As regards licensed agency it will be seen that more men did less
work, which as a consequence reduced the average number of operations per
man during the year under report. The reasons for the decrease of work
in 1891-92 have been already explained in paragraph 3.
There was a decrease in the number of Government vaccinators, conse-
quently fewer operations were performed.
The increase under all heads of vaccination by municipal agency, except the
decrease in revaccination, is satisfactory, and is due to greater interest given
to the subject by Civil Surgeons generally.
Vaccination according to sex.
7. The following table shows, circle by circle and in municipalities, the
number of males and females vaccinated during
the year under report compared with the previous
year.:—
