GRAMINE^. 
* 375. Oryza sativa, Linn. — I am not aware that rice 
is cultivated anywhere in Ladak, but it is common about 
Yarkand. Our camp followers were much surprised at 
seeing both the summer and winter crops of the Punjab 
Plains ripening at the same season in Yarkand. Wheat and 
barley, rice and maize, were being reaped in adjacent fields. 
I believe the winter in Yarkand is much too severe to allow 
of a winter crop of any sort. 
* 376. Zea Blays, Linn. — Indian corn is a common 
crop on the Yarkand Plains. The flour is said to be mixed 
with wheat flour to render the bread white, but this grain 
is chiefly used for feeding horses. It is not grown in 
Ladak.
