Table 1 shows the number of men, women and children examined at each village. Infants in arms were not examined (except in one case), and are not included in the table.

I kept separate account of boys and girls, because I thought that the boys, being goat-herds, would be more liable to infection; but as I found no cases in either class there was nothing to be gained by entering them separately,

The women examined outnumbered the men by more than 2 to 1. The reasons for this I take to be

(1) Many of the men were away at work and some in the bush.

(2) Owing to the higher death-rate among men (due to their going out to

work) the number is really smaller.

The figures showing the prevalence of fly and of game were arrived at in this way I wrote down against the list of villages my own impression of the numbers, and then, covering up my figures, I asked Mr. Trotter, the Native Commissioner, to write his. We found that the figures agreed very closely; where they differed we discussed the reasons for our respective opinions.

Comparing this country to Katanga, fly is enormously more plentiful there than here. Here it is only just between Buwampu and Sinasitonka that fly is numerous enough to be a regular nuisance, but there it was a common experience out hunting, or in cycling by oneself, to be annoyed by a cloud of them.

Note on Table 2.

It appears from the table that dogs are only found where trypanosomes are scarce at the edge of the fly. It would probably be safe for a native official to act on the presumption that where dogs are found there is no danger to people, and where there are no dogs it is dangerous.

One might have expected sheep and goats to furnish a more trustworthy The explana- criterion, on the ground that dogs travel and sheep and goats do not. tion seems to be that many of the dogs belong to women, who travel less than men, and even the men do not travel much as compared with men of other districts. On the other hand sheep and goats are a good deal bought and sold, and, particularly, are used as presents to a bride's mother. They are also sent considerable distances when water becomes scarce.

Further, dogs die very rapidly, sheep less so, and goats seem to have a moderate degree of immunity.
