KunKjuat (('it run Japoniea Thumb.) or kin-kan, 

 is a native of China, or Cochin China, but it 

 has long been known in Hawaii. The fruits 

 are small, round or oval, and are orange- 

 like in appearance. In America it is com- 

 ing to be prized as a preserve: the sweet 

 rind and the pulp may be eaten raw. The 

 Chinese make excellent preserves of the 

 fruit. Only the attacks of insect pests pre- 

 vent this fruit from more general cultivation 

 in the islands. The rich green dense foliage 

 makes a truly orniimental as well as useful 

 tree.
