tree planting on forst reserves, while the other three are for 

 general distribution and supplying the needs for tree 

 planting on forest reserves, while the other three are for 

 special reserve planting projects. In addition to these, arrange- 

 ments have been perfected with the principal of the Kapaa School 

 on Kauai whereby he will raise trees for general distribution to 

 the children of the numerous homesteaders in that region. 



Oh account of the new rule forbidding the shipping of trees in 

 soil to prevent the spread of insect pests, provisions were made 

 for supplying each of the main islands with trees from local nur- 

 series. The existing nurseries on the other islands were some- 

 what enlarged and a new nursery, started at Haiku in April, was 

 in good running order by fall and ready to supply the needs of 

 Maui for trees. 



Following is a list of the present tree nurseries :
