were very small and inactive, but after one or two transmis-
sions they very much improved, and, being perfect in character,
the disease was propagated solely from these, and the old dis-
carded ; it having been the custom each year to renew the
lymph under the idea that it might deteriorate.

The following supplies of vaccine lymph were distributed
to Civil Surgeons and Regimental Medical Officers:—173
capillary tubes, 93 vaccine crusts, 29 ivory points, and 26
glasses charged with vaccine lymph.

31. The Conduct of the Establishment has on the whole
been very good; nearly all have shown zeal in their work, and
no serious fault has occurred. Native Superintendents Attar
Mull, and Nának Chand, the former in the Siálkót, the latter
in the Gujránwála district, deserve special praise for the very
large number of operations they have performed in those dis-
tricts.

List of those brought to
favorable notice.
