The following list of minor forest products, chiefly collected by Government Yanadis, is given in the Nellore District Gazette:-- Chay root (Oldenlandia umbellata), which, by a quaint misprint, appears as cheroot. Kanuga (Pongamia glabra). Sarsaparilla (Hemidesmus indicus). Nux vomica (Strychnos Nux-vomica). Tangedu (Cassia auriculata). Soap nut (Sapindus trifoliatus). Achilla weed (lichens). Ishwarac (Aristolochia indica). Vishabuddi (Sida carpinifolia). Kukkapala (Tylophora asthmatica). Honey. Rattan (Calamus Rotang). Tamarind (Tamarindus indicus). Neredu (Eugenia Jambolana). Surati bark (Ventilago Madraspatana). In the interests of the Yanadis it is laid down, in the Gazette, that "the Yanadi villages must be encouraged, and the people paid at least once a week for the produce they collect. This must be done by the maistry (overseer) going up and down the main ride every day during the collection season, checking the collections, and paying for them on the spot. The Yanadis will, of course, camp out in the reserve when collecting produce, and not return, as heretofore, every three days to Sriharikota, thus wasting 45 per cent. of their time in the mere coming and going, apart from the fact that, under the old system, the produce from some parts of the reserves was never collected at all, as no one visited them." The Yanadis dance on festive occasions, at ceremonies, and occasionally for begging, smearing the body with turmeric, wearing flowers, singing meaningless songs, and drumming in rude fashion "dambukku, dambukku." Their only wind instrument is the bag-pipe, but they play on the snake charmer's reed as an accompaniment. Their dance is full of indecent suggestion. They have of late trained themselves for the stage, and there are several troupes of Bhagavathulu. To the Rev. G. N. Thomssen, of the Telugu Mission, Bapatla, I am indebted for the following account of a Yanadi dance. "Especially at night, they love to gather in some part of the jungle where they have their huts, and, having gathered a pile of palmyra leaves, burn them one by one as torches, while a number of men and women begin to dance their quaint, weird jungle dance, which is to represent the experiences of the hunters in their wanderings. The chief actors, or dancers, are dressed fantastically. They are almost nude, but dangling from their loins are palmyra baskets, in which they gather edible bulbs and roots, dead rats, snakes, etc., which are prized as something to fill the stomach. Suddenly the actors fell on the ground. One of them cries out 'thelu' (scorpion). Then the other asks where, and is shown the place where the scorpion is supposed to have stung the sufferer, while the choir sing:--
