Makiki Station. 



The work at this station has been principally mixing and ster- 

 ilizing soil, transplanting seedlings into boxes and pots and doing 

 other routine work. We have a large quantity of trees now 

 ready for the coming planting season. A number of new species 

 are making a good growth and look very promising. 



Honolulu Watershed Planting. 



During the month the districts infested by the Cacsalpinia b on- 

 due was gone over and all the sprouts and seedlings that could 

 be seen dug out and destroyed. The damp weather has caused 

 many of the seeds of this plant to sprout up. We have had also 

 an extra growth of grass and weeds among the young trees 

 which had to be attended to. We expect to get back to making 

 holes and planting soon. We have a large quantity of koa 

 plants ready for the coming planting season.
