No. 772 (Rev. & Agri-Genl.).
FROM
THE HON'BLE MR. H. P. TOLLINTON, I.C.S.,
Revenue Secretary to Government,
Punjab and its Dependencies,
To
THE SECRETARY TO THEGOVERNMENT OF INDIA,
DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE AND AGRICULTURE.
Dated Lahore, 26th August 1912.
Revenue and Agriculture.
General.
SIR,
I AM directed to submit, for the information of the Government of
India, a copy of the annual report of the Civil Veterinary Department for the
year 1911-12, and to convey the following remarks of the Lieutenant-Governor.
2. The regrettable continued falling off of cases treated at the College,
which totalled only 3,384 in the year under report as against 5,597 in the previous
year, is probably to be ascribed to the frequent changes in the teaching staff,
due to Major Smith having been on leave, the sickness of Mr. Gaiger, and
the death of Mr. Carless. It may also be due to the fact that, owing to the
continued growth of the city round the present site, this is not now so suitable
for practice as it was. At any rate it is now much too confined for the
expansion of the College desired by the Government of India, and a fresh
site has been selected which is much more commodious and capable of free
expansion, and is also found, as the result of inquiries made by the Deputy
Commissioner, to be much nearer to the portions of the city where animals are
kept than the present site. In a few years it will be impossible to keep any
animals in the quarters mentioned in the report owing to the great crowding
of houses. The Lieutenant-Governor therefore does not share the forebodings
of the Director of Agriculture and Colonel Pease. The present site is no doubt
nearer the residential quarters of the city and station, but that, though a
convenience to the officers, is not an advantage for a large Veterinary Hospital
and College, where highly infectious disorders are examined and treated.
If, however, the difficulty experienced at the present site in giving practical
training at Lahore does not decrease, the Lieutenant-Governor will be prepared
to consider proposals to make additional arrangements for practical instruction
at the Agricultural Stations at Lyallpur and Gurdaspur, at both of which places
the attendance of patients will probably be very satisfactory.
3. The difficulty in obtaining suitable recruits for the Department is,
Sir Louis Dane understands, also being felt in the United Provinces, and it
may eventually be necessary to improve the prospects of the subordinate staff
by the creation of a new grade of Deputy Superintendent. The Department is
daily growing in popularity and usefulness, and it would be a pity if this progress
were hampered by any incapacity or paucity in the matter of staff. It
may also be necessary to restrict the number of paid students from the Army
and other provinces at Lahore, in order to encourage the indigenous unpaid
students to come forward in larger numbers.
4. The number of dispensaries has now been raised to 109, and it is
satisfactory to be able to record that by next year every tahsil in the province
will be equipped with a veterinary dispensary. The number of cases treated
2
at dispensaries continues to show a steady increase. The province has been
remarkably free from serious disease during the past year, and this has resulted
in a decrease in the number of cases treated on tour; that this is not due to
any falling off in the popularity of skilled veterinary treatment is shown by an
increase of 34 per cent, in the number of non-contagious cases so treated.
It is too early to lay down what the effect of the charging of fees for rinder-
pest inoculation will be, but a special report on the working of the system
will be called for at the end of the present year. It will possibly be found
necessary to make arrangements for free inoculations in the case of a wide-
spread outbreak of the disease.
5. While welcoming the return of Colonel Pease to his old sphere of
activities, His Honour would also wish to express his sense of obligation to
Major Smith and Major Walker for the high state of efficiency in which they
have left their respective charges. Major Walker's charge of the district
work was an exceptionally lengthy one, and His Honour fully agrees with the
remarks of the Director of Agriculture in this connection. At the same time
His Honour has every confidence that Colonel Farmer will maintain this high
standard of efficiency, and in his position as Chief Superintendent will ensure
that the excellent work that he has done at the Hissar Cattle Farm will be
efficiently carried on.
I have the honour to be,
SIR,
Your most obedient Servant,
H. P. TOLLINTON,
Revenue Secretary to Government, Punjab.

Mr. Taylor was placed in charge of the civil veterinary arrangements
for the Delhi Darbar Camp, which he personally attended.
The Superintendent of the North Punjab is Superintendent of the Civil
Veterinary Department, North-West Frontier Province, in addition, which
work takes up a lot of his time.
Mr. Carless on return from leave was posted to the Punjab Veterinary
College and Mr. Cattell was transferred to Sind.
Part II.—Treatment of disease.
(1) CONTAGIOUS DISEASE.
Mortality—table II.
2. During the year 25,455 deaths were reported against 74,696
in the previous year. This satisfactory diminution may
be ascribed in the main to an abnormally healthy year.
There is strong evidence that the work of the department is becoming recog-
nised by the people and frequent applications for assistance are received.
There is less concealment of disease on the part of cattle owners. The month-
ly reports of the patwaris, though frequently submitted in very dilatory fashion,
may be regarded as fairly accurate. There is considerable room for improve-
ment in the prompt reporting of actual outbreaks by patwaris however. Delay
and remissness in this respect may be the cause of unnecessary mortality.
Equines.
Glanders—table II.
3. A serious outbreak of glanders broke out at Pathankot among
the tonga ponies of the Indian Horse Dak Com-
pany and an infected stable belonging to the same com-
pany was discovered in the Kangra district. Twenty-five animals had to be
destroyed for which compensation was given. Energetic measures were taken
and the line to Dalhousie was declared to be free before the exodus to the hills
began. The disease on the Kangra line appears to be more widespread in an
incipient form. It is receiving careful attention.
