Section 5. — Development op the Root. 
The under -ground portion of a tree developes proportionately to the 
crown : but the stool does not in India, so far as the Sal is concerned, 
yield produce of any value, especially owing to the prohibitive cost of 
its exploitation. As a rule, when a tree is cut flush with the ground, the 
volume of the underground portion of a tree is found for most spe.cies 
to equal one-eighth to one-quarter of the total volume of the stem and 
crown* ; but no data are available bearing specially on the Sal.
