Glossina,  and  we  have  heard  no  history  of  disease.  There  is  only 
one  settler,  who  has  but  recently  acquired  land  and  hired  a  few  head 
of  cattle  from  the  Administration.  We  are  not  acquainted  with  any 
native-owned  cattle  in  this  division. 
Awemba.  It  will  be  seen  from  the  map  that  a  large  area  of  this 
district  is  tenanted  by  Glossina  morsiians,  and  that  only  the  North 
and  North-West  are  considered  free.  The  three  Government  posts  of 
hlpika,  Kasama  and  Luena  each  keep  from  twenty  to  thirty  head  of 
cattle  for  the  Ofhcial’s  use,  and  at  Kasama,  donkeys  and  pigs  were  also 
seen.  At  Luena  there  have  been  no  suspected  cases  of  trypanosomiasis 
during  the  past  two  years,  but  previously  a  considerable  number  of 
these  animals  died  there  from  ‘  fly,’  which,  it  will  be  seen,  encroaches 
all  round.  Mpika  is  also  very  close,  and  wandering  Gl.  rnorsitam 
have  been  taken  on  the  station.  There  are  no  settlers  in  this 
division,  but  a  European  trader  at  Kasama  owns  a  few  head  for 
milking.  The  mission  stations  of  the  Peres  blancs  d’ Algiers  at  Chila- 
bula,  Chirui  and  Chilonga,  each  keep  from  thirty  to  sixty  head,  and 
none  report  the  occurrence  of  disease,  though  morsiians  were  taken 
by  us  within  four  miles  of  the  last  named.  It  is  said  by  natives  that 
in  past  years  the  island  of  Chirui  was  joined  to  the  mainland  on  the 
East  side  of  Lake  Bangueolo,  and  that  tsetse  were  then  existent 
during  the  dry  season.  This  island  is  now  somewhat  densely  popu¬ 
lated,  and  so  largely  cultivated  that  nearly  all  timber  has  been  cut 
down,  and  it  is  no  longer  connected  with  the  mainland  except  by 
hardly  fordable  swamps  of  some  miles  in  width.  An  Awemba  chief, 
Luchembe  of  the  Mpika  division,  keeps  four  head  of  cattle  in  the 
centre  of  Gl.  morsiians.  These  animals  are  said  to  be  the  offspring 
of  large  herds  brought  in  from  raids  on  the  northern  tribes  fifteen 
years  ago.  He  has  tried  fo  introduce  new  animals  since,  but  they 
have  invariably  died  of  disease.  In  the  district  around  Kasama  there 
are  forty-five  head  of  native-owned  cattle,  all  of  which  live  towards 
the  border  of  the  Tanganyika  division.  In  Luena  there  are  none. 
The  natives  on  Lake  Bangueolo  keep  relatively  large  flocks  of  sheep, 
which  are  said  to  do  well  locally ;  and  most  villages,  even  in  the 
tsetse  country,  keep  a  few  goats.
