on the western side of Kauai to the Nursery at Homestead, in 

 charge of Mr. Walter D. McBryde. 



A charge of from \y 2 to 2V 2 cents is made for pot-grown plants 

 and from 1 to \ l /2 cents for transplants in boxes. Seedlings in the 

 seed boxes, just ready to be transplanted, of the Iron wood (Casu- 

 arina), and of a number of the Eucalypts, such as the E. glo- 

 bulus, E. citriodora and E. robusta, can be had for $1.00 per box 

 of approximately 1,000 plants. Other species may be had at 

 about the same figure, providing the seed can be collected here 

 and that the trees grow freely. With the exception of the boxes 

 of seedlings, reductions are made on large orders. 



A great many of the plantation and ranch managers are taking- 

 advantage of the seed box system, which means a great saving on 

 the price of freight. From 3,000 to 4,000 seedlings can be shipped 

 to any port of the Islands for about 50 cents. One hundred and 

 fifty plants, in transplant boxes with 50 in each box, would cost 

 the same figure. While the freight on pot grown plants would 

 be about 50 cents per 100, providing crates were used. All per- 

 sons who may be contemplating the planting of large numbers 

 of trees and who desire to have the Division of Forestry raise 

 them, should give notice not less than three months in advance of 

 the time the seedlings are required. By doing this delay in filling 

 orders will be prevented.
