Fractures. Principal fractures treated :-

Pelvis, 2 Thigh, 8 1 Leg, 9 1 Patella, 3 Ribs, 9 Arm, 9 Forearm, Metacarpal Bone,Malarial Fever-There was an increase in the number of cases treated:-340 against 188 in 1909, 282 in 1908, 247 in 1907, and 239 in 1906. I am inclined to think that the majority of fevers returned under the heading Febricula (66) are Malarial, but as we failed to find the parasite, the patients having been cinchonised, we have not classified them as such.
Appendicitis. Two Europeans were under treatment, and recovering without operation.
Typhoid Fever.-There were 22 cases with 7 deaths (31.8 %) as against 28 cases with 9 deaths (32.14 %). The majority of the cases were imported.
Parasites. There were 11 cases under treatment-Ankylostomiasis 2, Tapeworm 3, Ascaris lumbricoides 4, Filariasis 1, Distomiasis 1.
OPERATIONS.
There were 243 major operations performed under chloroform and 21 under cocaine, and 1 with spinal analgesic. Of the major operations there were 20 deaths. The majority of the operations were performed by Dr. Moore, the Assistant Superintendent.
VACCINATIONS.
During the year 618 cases were vaccinated as against 521 in the previous year: of primary cases 147 were successful and 46 unsuccessful; of revaccinations 60 were successful and 365 unsuccessful.
