(a) Includes one American Donkey stallion lent by the Army Remount Department.
(b) Includes 4 slips and 3 still born.
(c) Includes 3 slips. (The total number of slips during the year under report, i.e., 1914-15 comes to 14, but 11 of the mares which were covered in the year 1914-15 slipped in the same year (1914-15).
Hence they have been excluded from the result of the previous year's covering).

ANNUAL REPORT
ON THE
CIVIL VETERINARY ADMINISTRATION
IN THE
PUNJAB
For the year 1915-16.
Note on veterinary progress in the Punjab by the Director of Agriculture.
1. Three annual reports are here brought together:—
(a) Report on the Punjab Veterinary College;
(b) Report on veterinary work in the districts; and
(c) Report on the Hissar Cattle Farm.
For the College the year was noticeable as being the first in the fine new
buildings, which were formally opened by His Excellency the Viceroy last
December. The move to them will undoubtedly improve the working of
the College in every way, though the falling off in the number of out-door
patients is regrettable: it is due to the distance from the city to the new
buildings. The proposal, designed inter alia to meet with this decrease in num-
bers to establish a Mupicipal Veterinary Hospital on the other side of the city
is now the subject of correspondence with the municipal authorities.
The post graduate course has made a fairly satisfactory start. I am ad-
dressing Colonel Pease separately on his proposal to have an entrance examination
for it. The proposal to start a similar course in vernacular must, I think,
wait for a year or so, till the present English course gets satisfactorily under-
way.
The College has, as usual, done most excellent work during the year, and
its results reflect the highest credit on Colonel Pease and his staff. One member
of them, Mr. Burke, has recently, I am glad to say, received the I. S. O. in re-
cognition of his valuable work for many years, particularly at the Calcutta and
Lahore Veterinary Colleges.
2. The report of Colonel Farmer, the Chief Superintendent, Civil Veteri-
nary Department, on veterinary work in districts is, as usual, full of interest.
Handicapped though his department has been by a shortage of staff amounting
to no less than 25 per cent. on its sanctioned strength, it can point to advances
in many directions: that the advances were not in all directions is probably due
to the fact that the year was generally far more healthy for the animal popula-
tion of the province than its predecessor. The increase in the number of vacci-
nations for black-quarter and hæmorrhagic septicæmia, and of inoculations for
rinderpest, is very satisfactory: but even more so is the fact that the number of
castrations performed by departmental agency has nearly doubled. The number
of hospitals in the province shows an increase of one: the gentlemen mentioned
in paragraph 26 of the report for building or adding to hospitals deserve the
thanks of Government. It is to Colonel Farmer's methods and his influence
in districts that these new buildings are due.
The outbreak of dourine in Dera Ghazi Khan is regrettable. I will ad-
dress Government on the subject shortly.
