Advice and Assistance. 



The writer paid a visit to Hilo for the purpose of making arrangements 

 with Bro. Matthias in regard to increasing the size of the Hilo Nursery, so 

 that enough trees could be kept in stock to supply the Island of Hawaii. 

 The work of propagating the necessary trees will commence at once. 



The writer has been called upon to give advice as follows: Calls made, 

 4; advice by phone, 4; advice given people calling, 6. 



Respectfully submitted, 



David Haughs,
