Owing to the progressive donunda
tion of forests and'.wood lands in West
Bengal,, by privat owners and their ton-
ants, there has been wide spread soil
erosion with the result that large tracts
of lands ore becoming bare and almost
unproductive. The destruction of forest
cover has not, only . caused a chronic
shortage in the supply of ' timber and
lire wood hut is rendering West Bengal
as a whole more anil more Iiablo to
Hood, drought and heavy land-slides.
The. recent havoc of land-slides particu-
