and inassar are little grown. Senji is occasionally storod, and, when this 

 is the case, it is given to the cattle during these months. During the 

 next two months i Sawan Bhadon) there is plenty of grass in unciiltivated plots 

 and in fields lying fallow. This is grazed and also dug up and brought home 

 for the cattle. Next month (Asoj, 16th* September 15th October) green chart 

 alone, or mixed with moth or mung, comes in and supplies food for nearly two 

 months. About the end of October the chari left is cut down and stacked, and 

 for the next four months it forms the principal food, being supplemented by 

 maize stalks and, as soon as the cane crushing begins, about the end of Novem- 

 ber, by the arrow of the canes, which is fed mixed with broken straw. During 

 February and March green fodder crops as methi, senji, and hdlon arc cut down 

 as needed, and given to cattle in the same way as cane tops were previously. If 

 the rains hold off, the people are put to great straits to feed their cattle ; sugar- 

 cane is cut for this purpose, but it is a poor fodder and does not suit for any 

 length of time ; the leaves of the dhak tree (Butea frondosa) are extensively 



used on such occasions When cows and buffaloes are about to calve 



and when they are in milk they often get grain, cotton seed, and oil-cake, but 

 the amount depends on the owner's means, and nothing can be said about the 

 quantity."
