It will be seen that in Bijnor, Fatehpur, Bánda, Allahabad, Hamírpur, Jalaun,
Naini Tál, Lucknow, Fyzabad, Bara Banki and Jaunpur the vaccinators have a
smaller population to operate on than is calculated to give them a good percentage
of work. In many of these districts however, notably in Fatehpur, Bánda, Allahabad
and Hamírpur, the hostility of the people to vaccination is still considerable, and I do
not advocate therefore any reduction in this excess of vaccinators as computed
merely on the population, and not on the important additional factor of the attitude
of the people towards vaccination. In Dehra Dún, Naini Tál, Lucknow and Fyzabad
districts, although the number of operations per vaccinator is low, owing to the
excess of vaccinators, yet the districts are well vaccinated. In Bara Banki district
no less than 10 vaccinators are extra men temporarily engaged at the expense of the
Court of Wards, and these men, knowing that their appointments are temporary, are
indifferent as regards the amount of work done. In Jaunpur and in Bijnor dis-
tricts the vaccinators were indifferent to their work, and three and eight men were
punished respectively. In Jhánsi and in Hamírpur districts, there is an increase in
work as compared with last year, but the work done is still greatly deficient. In
Jalaun district one vaccinator was pensioned, one was on sick leave, one was deputed
on plague duty, and two were ill for over six weeks ; in all these cases work was
carried on by locally entertained (untrained) men.

Vaccination in proportion to births.

portion to births for the last eight years. The
results are shown by circles :—
