and Montgomery, and carried off almost 8,000 animals in the province as com-
pared with 4,000 last year. There was also a large rise in the deaths from
hæmorrhagic septicæmia, and black-quarter destroyed over 1,100 animals. A
vigorous campaign of preventive inoculation, attended by a considerable measure
of success, was carried on against the three diseases last mentioned, the number
of animals so treated rising from fifty-seven to one hundred and ten thousand.
The Lieutenant-Governor is glad to see that the agricultural population is
beginning to appreciate the value of scientific treatment, and thinks that the
increased confidence in the department reported by Captain Walker is most
creditable both to his supervision and to the tact and good work of his subordi-
nate staff.
9 There has been an increase of five in the number of hospitals at work,
and the total number is now seventeen. It is satisfactory to observe that the
Chief Superintendent anticipates that in a few years the province will be amply
provided with properly equipped dispensaries. The number of animals treated
by the Department has increased by 40 per cent. during the year under review.
10. The breeding operations call for no remark beyond the statement of
the fact that the supply of donkey stallions still remains considerably below the
requirements of the Province.
11. Sir Denzil Ibbetson considers that the progress of the Department
has been well maintained during the year under review, and wishes to record his
appreciation of the excellent work done by Captain Walker. He also desires now
that Major Pease has finally left the Lahore Veterinary College, to express his
high appreciation of the admirable work done by Major Pease during his long
connection with that institution, and of the high standard of efficiency to which
he assisted by an admirable staff, both European and Indian, succeeded in
raising it.
ORDER.—Ordered that a copy of the Report and of the above remarks be
submitted to the Government of India in the Department of Revenue and Agri-
culture, and the Inspector General of Civil Veterinary Department in India; also
that the remarks be published in the Punjab Government Gazette and com-
municated to the Director of Agriculture, Punjab.
By order of His Honour the Lieutenant-Governor,
E. D. MACLAGAN,
Chief Secretary to Government, Punjab.

FROM
L. FRENCH, ESQUIRE, C. S.,
Officiating Director of Agriculture, Punjab,
To
THE HON'BLE MR. E. D. MACLAGAN, C.S.,
Chief Secretary to Government, Punjab.
Dated the
July 1907.
SIR,
I have the honour to submit the annual combined Report on the Punjab
Veterinary College and the Provincial Civil Veterinary Department for the year
1906-07.
2. Following the precedent of last year the Principal of the College has
written Part I and the Chief Superintendent, Civil Veterinary Department, Parts
II to IV. The Preface and Parts V and VI embody my remarks. In accord-
ance with the suggestions made by His Honour the Lieutenant-Governor in the
review of last year's Report, all the Appendices have been eliminated, their salient
features being incorporated in the text of the Report. It has, however, been
thought advisable to exclude the figures of the old Appendix C from Table V
(which refers entirely to hospitals and dispensaries under the Chief Superin-
tendent, Civil Veterinary Department), and to discuss them in the Principal's
Report.
I have the honour to be,
SIR,
Your most obedient servant,
L. FRENCH,
Officiating Director of Agriculture, Punjab
ANNUAL REPORT
ON THE
CIVIL VETERINARY ADMINISTRATION
IN THE
PUNJAB.
FOR THE YEAR 1906-07.
PREFACE.
A.—THE PUNJAB VETERINARY COLLEGE.
Work done during the
year.
1. The year has been an uneventful though a busy one. The increase
in newly admitted students from 86 to 118 is con-
siderable; and the total number remaining under tuition
throughout the year was 259 as compared with 209 last year. The general
demand for our graduates has been steadily maintained; though, as suggested
last year, it will in all probability slacken off in the near future.
Complement of the Ex-
amining Board.
2. The question of adding a fourth member to the Board of Examiners to
which the Principal refers in paragraph 20 of his Report is
now under consideration by the Inspector-General, Civil
Veterinary Department.
The proposed hostel, &c.
3. The proceedings for the acquisition of the sites required for the hostel
and new anatomical room are still incomplete, a refer-
ence having been made to the Civil Court. Consequently no
progress under this head can be reported.
Income, expenditure, &c.
4. The accounts exhibit increases both in income and expenditure, which
are generally explained in paragraphs 24 and 25 below.
