unsatisfactory. They will also inspect the books and returns of the Assist-
ant Superintendents, advising the District Superintendent in which parts of
his district vaccination work appears to be languid, and reporting as to the
results of their inspections, percentage of success, state of arms and vesicle, &c.
They will endeavour to inspect as many districts in their circles as possible
during their winter tours, directing most attention to those districts—
(i) in which the District Superintendent is not permitted to go on
tour;
(ii) in which vaccination is backward ;
(iii) in which, for special reasons, the District Superintendent of Vacci-
nation may have to restrict his tours; and
(iv) the outlying parts of which cannot commonly be reached by the
District Superintendent within the limits of his 10 days' tour.
(b) Duties of the District Superintendent of Vaccination.
(i) District Superintendents of Vaccination (Civil Surgeons of
districts) perform practically the same duties as the Deputy Sanitary Com-
missioners within their own districts, in as far as their duties as Civil
Surgeon and Superintendent of Jail of the district permit. They will go on
tour and camp in their districts, as laid down in paragraph 3, Resolution
No. 412/V—267B-12, dated Naini Tál, the 23rd September 1893, for six or
eight weeks, and inspect the work of the Assistant Superintendents and
vaccinators.
(ii) They will see that no bovine or animal lymph depôts shall
be established, or maintained, or change of control occur, without the
previous sanction of the Sanitary Commissioner. The depôts shall be
organized and superintended by the Deputy Sanitary Commissioner of the
circle.
(iii) The District Superintendent of Vaccination of each district
will indent for a map, upon which he should mark off with a dotted line
each vaccination circle in his district.
(iv) They will see that each circle of vaccination includes, on
an average a population of 60,000, which, allowing for deaths and sickness,
will yield each season, roughly, about 2,000 children fit or available for
vaccination, a number well within the power of a single skilled vaccinator.
(v) They will see that each vaccinator operates in his own
circle only, and never leaves it during the season, without permission, for
any purpose whatever. But he shall aid other vaccinators whenever called
upon to do so.
(vi) The average number of operations which a skilled vacci-
nator can perform is 2,000, and it will be found in practice that the circles
vary in population, and active and able vaccinators should be appointed
to the more populous circles.
(vii) They will see that probationers of respectable antecedents
and eligible to be brought on the list as enrolled Government servants,
are encouraged to come forward, and one or two kept in readiness in each
district to take the place of men reported sick or absent from any cause.
No sanction to vaccinate should be given except to a person qualified in
all respects as an enrolled vaccinator.
(viii) Vaccinators will be appointed by District Superintendents
of vaccination.
(ix) They will impress on every vaccinator that his promotion
will depend, not only on the quantity and quality of his work, but his
conduct among the people.
(x) No vaccinator should be attached to the camp of local
