There has been a decrease of work in Anantapur, Chingleput, Coimbatore,
Salem, Tanjore and Vizagapatam.
The principal reasons given for this decrease are:—(1) Additional work in
connection with the census ; (2) the time which had to be spent in learning to
operate with lanoline paste ; (3) prevalence of influenza and cholera.
The Chingleput deputies report that the work in their ranges has fallen short
partly on account of the stoppage of extra remuneration to vaccinators. In
Tanjore the minimum required from vaccinators was reduced.
The diminution in the percentage of success from 95.9 in 1889-90 to 94.5 in
1890-91. appears to be principally due to the low percentage of success obtained
with lanoline vaccine.

during 1890-91:—
