To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The trees selected are first killed (girdled) by cutting a ring round the tree near the ground, well into the heart-wood. They are then left standing for two years at least to season, when they are felled, logged, and dragged usually by elephants, into the nearest floating streams. Parties of elephants are also kept working the main streams to break up stacks and keep the timber moving. Across the flat country carts are now being largely introduced, dragged by buffaloes, as such work can •Vis -...a' Forestry 177 be done in the hot weather when elephants cannot be used. Various mechanical contrivances have also been introduced by the Borneo Company, Limited, and the Bombay Burmah Trading Corporation, Limited, with wire ropes to drag the logs over hills which are too steep for elephants. Owing to the many rapids on the Me Ping, Me Yome, Me Wang, and Me Nam, logs are floated singly until arrival at Raheng, Sawankaloke, or Utradit, when they are made into rafts varying in shape and number of logs according to the river, and thus conveyed to the duty station at Paknampo, where they are examined, measured, and duty due collected by a Forest Department establishment be- fore proceeding to Bangkok.
