmed after
microscopical examination and were treated.
27. Surra.—The total mortality amongst equines due
to trypanosomiasis is 82 in 71 outbreaks that were record-
ed during the year under report, and this occurred
chiefly in the Berar division where 48 ponies died in
four affected areas of Amraoti and Akola districts. Try-
panosomes were identified in 77 blood smears submitted
and all the ponies confirmed were injected with naganol
solution.
Canines
28. Piroplasmosis.—P. canis was detected in 38
dogs and P gibsoni in eight, and the patients received
injections of trypan blue and tryparsomide, respectively,
with good results.
29. Distemper.—Fifty-three pups were protected
with anti-distemper vaccine at Jubbulpore and Raipur.
8
30. Rabies.—One pony, three bullocks, and 12
dogs, which were bitten by rabid animals received anti-
rabic treatment at the Civil Veterinary Dispensary at
Nagpur.
Poultry Diseases
31. Fowl cholera was confirmed in 46 birds, and
spirochaetosis in 98. The outbreaks of fowl cholera were
controlled, as in the past, by protecting with fowl cholera
serum, haemorrhagic septicaemia serum, or simultaneous
injections of fowl cholera serum and vaccine, and the total
number of inoculations against the disease was 1,396.
353 fowls were also dosed with sulfarsenol as a prophylac-
tic against spirochaetosis.
32. A brisk programme of immunization was under-
taken against diptheria in poultry and 409 [80] birds
were vaccinated against this malady during the year
under review.
3. MISCELLANEOUS
33. Medico-legal cases.—777 [901] medico-legal
cases were conducted by the staff of the department.
4. HOSPITAL AND DISPENSARIES
34. No new dispensaries were opened during the
year under report; the number remained the same as in
the previous year, namely, 104.
35. The Veterinary Assistant Surgeon on the Rural
Uplift Scheme at Pipariya continued to do propaganda
work.
36. The number of cases treated and castrations
performed at the veterinary dispensaries in the province
was 276,408 [262,697]. In addition to this the number
of cases that were supplied with medicines but not brought
to the dispensaries was 24,603 [8,499]. On tour 750,839
[701,533] cases, including 136,732 [143,152] castrations
were treated by the staff. In addition 15,444 [2,795]
cases were supplied with medicines by the staff on tour.
37. Buildings.—The District Council, Betul, con-
structed new dispensary buildings at Betul during the
year.

5. BREEDING OPERATIONS
38. The noteworthy feature of the year under
report with regard to cattle-breeding operations was the
transfer of the control of Telenkheri, Bod, Pakariya and
Garhi cattle-breeding farms from the Agriculture to the
Veterinary Department with effect from the 1st April
1937. The Extra-Assistant Director, in charge Animal
Husbandry, and his staff were also transferred to this
department.
The strength of the Sahiwal herd of the Telinkheri
farm was 114 [132] and the buffalo herd was 67 [68].
During the year eight Sahiwal cows and 25 buffalo-cows
completed their full lactation period and the average milk
yield per cow worked out at 3,410 [4,137] lbs., while that
of the buffalo herd was 2,837 [3,526] lbs.
During the
year under review only one bull of Sahiwal breed was sold
for breeding purposes.
From the Garhi farm where the Gaolao breed is
maintained, 13 bulls were sold during the year for breed-
ing purposes. At this farm much improvement in lay-
out of the cultivated area was made by levelling old
bandhis and making new ones to check the washing out
of the fertile material. A new area of about two acres of
land below the small tank was brought under cultivation
and clover and oats were raised under irrigation from
the tank.
From the Pakariya farm 22 bulls of Malvi breed
were issued for breeding purposes in the Chhattisgarh
division.
The strength of the herd of the Bod farm at the end
of the year was 358. Seventeen cows, 12 heifers, six bull-
calves and two young calves were sold from the farm.
An improvement in increasing the breeding capacity in
cows has been effected at this farm and the calves dropped
by them now are heavier and bigger in size.
Poultry farm.—The poultry breeding experiments
at Telenkheri made good progress during the year. The
strength of the birds was 475 [400]. During the year 22
improved cocks were distributed in the province.
Fifty-three hens and pullets, eight cocks and 799 eggs for
hatching were sold.
6. PROPAGANDA
For the improvement of the cattle of this province,
District Livestock Associations were formed in each
3
10
district of the province and funds were collected by the
Revenue Department. Sixty-one bulls were purchased
from the Government of India grant and distributed to
the different cattle-breeding centres in the province. In
addition to these 24 bulls were purchased from the Dis-
trict Livestock Association funds.
39. Nine cattle fairs and shows were held in the
different parts of the province and camp veterinary
dispensaries were opened by the staff. Lectures on
veterinary subjects supplemented by practical demon-
stration were delivered with the aid of magic lanterns at
these shows and fairs.
III.—ESTABLISHMENT
40. Subordinate establishment.—The strength of
Veterinary Inspectors during the year was 10. Mr.
Abdul Rahman, Veterinary Inspector, retired from 1st
July 1937. Mr. N. S. Pathak, who was working as
Assistant Marketing Officer, Central Provinces, was
reverted to his substantive post of Veterinary Inspector,
with effect from the 1st December 1937.
41. The strength of the Veterinary Assistant
Surgeons at the close of the year was 142. During the
year one Veterinary Assistant Surgeon was promoted to
the First Grade, eight retired and four resigned.
42. Recruitment.—Nine Veterinary Assistant Sur-
geons were appointed during the year, of whom four
were Central Provinces scholars who graduated from the
Bombay Veterinary College.
43. By the untimely death of Mr. T. S. Dharmale,
second clerk in the office of the Deputy Director of
Veterinary Services, Jubbulpore division, the department
lost a loyal and good worker.
IV.—GENERAL REMARKS
44. The year was not a very healthy one for cattle.
The total number of outbreaks registered during the year
was 10,212 [5,584].
Foot-and-mouth disease reports
were responsible for more than half of the number of
outbreaks. The year was marked for the special mea-
sures taken to combat outbreaks of rinderpest by goat
virus vaccination. The success achieved can be judged
by the great number of vaccinations carried out—653,954,
the highest figure ever reached.
The scheme of goat
11
virus vaccination financed by the Imperial Council of
Agricultural Research ceased to function from the 15th
March 1938. The scheme proved a great success in
establishing that goat virus vaccination is very effective
and a cheaper method than the ordinary serum alone
method.
45. The activities in cattle-breeding side of the de-
partment continued on the same lines as was under
Agriculture Department except in approving a number
of privately owned bulls for breeding purposes.
The
staff was able to emasculate 166,129 scrub bulls.
46. The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to
Animals organization, both in Jubbulpore and Nagpur,
received full support from the department.
47. The number of cases treated in the dispensaries
shows a steady increase—247,011 [238,330]. The same
may be said of cases treated on tour—614,107 [558,381].
Another feature in the year under report was the open-
ing of a number of outlying dispensaries in the interior
to popularize veterinary work. This has received great
appreciation from the public.
48. As usual cattle shows and fairs were attended
by the staff and regular propaganda in the various activi-
ties of the department was carried out.
49. The ever increasing need for a well equipped
and fully staffed Veterinary Laboratory is being felt more
and more every year.
50. The thanks of the department are due to all
Commissioners, Deputy Commissioners, chairmen of
district councils, municipalities and local bodies for all
the help they rendered, without which it would not have
been possible for the staff to achieve the results embodied
in the report under review.
