Mr. von Holt said that there was nothing before the Com- 
mittee on Forestry on which to report. 
In regard to the Division of Forestry supplying trees to 
individuals and corporations in very large quantities, the 
Board, after some discussion, voted that the Superintendent 
of Forestry be instructed to make the necessary arrange-

demands, the Board furnishing the supplies and possibly 
erecting another propagating house ; it being understood, 
however, that the cost of the extra labor necessary for this 
work be borne by the individuals or corporations ordering

Mr. Hosmer said that he was about to submit to the Com-

It is intended to use a part of this money for starting groves 
of Eucalypts new to Hawaii, and other exotic trees at 
several places throughout the islands. One such plantation 
has already been begun in Nuuanu Valley. 
EXPERIMENTAL TREE PLANTING.
