(2) For any measure for the prevention of biting to be effective in controlling
the disease, it must be directed against the biting of other dogs.
(3) Measures which prevent the biting of human beings, though of great
importance, have no effect in controlling the disease unless they pre
-
vent the biting of other dogs also. For example, tying up is ineffective
if other dogs can approach and be bitten by the tied up dog.

(5) For every dog in a community which is known to have been bitten by
a rabid dog there are probably many others which have been bitten,
of whose identity we are ignorant.

(7) Consequently for muzzling to be an efficient measure for the control of
rabies in a community it must be generally applied in that com
-
munity.
THE INCREASING NUMBER OF PATIENTS.
If one admits then that these facts concerning the prevalence of rabies,
deduced from the statistics of the European population, can be taken as an indi
-
cation of what is occurring amongst the people as a whole, that is to say, if one
accepts the premise that rabies is not on the increase in India, then one must accept
the conclusion that the anti-rabic Institutes in this country have not as yet fully
satisfied the necessities of the Indian people. The accompanying tables and charts
show how great has been the increase of persons coining to this Institute since its
inauguration.
It might be argued that such an increase was due to reduction in the risk
incurred by the average patient: that a larger number of persons were treated who
ran no risk at all. But this is not borne out by the figures given in the following
table :—
Mean number of wounds per patient.

It would seem then that the increase is mainly due to the gradual spread of
knowledge regarding the treatment of the disease as carried out in the Pasteur
Institutes, and to the increasing facilities afforded by Government of obtaining

access to that treatment. We are then, as an Institute, in a position to consider the
future, its demands, and the measures necessary to meet them. It may be asked
whether in any one area or province, we are nearing the limit of the necessity of
the people. That is a difficult question to answer. In the case of the Punjab
the rate of increase has fallen off during the last 3 years, and it may be that a limit
will shortly be attained. But a similar falling off occurred during the years
1909–11 which was not maintained, and it may be that the present levelling is
illusory. No falling off of any practical significance has occurred in the other
provinces.
From the figures of all India it would appear that the increase of 605 (1913–14)
is likely to continue for a few years at least.
An Institute has just been opened in Burma, but this will hardly affect us at all,
as during 1914 only 94 patients came from that province.
URGENT REQUIREMENTS.
Omitting patients from Burma the estimated number of patients for 1915
is 5,076. The average number treated daily will be 195. For purposes of
accommodation, however, the number of wealthier patients must be excluded, and
the number of attendants must be added. It has been found that accommodation
is necessary for a number corresponding to about 68% (say 2/3) of the number of
patients under treatment.
So for 1915 the average number to be accommodated will be 130 (not allowing
for fluctuations, which are about±20 %). To satisfy this demand there are 27
available quarters. These measure 10' x10' and are suitable for 3 occupants. It
is obvious that to meet the demands of the current year alone, a considerable
increase in the number of quarters is urgently required and allowing for fluctuations
in the influx of patients, the number to be erected should not be less than 24.
SANITARY PROPAGANDISM.
When one remembers that about 5,000 persons, of all estates, and drawn from
all parts of India, reside in our lines during the year, and that each of these remains
for a period of 14 days, it is obvious that every endeavour should be made
to make their stay as fruitful as possible. Scattering, as they do to all parts of the
peninsula, they must carry in their minds recollections of what they have seen and
heard. If they have seen bad sanitation, that is the picture which they will carry
with them. But if they have experienced the comforts of clean living, carried out in
12
a way which is applicable to their own home and village life, then a useful lesson will
have been taught. The present site of the patients' quarters is completely occupied,
but a new site is available on which we can carry out our further extensions. If
this is agreed to, every endeavour will be made to develop a new village on model
lines, and we propose to reinforce this object-lesson, by weekly talks on elementary
village sanitation.
