3.—VETERINARY RESEARCH AT THE PUNJAB VETERINARY
COLLEGE, LAHORE.

Hygiene Section.

80. A large amount of useful data concerning the
conditions obtaining in the slaughter-
houses of the Punjab has been collected.
This information is now being consolidated.

This section analysed the College made Electrolytic
chlorine, and Chlorogen as manufactured commercially
by certain firms. It was found that the College made
products contain about four times as much available chlorine
as the commercial product, and is produced at a very low
cost.

Pathological Section.

81. In addition to teaching and demonstrations to the
students the undernoted work was done
in the Pathological Laboratory during
the year :—

No work of a special or original nature in the Pathology
Section of the College could be performed, as all the larger
experimental animals were disposed of, on account of lack
of funds to feed them.

Parasitology Section.

82. Surra cases were treated experimentally with a
single dose of "Naganol." The re-
sults have been encouraging, but only a
comparatively small number of animals have been so treated.
