Central i\merican Rubber trees (jCastilloa elastica) have been 

 tapped and favourable reports on the rubber obtained were given 

 in London. It is estimated that well grown trees, about 12 years 

 old , will yield 2 &• of rubber per tree. Funtuniia elastica has flowered 

 and fruited for the first time. W. G. Freeman. 



Sands, W. N., Report on the Botanic Station, St. Vincent 

 1905/06. (Imperial Dept. of Agriculture for the West Indies.)

 A considerable portion of the report is devoted tö the cotton industry, 

 the total crop being 77.814 K' of lint, prices from Is. 2d. to Is. bd. 

 ^\ere obtained, St. Vincent cotton maintaining its place as the best 

 grown in the West Indies and probabl}^ in the British Empire. 

 Manurial experiments, seed selection work are reported upon. 



Cacao makes good progress and large numbers of plants have 

 been distributed. The outlook for sugar on the other hand is not 

 very encouraging. W. G. Freeman.
