BOMBAY PRESIDENCY. 17
In Poona City 81 heifers were successfully inoculated at a cost of Rs.
284-12-0 and in Poona Cantonment 61 heifers at a cost of Rs. 228-1-0. In
Bombay City 676 heifers were inoculated of which 11 failed. The number of
failures during the year was not so large as in the preceding year when it was
30, but the number of calves affected by foot and mouth disease was exception-
ably large, viz. 96.
Places where animal vac-
cination was carried on.
Vaccination with animal lymph was also carried on in Bándra and Kúrla
in the Thána Collectorate, and in Hubli and Dhárwár
in the Dhárwár Collectorate. Owing to the Muni-
cipality of Belgaum refusing to sanction funds, animal
vaccination in that town had to be discontinued at the end of the small-pox
epidemic in 1889. Except in Bombay City, where animal lymph only is
used, vaccination in all other places was carried on from arm to arm with human
lymph.

Cost of each successful case
including all charges.
The increase under provincial head is chiefly due to the pay of Dr. Clark-
son and Dr. Channer having been drawn in full throughout the year. Under
Municipal and Native States it is due to the additional establishment enter-
tained during the year. The decrease in Cantonment is due to the absence of
the Málegaon vaccinator on half pay. The total cost
for the whole Presidency, including all charges, was
Rs. 2,91,056-3-2, whilst the successful cases, excluding
dispensaries and the army, amounted to 879,679. The average cost per each
successful case was annas 5 and pies 4, or 4 pies more than last year.
Cost of each successful case
after deducting the pay of
the Supervising Officers.
39. The total cost and the cost per each success-
ful case, after deducting the pay of the Deputy
Sanitary Commissioners and Superintendents, is shown
