It will be Interesting to note that though these repair-
ing charges seem to be trifling sums when taken by
themselves, they assume a large proportion when con-
sidered in the aggregate for the village as a whole. As

calculated from the schedules collected, we find that the
village has to spend Rs. 4086 by way of repairing charges
per annum. This is no small sum for a village whose
annual net income is only a little more than rupees one
lakh and a half.1

CONCLUSION

The main conclusions from this chapter are :

(1) That the'Cattle of the village are inadequate in
numbers and generally poor in quality ; and

(2) that the necessary implements and tools for carry-
ing on cultivation are also inadequate.
