1 SALT REVENUE DEPARTMENT FOR THE OFFICIAL YEAR 1897-98.
2 The entire sales of the year by this Department and by the REVIEW BY SECTIONS.
3 Darbar amounted to only 7,919 maunds, compared with 15,000 FATODI.
4 maunds during 1896-97 and 10,591 maunds during 1895-96. I
5 believe that the decrease is owing to the competition of Pach-
6 badra salt, a quality superior to the produce of Falodi, which
7 issues duty-free to the Darbar for consumption in the State.
8 56. In Article XI of the Salt Agreement with the Marwar RAJPUTANASALT
9 Darbar, it is provided that in the event of the total realizations SOURCE.
10 from the sale of salt at the salt sources of Didwana, Pachbadra, “may coer nee
11 and Falodi exceeding in any year the total charges properly _ puténs Salt sourees.
12 debitable against them, one-half of the excess shall be paid to
13 the Darbar. I therefore place the following summary on
14 record, which shows the financial results during the year under
15 report of the lease of the sources I have named :—
