MACADAMIA PLANTING AGEEEMENT 
The agreement with Mr. E. S. Van Tassel for the planting of 20 
acres of land in the Eound Top Forest Eeserve with macadamia nut 
trees, which was authorized by the Board on May 11, 1922, was exe- 
cuted on May 11, and the squatters w^ho were using the land temporarily 
have been notified to move off before the tree planting begins in the 
fall. 
SEED FEOM NEW ZEALAND 
On May 8, Mr. James Munro brought in from New Zealand and do- 
nated to the Division of Forestry for propagation the following seed, 
most of which are from valuable timber trees: 
Miro Podocarpus ferrugineus 
Matai j Podocarpus spicatus 
Totara Podocarpus totara 
Kahikatea Podocarpus dacrydioides 
Pouriri Vitex lucens 
Kohai Sophora tetraptera 
Tawa Beilsclimiedia tawa 
Spiderwood Dracopliyllum latifolium 
Kauri Agathis australis 
On May 4, a request was sent to the Department of Agriculture in 
Washington, D. C. for some seeds of the Olneya Tesota, a bean tree 
of Arizona which has good forage value and which, it is felt, will be an 
addition to our flora. 
FOEEST FENCING 
Progress is being made in the fencing on the Hilo Forest Boundary 
and work was started during the month on several new sections of the 
line so it is hoped that it will be possible to fence all boundaries cross- 
ing governmental lands during the summer while good weather prevails. 
In Olaa two homesteaders are building fences, in cooperation with this 
Division, which will protect 3.80 miles of forest boundary. Mr. Herbert 
C. Shipman has agreed to rebuild the fence for a distance of 2.75 miles, 
protecting the forest reserve strips on the west side of the Volcano 
Road in Olaa from 19% to 22 Miles, this Division furnishing the wire. 
Eanger Mackenzie repaired .75 mile of fence on the boundaries of 
Section A of the Olaa Forest Park Eeserve, Hawaii, and at Kuli- 
ouou, Oahu a short stretch of fence .07 mile long was constructed by 
Eanger Ellis to prevent cattle from getting around the old fence into 
the forest reserve.
