APPENDIX. 



THE EFFECTIVENESS OF EARLY BAGGING. 



To indicate that the recommendations given above as to early bagging 

 are well advised the following figures of this year's work may be given. 

 These were received after the bulletin had been finally passed for the 

 press and so could not be included under the proper heading. They 

 are of course incomplete, containing only the results of preliminary 

 work. All the results of bagging during the summer of 1911 will be 

 published together at the close of the season. 



I. Catches at Anavatti on 12th July 1911. 



We get, then, as a result of an hour and a-half's work with one 

 bag, a catch of 15,000 hoppers together with the clearing of extensive 

 areas of grass land surrounding paddy fields.
