No account is taken in the above calculation of either royalty on the 
timber or on the process. Were these charges included Finns excelsd 
B. G. sleepers would cost approximately Bs. 5-8-0 and Pinus longifolia 
B. G. sleepers, Bs. 5-0-0 each ; while the two Dipterocarps would come 
to Bs. 4-8-0 per B. G. sleeper and Terminalia tomentosa toBs. 4-11-0 
per B. G. sleeper. The reason for the Pinus excelsa sleepers 
costing more than the other species is, that the royalty on the 
timber is high, the untreated timber finding a ready market in Northern 
India. 
(Hi) Notes of the behaviour of the Powellized sleepers, after 
BEING LAID IN THE LINE. 
The above sleepers, after treatment, were handed over to the Bailway
