 A total of 199,000. The balance of trees ordered for this season's 

 planting amounts to 50,000 seedlings and 6000 in transplant boxes 

 ready to set out. These will be delivered during the month of 

 March. 



Experimental Garden^ Makiki. 



The old boiler which we have been using for a sterilizer for the 

 past five years gave out and commenced leaking in several 

 places. To keep the work going we had to make a patch with 

 a piece of boiler plate which we bolted on to the bottom of the 

 sterilizer. This temporary repair will not likely last long and 

 it might be wise to make arrangements to get another sterilizer 

 so that the regular work may not be delayed. We are at 

 present trying to get up a stock of trees to be ready for orders 

 that are likely to come in.
