curator made a large herbarium collectién which was sent to 
Buitenzorg. Owing to economical depression the curator was 
pensioned off in 1925. The Private Deli Planters Society con- 
tinued the garden and its curator up to 1927. In 1928 the Garden 
was again declared an official establishment of the Buitenzorg 
Botanic Garden and the Head Forester of the East-coast of Su- 
matra Residency was charged with the supervision. In 1932, 
however, owing to another economical depression, no funds could 
be made available by the Buitenzorg Botanic Garden. In 1934 the 
main part of the Garden, covering 119 hectares, was declared a na- 
ture preservation. In 1936 the old Garden was again cleared and 
labeled, so that this Garden, which can be reached by car in about 
14% hour from Belawan (harbour of Medan), is still alive though 
only on a small scale at present.” (See Java: Buitenzorg.)
