against contagious diseases. To carry this out, additional staff is
urgently required for propaganda, inoculation, and township and border
patrol work.
Inspection Posts and Inoculation Stations.—The inspection post at
Htaukkyan was closed at the end of the year as it had served its
purpose in providing the information necessary for carrying out an
extended scheme for control of disease in trade cattle in the Province
and on importation over land frontiers. This system of inspection,
combined with inoculation against Rinderpest, will require to be
developed in the future to prevent entrance into and spread of disease
in the Province. Suitable sites for such stations will be investigated
during the coming year.
Cattle Improvement.—A scheme for cattle improvement (working
cattle) was prepared and submitted for approval to Government during
the year. This consisted of provisions for the breeding of stud bulls,
under open grazing conditions on a large farm in the cattle breeding
area of the Province, and their distribution to special village-tracts
where village bulls could be eliminated and breeding cows of good
quality were available. From these subsidiary areas, grade bulls would
be produced for distribution to village centres for stock improvement
work.
Arrangements on these or similar lines are now urgently required to
stem the degeneration of the Burmese working cattle by indiscriminate
crossing with Indian milking breeds, such as the Hanaria, now being
widely practised in areas near the larger towns throughout Burma.
This work should have been commenced many years ago while there
were still many areas where Burmese cattle existed in comparative
purity. It is now becoming difficult to find such areas and the danger
of losing this excellent breed of plough cattle is increasing annually.
This work of cattle improvement is considered to be the most
important section of Rural Reconstruction so far as this Department is
concerned.
Development of Research.—Too much stress cannot be laid on this
section of Veterinary activities in this Province. The work done at Insein
in connection with vaccine production has been the foundation on which
the Department has grown during the last few years and much research
work on Foot-and-Mouth and Rinderpest in buffaloes and other
problems still remains to be done.
Extension of the area available for Research and increase of
Research workers are indicated for the immediate future, if this
Institute is to fulfil its obligations to the Field staff of the Department
and through them, its duty to the cattle owners of the Province.

REPORT OF THE CIVIL VETERINARY DEPARTMENT, BURMA,
FOR THE YEAR ENDING THE 31ST MARCH 1938.
Concluding Remarks.—The assistance given by District officers
during the year was very much appreciated by the staff of the Depart-
ment. The efficiency of the work of disease prevention is very
markedly affected by the interest taken in Veterinary problems in the
districts and townships by these officers who by their advice and
presence are able to influence cattle owners to comply with requirements
of the Departmental officers for control of disease in the area.
The work of the officers of the Department has been very good
during the year and the reduction in preventable contagious diseases
which this report indicates is largely due to their zeal and efficient
work.
The cost of the Department during 1937-38 was Rs. 5,63,009, an
increase of Rs. 47,793 only over the cost for the previous year.
D. T. MITCHELL.
Dated 12th August 1938.
Director of Veterinary Services, Burma.
