The decrease of expenditure is due to the abolition of the posts of a large
number of paid vaccinators owing to the introduction of the licensed system
of vaccination in Angul and to the saving effected in the pay of the Deputy
Sanitary Commissioners, no officer having been appointed to the Metropolitan
and Northern Bengal circles for the greater part of the years 1897-98 and
1898-99.

GENERAL ADMINISTRATION.
Preface.
The districts over which the operations of the Department extend are the
same as last year and are shown in light red on the map which accompanies this
report. Some slight rearrangement of the charges of officers has been rendered
necessary by the creation of the new Province of Eastern Bengal and Assam.
2. The forms accompanying the report having now been in existence for a
whole year contain more complete information than it was possible to show in
them last year.
3. Colonel J. W. A. Morgan has been in charge of the office of Inspector-
General during the whole of the year except for one month and nineteen days,
when Major H. T. Pease officiated for him.

100. The following papers were published by Doctor A. Lingard, the Im-
perial Bacteriologist, during the year under report :—
(i) Through what agency is the Trypanosoma evansi carried from one
Surra season to another, in the Journal of Tropical Veterinary
Science, Volume I, Part I.
(ii) A new species of trypanosoma found in the blood of rats, together
with a new method of standardising the measurements of Trypan-
osomata, in the Journal of Tropical Veterinary Science, Volume I,
Part I.
(iii) Ocular Filariæ of Equines and Bovines, in the Journal of Tropical
Veterinary Science, Volume I, Part 2.
(iv) Note on Hæmorrhagic Septicæmia.
The Assistant Bacteriologist, Mr. Montgomery, has also published
(v) Observations on Bilharziosis among animals in India.
And Captain Baldrey, who has spent a summer vacation working there, has
published
(vi) Some observations on normal and Rinderpest blood, both in the
Journal of Tropical Veterinary Science.
101. Table XV.—Continued progress has been made in every department
of work carried out in this Institution. The classes for Veterinary Officers have
been continued, and four Officers have taken the course and passed out. Two
courses of 60 lectures were given, as well as practical classes in Pathology,
Bacteriology and Serum Therapeutics. In order to ensure good results an exami-
nation is now obligatory, so that an opinion can be formed as to the qualifications
of the various men. In addition, sixty-one Veterinary Inspectors and Assistants
have been trained in inoculation work during the year.
102. Research.—In addition to the preparation of serum, research work
has been carried out on the following diseases :—
(i) Rinderpest.
(ii) Piroplasmosis, Trypanosomiasis and Malignant œdema complicating
Rinderpest.
(iii) Anthrax.
(iv) Hæmorrhagic Septicæmia.
(v) Surra.
(vi) Charbon Symptomatique.
(vii) Dourine.
103. Foot and mouth disease among newly bought cattle caused much
inconvenience during the past twelve months, appearing in December 1905 and
March 1906, and stopping the preparation of serum to some extent. Fortunate-
ly, however, suitable arrangements had been made for the preparation of anti-
rinderpest serum, so that this was continued notwithstanding the fact that Foot
and Mouth was prevalent in batches of animals received from December 1905
to March 1906. It is practically impossible to avoid the contamination of newly
bought cattle, as the roads in Kumaon are for the greater part of the year in-
fected with Foot and Mouth disease. It is satisfactory to note that by careful
antiseptic and other precautions, the disease has been kept out of the Labora-
tory estate.
104. Sera preparation.—The following sera were prepared :—Anti-rinder-
pest, Anthrax and Anti-Hæmorrhagic Septicæmia. Numerous experiments
have been made with a view to ascertaining the simplest and most efficient
