as compared with R29,978-4-9 in 1910-1911, an increase of R129-0-8 which is

a large area.

Staff " or by " other agencies " in Rajputana, except in the Western Rajputana
States where this work is done only by Sub-Assistant Surgeons in dispensary
towns, the information asked for in the Summary is not available.
