27TH JUNE 1895, No. 407, REVENUE.
packing quinine was communicated only in February last, and that orders were there-
upon issued to the Superintendent, Government Press, to have the necessary number
of covers manufactured and transmitted to the Director's office at Ootacamund "
a very early date." The Superintendent has since reported that he has already sent
35,000 covers to Mr. Lawson and that he has made arrangements to send the remaining
covers in weekly instalments until the number required is completed.
7. The total receipts of the year amounted to Rs. 77,494 or including the value
of the quinine packets issued to to Rs. 79,144, while the total expenditure
during the same period was Rs. 78,311 as against Rs. 82,000 and Rs. 84,200, the sanc-
tioned figures under the two heads respectively. A further sum of Rs. 1,514 was due
for quinine and febrifuge supplied to certain local fund and municipal dispensaries
towards the close of the year. Government notes with satisfaction that taking the
second figure given above under receipts, the working of the plantations exhibited a
small surplus, whereas the balance has usually been on the other side. It is hoped
that this improvement in the financial condition of the department will be maintained.
8. The Government has read with interest Mr. Hooper's report on the analytical
work done by him during 1894-05.

I. SEASON AND RAINFALL.—The season during the past official year was character-
ized by a greater amount of rainfall during the south-west monsoon than had been
registered in the previous year ; by the long continued drought at the end of the
year ; by the severe frost in the winter months which did some damage at Dodabetta
and Pykara ; and by the high east winds in February and March.
(a) Dodabetta.—The rainfall registered on this estate was 52 inches and this
was distributed over 148 days ; this amount was about the average for the past ten
years. October was the wettest month in the year, and February was the only month
in which no rain was measured
.
(b) Nedivattam.— At Nedivattam 92.86 inches of rain were registered, spread
over 163 days, and this shows an increase of 13.93 inches over that recorded in the
previous year.
No. 350, REVENUE, 23RD JULY 1896.
IX. FACTORY.—The manufacture of quinine and febrifuge was carried on conti-
nuously during the year until the end of February, when the fusel oil ran out. At
the usual rate of consumption the oil would have lasted to April ; but in October the
work of the factory was very much increased, and the chemicals were used in larger
quantities than was foreseen at the beginning of the year. The fusel oil was ordered
in November, and request was made to have it sent out by the end of February ; but
it has only just arrived.
The following statistics exhibit the outturn and sales of quinine and febrifuge
since the manufacture was first commenced in June 1889, or during the past seven
years :—

The rate at which quinine was sold during the past official year was Rs. 14 a
pound for Medical Stores and Rs. 16 for the public.
Taking the rate of Rs. 14 per pound for quinine and Rs. 10 for febrifuge, the
value of the stock at the close of the year was Rs. 56,221, calculated thus :—
RS.
2,880 lb. of quinine at Rs. 14 per lb.
40,320
1,564 lb. 12 oz. of febrifuge at Rs. 10 per lb
15,640
21 lb. 12 oz. of ciuchouidine sulphas at Rs. 12 per lb.
261
Total
56,221
Government has recently decided to raise the price of quinine to Rs. 18 a pound
for sale to the Medical Stores and the public, but the price of febrifuge will remain the
same for the official year 1896—97.
Quinine.—The quantity of quinine turned out at the factory at Nedivattam was
3,600 lb. ; there remained in stock at the end of the previous year 4,984 lb., making
in all 8,584 lb. Of this, 5,644 lb. were distributed as follows :—

The analyses of some barks from the Dodabetta Plantation show that, in some
cases, the stimulating effect of the manure is only temporary. A large number of
trees were some years ago manured with fish, cattle dung and bone meal. The best
results were obtained in plot 30, where fish had been applied in the proportion of 2½
pounds to a tree. The barks were analysed in 1890, or two years after the manure
had been put down. No manure has been given to this plot since that time ; but to
see if the richness had been maintained, a sample of the bark was analysed in October
1895, with the result that there was a decided diminution of alkaloids.
The following are the analyses referred to :
