TREE NUESERIES 
The five general nurseries of the Division have heen in active operation 
and have functioned well as propagators and distributors of forest, 
ornamental and shade trees throughout the Territory. The nursery at 
Kalaheo, Kauai, has been moved to a new location and refitted and the 
Hilo, Hawaii, and Haiku, Maui, nurseries have each been equipped with 
steam soil sterilizers which have already produced economical results.
