ANNUAL ADMINISTRATION REPORT OF THE
CIVIL VETERINARY DEPARTMENT, SIND,
FOR THE YEAR 1925-26
GENERAL ADMINISTRATION
Mr. J. H. G. Jerrom, I.V.S., held charge of the office of
Superintendent, Civil Veterinary Department, Sind and Rajputana,
throughout the year under report. He inspected all the Veterinary
Dispensaries and District Local Board stallions and when possible
attended outbreaks of contagious diseases. He attended and judged
at the Jacobabad Horse and Pony Show. He was on tour in Sind
for 63 days and travelled 5,039 miles by rail and 303 miles by road;
as against 73 days and 3,822 miles by rail and 314 miles by road
last year. In addition, he remained 6 days on tour in Rajputana
and travelled 1,098 miles by rail and 40 miles by road ; as against
6 days and 1,098 miles by rail and 26 miles by road, in Rajputana,
last year.
He also attended the meeting of the Provincial Board of
Agriculture held at Poona, when he spent 10 days and travelled 2,216
miles by rail and 8 miles by road.
I.—VETERINARY INSTRUCTION
2. There were three scholars studying at the Bombay Veterinary
College at the beginning of the year. Two passed the final
examination but only one was appointed to the Subordinate Civil
Veterinary Department, Sind, as there was no vacancy for the
second. It is hoped the second man will be taken up in 1926-27
when Government sanction is received for the opening of new
Veterinary Dispensaries in the Thar Parkar district. Only one
Sind scholar was, therefore, studying at the College at the end of
the year under report.
II.—TREATMENT OF DISEASE
Table II.
3. During the year under report, outbreaks of contagious disease
were reported from every district in the
Province. The total number of mortality
reported was 2,943 against 5,519 in the previous year.
(i) Equine Contagious Disease
4. Glanders.—Four cases of Glanders were destroyed in
Jacobabad town, under the Glanders and Farcy Act, against 3
cases destroyed in Karachi town, last year.
5. Surra.—All districts reported Surra. Forty-seven cases were
confirmed and 42 cases, though reported as Surra, were not
confirmed as the animals had died before the arrival of the
Veterinary Assistant. Surgeon. It is, however, probable that the
disease was Surra in the unconfirmed cases, as several confirmed
cases were actually detected from the same localities.
39
6. Rabies.—Three animals died of Rabies in the Karachi district.
7. Other Contagious Diseases.—Two hundred and three animals
were affected with Strangles, of which 25 died. One horse was
reported to have died of Tuberculosis but the disease was not
confirmed.
(ii) Bovine Contagious Disease
8. Rinderpest.—Twenty-nine
outbreaks of this disease were
reported from the districts of Karachi, Thar Parkar, Nawabshah,
Sukkur and Larkana. Nine hundred and nineteen head of cattle
were affected and 519 died against 1,354 attacks and 733 deaths in
the previous year.
9. Foot-and-Mouth Disease.—One hundred and ninety-two
outbreaks of this disease were reported from all the districts of the
province. Twelve thousand eight hundred and forty-seven animals
were affected and 186 died, most of the deaths being among the
young calves and heifers.
10. Hæmorrhagic Septicæmia.—Fifty-two
outbreaks of the
disease were reported. Four hundred and sixty-five head of cattle
were attacked and 449 died, as against 270 attacks and 255 deaths
in the previous year. All the districts were affected except that of
Hyderabad and Thar Parkar.
11. Anthrax.—Seven animals were affected with Anthrax, out of
which 6 died but the disease was not confirmed as it was reported
so late that the Veterinary Assistant Surgeon on arrival at the
scene of outbreak, could not find any case.
12. Black Quarter.—Thirteen animals were reported to have
been affected with and died of this disease. The disease was not
confirmed as no cases were seen by the Veterinary Assistant
Surgeons of this Department, on arrival at the scones of the
outbreak.
13. Other Contagious Diseases.—Parasitic
Gastritis was
responsible for the death of 20 animals, out of 40 affected, and
Rabies caused the death of one animal.
(iii) Contagious Disease among other Animals
14. Foot-and-Mouth Disease.—There were 9 outbreaks of the
disease among sheep and goats in Hyderabad, Nawabshah and
Sukkur districts. Out of 432 affected, 24 died.
15. Contagious Pleuro-Pneumonia.—One thousand one hundred
and fifty-three sheep and goats were affected and 825 died in
all the districts of the Province. Sixty-one camels were also
reported to have been affected and 12 died in the Larkana district.
16. Surra.—Seven cases of Surra in camels were reported
in the districts of Karachi Nawabshah, Upper Sind Frontier and
Larkana. All the animals died or were destroyed under the
Glanders and Farcy Act, except one which was successfully treated
with intravenous injections of Tartar Emetic as recommended by
Mr. Cross, Camel Specialist.
