dispensary building is approaching completion. It is hoped that steps will be
taken at an early date to provide suitable accommodation for the Surat, Jalgaon
and Belgaum dispensaries and to find a more convenient locality for the Shikár-
pur dispensary. It is understood that the authorities of the College of Science
are unwilling to accept the proposal made by the Superintendent, Civil Veteri-
nary Department, in paragraph 62 of his report that Mr. Judah Hyam should
remain in sole charge of the Poona dispensary. The Superintendent, Civil
Veterinary Department, Beluchistán and Sind, states that the suggestion origi-
nally made by Veterinary Major Morgan, that the services of the Veterinary
Assistant at Hyderabad should be utilized in giving veterinary instruction to
the students of the Agricultural Class, has been re-opened. The suggestion has
been approved in Government Resolution No. 3185, dated 6th May 1899, Reve-
nue Department.

Miscellaneous.

20. The Superintendent, Civil Veterinary Department, Bombay, complains
in the concluding portion of his report that some of
the reports and returns due from district officers
were received late. The attention of the officers concerned may be invited to
the orders contained in paragraph 11 of Government Resolution No. 8560, dated
24th November 1897, Revenue Department, requiring them to furnish the
required information by l5th April.

Conclusion.

21. The work done by both the Superintendents
was satisfactory.
