charged by dipping the point into the vaccine lymph as it collects after the
rupture of a vesicle, and when it becomes dry the point is rolled in some
cotton wool. Lymph thus preserved will remain active for a long time.
The following table shows in detail the results of the year's operations
in each district : —

The most successful results in primary vaccination were obtained by the
Ellichpur and Wun Superintendents. The percentage of unsuccess in the
Akola, Buldana, and Amraoti Districts, is high.
Sex of the vaccinated.
8. Of the total number of persons vaccinated, 40,210 were males and
39,940 females, or 50.1 and 49.9 per cent.
respectively,against 50.6 and 49.4 for the preced-
ing year. The difference between the proportion of males and females
vaccinated is very small in all districts.
Age of the vaccinated.
9. Of the 69,406 successful primary vaccinations, 40,589 were under
one year and 28,351 over one and under six, or
58.5 and 40.7 per cent., respectively, to 65.2 and
34.2 in 1879-80.
The percentage of infants successfully vaccinated to the annual birth-
rate calculated at 40 per thousand of the population was 46.4 against 46.2 last
year, or including dispensaries, 49.5 as compared with 47.6, which was the
highest ratio attained by any province in India for that year.
Inspection.
10. I was in camp from November till the end of March, and during
that time inspected work in the Akola, Buldana,
Basim, and part of the Wun District. With
the exception of some circles in the Buldana District, the work was on the
average good.
In the Lonar Circle of the Buldana District the work was so bad that I
dismissed the vaccinator. The man had been working with bad lymph, and
the children vaccinated suffered much from inflammation and ulceration of
the arm. The patels of three villages came to my camp to complain of the

They reveal the shift from variolation, improved vaccination techniques, logistics of lymph supply, funding and staffing.