40
17. Babies. - Forty-four dogs were attacked and all died or were
destroyed in the districts of Karachi, Hyderabad, Sukkur, Upper
Sind Frontier and Larkana.
18. Four dogs bitten by other rabid dogs were successfully
treated at Shikar pur and Hyderabad with Anti-Rabic Vaccine
obtained from the Haffkine Institute, Bombay.
19. Rinderpest.—Eighty sheep and goats were reported to have
been affected and 60 died, but the cases were not confirmed as the
disease had died out when the Veterinary Assistant Surgeon arrived
at the scene of the outbreak.
20. Anthrax.- Sixteen sheep and goats were reported to have
been attacked with and died of Anthrax in the Nawabshah district
but the disease could not be confirmed as there was no case to be
seen for examination when an officer of this department reached
the scene of the outbreak.
21. Other Contagious Diseases.—Comprised Parasitic Gastritis,
Variola, Mange, Piroplasmosis, Distemper, Influenza and Parasitic
Bronchitis. Two thousand one hundred and eighty-three animals
were affected and 640 died.
(iv) Preventive Inoculations
Table III.
22. In 15 outbreaks of Rinderpest, 3,754 animals were
inoculated with Anti-Rinderpest Protective
Serum as compared with 2,634 inoculations
performed in the previous year. In the course of these outbreaks,
218 uninoculated and 20 inoculated animals died.
23. One thousand eight hundred and ninety-eight animals were
inoculated with Hæmorrhagic Septicæmia Serum in 14 outbreaks,
as compared with 946 inoculations performed, in the previous year.
One hundred and twenty-one uninoculated animals died in the
course of these outbreaks and 4 deaths occurred amongst the
inoculated animals.
(v) Other Diseases
Table IV.
24. The number of villages visited by the Veterinary Assistant
Surgeons was 1,675 against 1,670 in the
previous year. During their tours, they
treated 4,860 cases for contagious and 2,368 cases for non-contagious
diseases, and performed 58 castrations; against 3,048 cases for
contagious and 1,821 for non-contagious diseases and 23 castrations
performed in the previous year.
(vi) Investigations
25. During the year under report, 122 specimens from suspi-
cious cases of Surra, Piroplasmosis, Hæmorrhagic Spticæmia,
Mange, Lymphangitis, Dourine, Filaria and Glanders were submitted
by the Subordinate staff to the Superintendent, Civil Veterinary
Department, Sind and Rajputana, for examination; and of these,
71 were confirmed. In addition, 14 brains from cases of Rabies
were submitted for examination to the Haffkine Institute, Bombay.
41
(vii) Veterinary Dispensaries
Table V.
26. There were 16 Veterinary Dispensaries working during the
year, the same number as last year. The
total number of patients treated at dispen-
saries was 26,250 against 24,572 in the previous year. Medicines
and advice were given to the owners of 7,994 animals which were
not brought to the dispensaries for treatment, making a total of
34,244 animals treated and supplied with medicines as compared
with a total of 29,574 animals in the previous year. The number
of castrations performed at dispensaries was 129 as against 125 in
the previous year. The increase in the number of patients treated
is satisfactory.
27. The Burdizzo Castrator has recently been supplied to five
Veterinary Dispensaries and it is hoped that the new method of
castration will be appreciated by the people and animals will be
brought readily for the operation. Veterinary Assistant Surgeons
are requested to demonstrate to the people the use of this
instrument and make the method popular.
III.—BREEDING OPERATIONS
(i) Bovines
28. Cattle breeding operations are under the control of the Live
Stock Expert, Bombay Presidency, Poona.
(ii) Equines
Tables X, XI, XII.
29. There were nine District Local Board stallions at the
beginning of the year. The stallion returned
by the zamindar in the Larkana district did
not cover any mares and was subsequently sold. One stallion in
the Upper Sind Frontier and one in the Sukkur district were sold
as they were very old and not suitable for stud purposes. The
District Local Board, Upper Sind Frontier, purchased a thorough
bred and an Arab stallion and the District Local Board, Larkana,
a Kathiawari, during the year. There were thus 9 stallions at the
close of the year. The stallions covered 472 mares during the year
as against 406 mares covered in the previous year. The cost of
maintenance of the stallions was Rs. 6,760 of which Government
contributed Rs. 2,450. The Province is in urgent need of more
stallions and the District Local Boards of Sukkur, Hyderabad and
Karachi districts, are anxious to purchase a stallion each but
without a Government grant, find it very hard to do so. A sum
of Rs. 5,600 has been provided for purchase and maintenance of more
stallions in the Province, in the budget estimates for 1926-27, and
a similar provision will be made in the year 1927-28.
(iii) Other Animals
30. No breeding operations are carried on in Sind under the
control of this Department,
Q 24—6
42
(iv) Fairs and Shows
Table XIII.
