CEOPS OF THE KANGRA VALLEY. 303 



Cheena or Cheenee, Millet seeds (Panicum miliaceum). 



Kaugeree or Korree (Panicum italicum) (Sorghum vulgare). 



Dhan(Oryzasativa), several varieties; the two marked divisions 

 are those sown in the upper lands, and not watered ; and 

 those which are sown in low hot valleys require much 

 irrigation to bring them on. Most of the rice grown 

 is exported to the plains — a third of the valley is devoted 

 to this cultivation.

 cultivated. 



Mukkee, or Chillee ; Indian corn or Bhootah (zea, maize). 

 The American variety introduced by me into the hills, 

 is rapidly supplanting the kind of maize formerly culti- 

 vated. This maize gives a six-fold returm but is long- 

 in ripening.
