The  total  increase  of  7,218  acres,  as  compared 
with  12,171  acres  in  1894,  is  distributed  among  all 
districts,  except  Cachar  and  Darrang.  In  Cachar 
it  is  stated  that  new  extensions  have  not  kept  pace 
with  the  areas  of  old  tea  abandoned,  and  in  Dari’ang 
the  decrease  is  said  to  be  more  apparent  than  real, 
being  due  to  greater  accuracy  in  the  figures  forcer- 
tain  gardens  for  which  estimates  had  to  be  framed 
in  previous  years.