31. Horse Shows.—The Jacobabad Horse and Pony Show was
held as usual in January. Four hundred
and ninety-two horses competed for prizes
and Rs. 3,475 were awarded. Government, as usual, contributed
Rs. 1,450 towards the Show.
32. Cattle Shows.—Are under the Live Stock Expert to Govern-
ment, Bombay Presidency. Poona.
IV.—SUBORDINATE ESTABLISHMENT
Table VII.
33. There were 17 Veterinary Assistant Surgeons and two
Veterinary Inspectors at the beginning of the
year. Two Veterinary Assistant Surgeons
were appointed during the year. There were thus 19 Veterinary
Assistant Surgeons and two Veterinary Inspectors at the close of the
year. Of the 19 Veterinary Assistant Surgeons in Sind, 16 are in
charge of Veterinary Dispensaries and 3 on reserve duty. Of the
16 men in charge of dispensaries, one is a District Local Board
servant.
34. The number of Veterinary Assistant Surgeons is too inade-
quate for the large tract of country they have to cover to attend
to outbreaks of contagious diseases and great difficulty is generally
experienced when one or two extensive outbreaks of Rinderpest
break out simultaneously.
35. The Veterinary Inspector, Upper Sind Circle, was 148 days
on tour and travelled 3,618 miles by rail and 356 miles by road.
The Veterinary Inspector, Lower Sind Circle, Karachi, was 144
days on tour and travelled 5,521 miles by rail and 756 miles by
road.
36. The Veterinary Inspectors, in addition to inspection of
Veterinary Dispensaries every quarter, did good work in the
district both in attending outbreaks of disease and in checking the
work of the Veterinary Assistant Surgeons.
37. Both the clerical and subordinate Veterinary staff worked
well as usual. The office work in the Superintendent's office has
considerably increased and proposals for an additional clerk will be
submitted to Government very shortly.
V.—EXPENDITURE OF THE DEPARTMENT
Table XIV-A.
38. The expenditure of the department was Rs. 1,27,740 as
against Rs. 1,30,182 in the previous year.
The figures of provincial expenditure have,
as usual, been supplied by the Accountant General and are subject
to modifications in view of the adjustments that may be made in
the Final and Supplementary Accounts. The figures of "Local"
expenditure under all heads have been supplied by the District
Local Boards.
43
VI.—GENERAL REMARKS
39. A sum of Rs. 5,799-1-0 was paid for sera and vaccines received
from the Imperial Institute of Veterinary Research, Muktesar,
during the year under report, as against Rs. 5,728-2-0. A sum of
Rs. 852-6-0 was realised and credited to Government for 4,500
doses of Anti-Rinderpest Protective Serum used in inoculating 638
head of cattle exported from Karachi, as against Rs. 484-3-0 realised
and credited in the previous year.
40. The reporting of contagious disease still continues to be
unsatisfactory. In many cases intimation of the outbreak is only
given when there has been a large number of deaths. Although
the names of defaulting Tapedars have been in many instances
reported to the Collectors concerned and some have been suitably
dealt with, no improvement appears to have been made in this
respect. The Collectors have again been requested to impress
upon the Tapedars and selected Zamindars, the urgency and
importance of prompt reports being submitted to the Veterinary
Assistant Surgeons. The system will improve gradually as the
defaulting Tapedars are suitably dealt with and begin to understand
their responsibility.
41. The proposal of rewards for Tapedars did not* meet with
the approval of Government.
42. A Lazaretto is urgently required in Karachi and a scheme
has been submitted to Government and administrative approval
obtained for its construction and it is hoped that the necessary
funds will be made available during the year 1926-27 for the
construction of the buildings.
43. One more important question that is receiving the attention
of Government is to open the Port of Karachi for the importation
of horses to India. The opening of the port of Karachi for this
purpose would help the people of the Northern India materially
in purchasing horses from Karachi and save great expenditure on
their transit from Bombay.
44. The paucity of Veterinary Assistant Surgeons is the greatest
drawback in coping with the outbreaks of contagious diseases
efficiently. The large tract of country that has to be attended to
by the very few Veterinary Assistant Surgeons makes it next to
impossible to give the required help to the people in combating the
different diseases. The reserve corps of 3 Veterinary Assistant
Surgeons should be increased to 7 men, or 1 per district.
45. At the request of the Agricultural Adviser to the Govern-
ment of India, the following programme of work for the next year
is included in the Annual Report :—
" The energies of the Department will, as usual, be directed
towards the application of modern scientific methods of treatment
of disease, both curative and prophylactic. More dispensaries will
be opened as funds permit. It is contemplated to open three more
dispensaries in the Thar Parkar district.
44
" Proposals have been submitted to the Presidents of the District
Local Boards in Sind for opening experimental touring dispensaries
with a view to establish them permanently at central and important
places where the need of them is greatly felt by the Zamindars.
" More stallions will be provided as funds permit."

Acting Superintendent,
Civil Veterinary Department,
Sind and Rajputana.
