Abstract: Abstract In the present paper, a new sampling scheme is proposed for sample selection for odd sample size where population size is a multiple of sample size for a population characteristic having a linear or a two-way linear trend. On comparison of efficiencies of the proposed estimator with the simple random sampling without replacement, linear systematic sampling, stratified sampling and balanced systematic sampling, it is observed from theory as well as real life data, that the proposed scheme performs better.
