the estimated quantity cut per acre at each cutting. The total area returned was 6,000 acres, of which over 50 per cent. was in the eight counties, Somerset, Dorset, Gloucester, Nottingham. Stafford, Lancashire, Berkshire and Suffolk. Very few osiers or willows seem to be grown in the northern division of England or in Wales. About three-fourths of the total area is reported to be cut over almost every year, the produce being used for basket making or for tying bundles of vegetables for market., &c. The average annual production of this nature is estimated at nearly 14,000 tons. The remainder of the area is cut approximately every seven or eight years, the produce being used in the maiD for fencing, stakes and hurdle making, and sometimes for crate making, the average annual production being about 2,500 tons. These estimates do not include the willows which grow ip many parts of the country alongside streams for which it if practically impossible to obtain information on which an estimate of the production could be based, nor do they include willows which are used for bat making and which will not be cut mor often than about once in twenty years.
