The hospital work continues to give ample opportunities for clinical instruction.
There has been a slight falling off in the number of cases treated, but that is probably
owing to a healthy year in general for animals.
6. Segregation ward.—During the year there were bad outbreaks of Foot and
Mouth disease and Rinderpest in the city of Madras. Both diseases were of a very
severe type. The College was not able to accommodate more than about one-fourth
of the cases belonging to the large owners of working cattle, v.e., the mills, corpora-
tion, etc. Segregation camps were therefore started under supervision of the College
staff on the owners' premises and in this way the congestion of work in the segregation
ward of the College was relieved.

9. Breeding.—Twenty-six coverings were made by the breeding bull "Tippu"
by the end of December 1913. On the 12th of January 1914 he was reported sick
and was found to be suffering from a very virulent attack of Foot and Mouth disease
from which he eventually recovered, but he has failed to get back to normal condition
and has not been used since.
10. Attendance and discipline.—Good.
11. General.—The additions to the hostel were begun in September 1913 and it
is anticipated that they will be completed in July.
The large tank has been filled in and there now only remains the general
levelling of the compound to be completed.
Resolution—No. 219, dated 1st August 1914.
The Board begs to submit to Government the reports of the Superintendent,
Civil Veterinary Department, and the Principal, Madras Veterinary College, on the
work of the executive and educational branches of the Civil Veterinary Department
respectively for the year 1913-14.

Order—No. 2455, Revenue, dated 25th August 1914.
Miscellaneous.
Recorded.
2. The progress made in the con-
struction of permanent hospitals is still
slow: but work has been begun at Amalapur, Calicut, Erode, Cuddalore, Nellore,
Hindupur and Mangalore, and it is hoped that the buildings will be completed in the
near future. The erection of hospitals at Madanapalle, Nandyal, Salem and Ootaca-
mund has also been sanctioned, but in these cases the Board of Revenue has not yet
sent up plans and estimates, the submission of which should be expedited.
3. As the construction of permanent buildings is necessarily slow and as, more-
over, their erection can only be sanctioned in places where continuous demand for
veterinary treatment is undoubted, the Government in G.O. No. 3589, Revenue, dated
6th December 1913, approved the proposal to open trial dispensaries in hired build-
ings, which, if successful, would, when time and funds should permit, develop into
hospitals with permanent buildings.
This scheme, the Government are glad to note, met with a ready response from
local boards.
4. The number of cases treated at the existing hospitals and particularly by the
itinerant assistants exhibits a gratifying increase, and the work at the Veterinary
College continued to improve.
5. The Government await the reports which the Board proposes in paragraphs
6 and 9 of its proceedings with reference to the method of combating outbreaks of
rinderpest and the need for the appointment of a second superintendent. The appoint-
ment of a deputy director of agriculture for stock-farming purposes to which reference
is made in paragraph 8, has been unavoidably delayed owing to the difficulty of
securing an officer with the requisite qualifications. Mr. Ware's proposal to prepare
and distribute veterinary leaflets in rural tracts has the approval of Government.
6. Finally, the Government desire to express their appreciation of the work
accomplished by the officers of the department during the year under review.

The Board begs to submit to Government the reports of the Superintendent,
Civil Veterinary Department, and the Principal, Madras Veterinary College, on the
work of the executive and the educational branches respectively of the Civil Veteri-
nary Department for the year 1914-15.
2. Mr. Aitchison was in charge of the college during the greater part of the
year. He was deputed to Europe towards the close of October 1914 in charge of
the Madras War Fund horses and was away on this duty for nearly three months.
During this period Mr. Pool acted as Principal. Mr. Ware held the office of
Superintendent, Civil Veterinary Department, throughout the year, but was absent
from this Presidency for about a month from the middle of September 1914 on
special duty in connection with the purchase of horses from the Madras War Fund.
Touring and inspection by the Superintendent as well as by the Deputy Superin-
tendent were satisfactory.
3. The Madras Veterinary College.—The total strength of the three classes in the
college at the end of December 1914 was 51 ; of these, nearly 75 per cent. were
Brahmans. Twelve students graduated from the college during the year, the per-
centage of successful candidates at the final examination being 75 against 85.7

The selection of candidates for admission into class A for the year 1915-16 was
held on the 5th January 1915. Government having sanctioned in their order No. 2864,
Press, dated 2nd October 1914, that the number forming the class should now be
increased from 20 students to 30 and correspondingly increasing the number of
stipends, 45 students were selected, consisting of 1 B.A., 2 matriculates and 42
school-final men. Of these the 1 graduate and 12 of the school-final candidates
never attended college and 2 more have been permitted to resign. There were three
students who had failed their first professional in December 1914. Therefore the
class at the end of March 1915 consisted of 33 students.
4. Professional examinations.—The annual professional examinations were
conducted from the 14th to the 19th December 1914 both days inclusive. The Board
of Examiners was constituted by the same members as in the previous year as
follows :—
President.
Lt.-Col. A. Smith, I.C.V.D., Principal, Bengal Veterinary College.
Members.
1. Mr. K. Hewlett, I.C.V.D., Principal, Bombay Veterinary College.
2. Mr. F. Ware, I.C.V.D., Superintendent, Civil Veterinary Department,
Madras.

The Board of Examiners considered the results were satisfactory but remarked
that " there was a tendency for the students at this college to neglect the practical
side of their profession and that they were somewhat weak in the handling of
animals ". In connection with this remark, the Report of the Board of Examiners
would have been more complete if the Board had embodied in it a remark to the effect,
that during the year the teaching staff had been a lecturer short for over two months,
that the Assistant Principal had been on sick and privilege leave for six months, the
Principal absent on deputation for two months and pointed out that the practical classes
taken by these officers had been carried on by new lecturers in their absence.