The recovery of outstanding items has recently formed the
subject of correspondence between the Principal and myself. Steps are being
taken to reduce the uncollected balance. Very few bad debts have eventually to
be written off. As regards the income and expenditure of the canine ward I have
ascertained that the total receipts of Rs. 987 exceed the disbursements by Rs. 144.
The institution has thus become self-supporting. The number of in-door patients
has been limited by the accommodation available. A proposal for a small increase
in the attendance establishment has recently been submitted to Government.
There is a nett increase of Rs. 252 in the total amount held at the College in
scholarships and stipends.
The question of appointing
an efficient farrier.
5. The Principal has not referred in the body of his Report to the
measures taken towards securing a first-class farrier for the
shoeing forge. While the number of horses shod at the
College in the year under report has expanded from 1,260 to 1,415, resulting in
an increased income of Rs. 1,583 as compared with Rs. 1,484 last year, efforts
have not been spared to secure a really efficient farrier. A large number of
officers of the Cavalry, Supply and Transport Corps and Army Veterinary Corps
have been addressed on the subject; but the replies have been most discourag-
ing. Only two or three men in all have been recommended: and the qualifica-
tions of these all proved unsatisfactory. It is, I fear, useless to hope to secure a
good native farrier from a Native Cavalry Regiment. Such a man is only trained
with great care and trouble, and is then much too valuable an asset to be lightly
surrendered. A good European farrier is also very rare, and his appointment
would be surrounded by difficulties. It is questionable whether he could do hard
work in a Lahore forge during the hottest months; and a man of this class has
not usually a temperament which he can adapt to his environments at the
10
Services of stallions.
Table XI.
60. Five horses and 55 ponies were actually employed at stud work during
the year. The average number of mares covered was 42
per horse and 46 per pony. 52 donkey stallions covered
an average of 51 mares each. As mentioned last year the services of the newly
purchased animals were limited in some cases, and this has brought down the
average somewhat.
Food and keep of stal-
lions. Table XII.
61. The average cost of the feed and keep of stallions for the year under
report was as follows:—Rs. 273 per horse, Rs. 256 per
pony and Rs. 160 per donkey stallion. These figures have
been obtained from the Districts which maintain the stallions.
Collection of statistics.
62. The new system of collecting statistics has not been working long
enough to report as to its success or otherwise. If tabulated
results of coverings are to be given in future it is necessary
to prescribe a new table in order to show them
(3).—FAIRS AND SHOWS.
Fairs and Shows. Tables
XIII and XIV.
63. Certain statistical information regarding the Horse and Cattle Fairs
held in the Province is given in Tables XIII and XIV. That
in respect to Horse Fairs applies to non-selected Districts
only.
Horse Shows.
64. At Delhi, Karnal and Ambala Horse Shows prizes and medals were
given from Imperial funds. I attended them all and also
those at Muzaffargarh and Gulu Shah. Mr. Woodley attended
Gurdaspur and Mr. Gaiger Jullundur. Separate reports regarding each were
submitted.
A revised schedule and rules were drawn up by me for Horse Shows in
non-selected Districts, and received the approval of the Local Government, and the
Inspector-General, Civil Veterinary Department.
Cattle Shows.
65. Imperial grants for prizes and medals were given at the following
Cattle Shows:—Hissar (spring), Jahazgarh, Lyallpur, Lidbari,
Choa Saidan Shah and Jallalabad. I attended Jahazgarh,
Lyallpur and Jallalabad and Mr. Woodley Choa Saidan Shah; and we
submitted reports on each. The extended period for which the Imperial grant
was given has now expired and the question of its continuance or otherwise has to
be considered.
A grant of Rs. 250 to the Sargodha Cattle Show was given by the
Local Government and medals from the same source were awarded at Sargodha
(2), Delhi (1), Karnal (1), Ambala (2), Ludhiana (1), Jhang (2), Amritsar (1) and
Gulu Shah (2). It is doubtful if the giving of these medals is much incentive
to cattle breeding.
I attended the Cattle Shows at Jahazgarh, Lyallpur,
Jallalabad, Jhang, Multan, Muzaffargarh, Gulu Shah, Eminabad, Amritsar (2),
Delhi, Karnal and Ambala. Mr. Woodley attended Choa Saidan Shah, Sargodha
and Gurdaspur and Mr. Gaiger attended Jullundur.
Separate reports were
submitted concerning each.
