74. It is needless to say that the possibility has been based on area, the size of the 

 coupes being in inverse proportion to the density of the stocking. 



ARTICLE 2. Period for which the Fellings have been prescribed. 



75. The fellings have been prescribed for the entire thirty years comprised in the 

 rotation adopted for most of the Regular Felling series. 



ARTICLE 3. Fellings whether annual or periodical ; Method of their Allotment. 



76. The coupes are intended to be annual, as detailed in the tabular statements in 

 paras. 84 and 85 below. In the nistar series a fresh coupe will be opened every year irrespec- 

 tive of the quantity of material removed from the previous coupe. In the Regular series no 

 fresh coupe will be opened until all the area of the coupe still under working has been gone 

 over. 



77. In the allotment of coupes in the Regular series two principles, not always reconcil- 

 able with one another, have been kept in view. To secure economy in the construction of 

 roads and a ready sale for the produce the coupes have to begin nearest the market to 

 be served on an existing export line and must extend progressively away from it ; but, on the 

 other hand, this principle must, when necessary, give way before a higher consideration, vis., 

 grazing requirements.
