Types (e) and (/) include several species. As the stock colouring will not show what in- 

 dividual species are present, these will be specified in the verbal description under the 

 heading of "Stock." 



109. The headings of the verbal description will be (1) configuration, aspect and eleva- 

 tion, (2) soil and underlying rock, (3) stock, (4) reproduction present, (5) communications, (6) 

 distance in miles from market or markets or from where the produce is used up. As far as 

 possible the verbal description, beginning immediately below the stock map, should be com- 

 pleted on the left-hand page, the right-hand page being reserved for date or dates of felling 

 and for special remarks made from time to time on the progress of the crop, accidents of 

 frost, fire, &c., occurring, and such other noteworthy circumstances, each remark being signed 

 and dated. Thus the right-hand page will contain a complete history of the compartment 

 during the currency of this working plan. 



110. The acreage of the compartment will be written at the top of the left-hand page 

 immediately after the specification of the compartment. 



ARTICLE 4. Revision of the Working Plan. 



111. It is impossible to foretell when a revision of the present plan will become neces- 

 sary ; it is, however, right to say that unless a radical change of procedure is called for, it will 

 suffice to insert in their proper places the few alterations or additions that may from time to 

 time become imperative. Should it be found that a Kegular series is unworkable, it will be 

 at once removed from the Regular to the nistar series list, and its 30 or 20 coupes, as the 

 case may be, reduced to 5 by grouping 6 or 4 of them together, as the case may require, into 

 one. On the other hand, should the demand for wood on a nistar series increase sufficiently 

 to allow of its regular working, there will be no difficulty in transferring it from the nistar 

 to the Regular series list and splitting up each of its coupes into 4, 5 or 6 coupes according 

 to the grazing pressure to be met. 



ARTICLE 5. Changes proposed in the Forest Staff. 



112. As long as the revenue remains stationary, no increase of establishment can be 

 given ; and, indeed, this matter may be left to the discretion of the Conservator acting under 

 the orders of the Chief Commissioner. 



ARTICLE 6. Financial Results of proposed Working. 



113. The following estimate of average annual revenue and expenditure has been made 

 on the assumption that the Damoh and adjoining districts have regained their normal condi- 

 tion. Although most of the expenditure on roads and buildings may have to be incurred 

 during the first few years, the figures under those sub-heads have been spread over the 

 entire period of thirty years for which the plan provides, otherwise the charges would have 

 to be exaggerated :
