be prescribed ; and generally it sbould be explained how 

 the rights can be met with the least amount of injury or 

 danger to the forest. 



ISxample. — The annexed table indicates the periods for which the several areas 

 will be opened or closed to grazing, They have, as permitted by the settlement, 

 been arranged with a view to giving each area a rest of five years. The number of 

 cattle to be admitted is that given in the statement of rights, and the areas opened 

 will allow 3 acres per head oE cattle giazed. When one area is closed, another will 

 be opened ; and, on an average, one-third of the whole area will always be open to 

 frrazing. This arrangement in no way contravenes the orders passed by the Forest 

 Settlement Officer. 



The Baura block of 106 acres which it is proposed to work regularly will have 

 to he closed. It is free of rights, but grass-cutting can be permitted. The portion 

 traversed by the path from Eanra to Mairawana, or about ten acres, which contains 

 chiefly young chir, may, however, be left open to cattle, as it need not be worked 

 and it is inexpedient to close the much-frequented path. 



It has already been explained that, as regards rights to 

 timber, it may be necessary either to form the area burdened 

 with the rights into a separate working-circle, in which case 

 the exploitation will be dealt with in the ordinary way as a 

 principal provision of the plan, or to allow for the required 

 material in calculating the possibility. In the latter case 

 the removal of the right-holders' trees would be regulated 

 as was necessary but separately from the fellings made 

 under the principal provisions of the plan. 



JExample. — The number of trees required annually by the vill^ers has been 

 estimated as follows from the average consumption of the past five years. These 

 trees will be marked by the Eange Officer for removal by the rJght-bolders on pro- 

 duction of their passes : —
