7. The number of Veterinary Hospitals has risen to 114. His Honour
is glad to observe that several private persons have come forward to build
hospitals at their own expense and his acknowledgments are due to them.
Wherever a properly equipped hospital is provided by local bodies or private
individuals, an addition to the staff of Veterinary Assistants will be sanctioned
and the cost met by Government. There is no ground for the fear expressed
by the Director of Agriculture that the legitimate expansion of the department
will be checked. Indeed an increase of ten Veterinary Assistants including
three for the reserve has recently been sanctioned. What the Lieutenant-
Governor has felt compelled to take exception to is the mere inflation of the
cadre where the necessity was not established.
8. The Hissar Cattle Farm has suffered from a partial failure of the
rains for the third year in succession. This means increased expenditure on the
keep of animals, and also, as the Superintendent shows, involves risks to the
stock. Financially, the position of the Farm shows an improvement. The
value of the stock has risen from 4.62 lakhs to 5.28, and the income from
Rs. 86,366 to Rs. 97,389.
The number of bulls issued (637) is the highest on record, and the
Director of Agriculture mentions a case in which Rs. 1,300 was paid for a
single animal. The increasing interest in the improvement of the breed of cattle
is a very healthy symptom, and the steady distribution of well-bred bulls from
the Farm must in time raise the standard over most of the Province. To secure
this result, it is, however, necessary that the supply should be equal to the in-
creasing demand.
The Lieutenant-Governor visited the Farm in February last, and was
much struck with the quantity and quality of the work which is being carried
on there, which reflects great credit on Lieutenant-Colonel Farmer and his
successor.
9. His Honour desires to acknowledge the good work done by the
officers of the Department. He is particularly gratified to notice the steady
progress being made in winning the confidence of the people which is an indis-
pensable condition of success. No better proof of such confidence could be
forthcoming than the fact that many private individuals have come forward to
establish Veterinary Hospitals.
