Total ... 262 12 5 269 Classes I and 11.—These include all institutions maintained by Provincial Funds and under Govern¬ ment management. The fact that an institution possesses endowments or receives contributions from Local Funds or private subscriptions should not be regarded as a reason for not classing it as “State,” so long as Provincial and Imperial Funds are practically responsible for all the charges connected with it. Class I— “ Public ” are State dispensaries which are open to the poorer classes of the public. Cla.^s II are “ State ” dispensaries which serve only a special section of the public as indicated in the sub-classification attached. Class Ill.—Local Fund dispensaries include all institutions wh'ch are vested in local boards or Muni¬ cipalities or guaranteed or maintained by Local or Municipal Funds. The fact that such an institution is aided by private subscriptions, or receives assistance from Government in the shape of part of the salary of the Medical Officer, grants of medicine, or otherwise, should not be regarded as a reason for not classing it as a Local Fund dispensary so long as its existence is practically dependent upon Local Funds. Class IV.—Comprises institutions supported by private subscriptions or guaranteed, but receiving aid from Government or Local Funds. Class V.—Comprises institutions maintained entirely at the cost of private individuals or associations. The fact that Government supplies superior inspection or registers should not be regarded as a reason for not treating it as a private non-aided dispensary. Class VI. — Comprises all railway dispensaries whether maintained by State railways or others. NOTES. 1. Transfers of dispensaries from one class to another should be noted in the column of ** Remarks.” 3. Hospitals of the different Funds should be shown as private-aided or non-aided, as the case may be. 3. Dispensaries of a purely itinerant character should in no'case be included in the statement.
