90 STATE BOARD OF AGRICULTURE. 



A tabulated report of the clinics for the past school year shows that 

 we have had a very substantial increase over that of 1918-1919. Last year 

 the total number of medical and surgical cases treated was 1860, this 

 year the total number was 2745 an increase of 885 cases over last year. 

 The tabulated report shows that 2200 cases were treated in the am- 

 bulatory clinic during the past school year. This I consider one of the 

 most valuable parts of our clinic, as here the student actually comes 

 in contact with the work just as he will find it in private life. 



Respectfully submitted,
