(Tarai and Bhabar es&atas), with a variety ol spades, chiefly haldit, 

 rimal, khair, nuoo. This work will shortly be extended ia the 

 North Kheri pcantas. . 



(4) Afforestation of the Pttibhit *nd South Kheri chindars (froft 



holes with many damaged sal shoot*, which are tilled back by 



frost yearly, usually OH sandy toil). 



Experiments have been started to try and grow a shelterwood 

 of siiioo which is fairly frost hardy, and likes a sandy soil. If the 

 nssoo succeeds, the sal is expected to grow np under its shelter 

 without being damaged by frost and hence valuable areas of sal 

 forest will be created without any heavy expense. 



These plantations by encouraging the growth of valuable 

 species in areas which at present produce no revenue at all, have 

 great potentialities of increasing revenue in the future and the 

 work will be pushed on as funds are available.
