(a) the necessary wearing apparel, cooking utensils, beds and bedding of the defaulter, and of his wife and children and such personal ornaments as, in accordance with religious usage, cannot be parted with by any woman;

(b) his implements of husbandry and such cattle and seed grain as may, in the opinion of the court, be necessary to enable him to earn his livelihood as an agriculturist; and

(c) houses and other buildings belonging to the defaulter and actually occupied by him or used by him as a cattle-shed.
