Cultivated. 
The Coffee-tree is cultivated to a considerable extent in the neighbourhood of the town of David in 
Vera-uas, and the Tillage of Capira in Panama ; it grows extremely well, but the berries, ripening dui-mg 
the wet season, have to be dried by artificial heat, which deprives them in a great measure of their aroma, 
renders them of inferior value in the market, and does not afford much encouragement for a more extensive 
cultivation of the tree than that going on at present.
