Owing to the ever poverty-stricken state of the Indian whereby lie can engage in poppy cultivation. The nature of their engagements is about as follows: The cultivator with poppy seed. For this he is given the requisite amount of seed. If a well has to be dug he is not only given a sum on loan sufficient to carry out his purpose but also money enough to buy bullocks in order to enable him to draw water from the well when it is finished. This is termed the first advance and is simply given to prepare his land for the sowing of poppy seed. The second advance is given when the plant begins to shoot above the earth's surface and the third when the plant is about to mature. In January or February the plant comes to maturity; in that state the pods are lanced in the aftunoon. The opium is allowed to exude till next morning when it is carefully taken off by an iron scraper. At the same time precaution is exercised to close the incisions by running the finger over the cuts. About five to six incisions suffice for the drawing of the juice. The opium is placed in brass vessels slightly tilted so as to drain off the dew or any other watery substance. It is then manipulated and placed in new earthen vessels and is thus kept till it is brought to the weighing station. The cultivator of poppies does not employ labor. His holdings sowing of the seed to the maturing of the plant and the gathering of the opium can be had from the members of his family. The whole of this work is done by himself his wife and his little ones. Many of these opium garden plats worked by the man and family amount to only one-sixth or one-twelfth of an acre perhaps; in a few isolated instances one man is wealthy enough to own half an acre. There are many reasons which conduce to this. First and foremost
