L awn 3 - A Kugenia tree on the western 'border of the jungle 
area fell during a storm, was cut up and removed. 
Lawn T - Grass cutting.

Lawns U ^ V - Gardens Jungle. The new trees planted three 
months ago were cleared of climbers growing round them. 
A large dead tree on the Oluny Rood boundary was felled, 
as it was dangei*ou8, and a Quercus spreading too much 
over the Hogie entrance was pruned of several branches. 
Lawn W - Grass cutting and weeding. All the young palms recently 
dug on this lawn were given a top-dress in'g of ferti- 
lizer. 
Lawn X - Grass catting. The old 3un Rockery thoroughly weeded, 
and new plants of Isotoma longiflora put out and 
labelled. An old Arenga palm fell in a storm and was 
removed. 
Lawn Y - (For Vegetable Garden, see separate ret:>ort). A very 
large Oil Palm, damaged near the base by a shell, 
fell and brought down a large bamboo clump with it. 
Clearing these occupied much labour. The result will 
be a little more room and light on the west side of 
the nursery. 
Lawn Z - Pahudla rhomboidea . an interesting and useful leguminous 
tree from the Philippines, flowered for the first time. 
It was introduced by seed in 191B, but had lost its 
label and was wrongly named until the flowers estab- 
lished its identity. 
Two new beds were dug on the old tennis court in front of 
the Asst. Director’s house, to accommodate further Gannas. The 
work of transplanting a complete set of Cannae to this area, 
after propagation in sand beds to free them if possible from 
disease, was not quite completed. The seedling Bougainvilleas 
made very good new growth, and were -re-staked and pruned. A 
few more seedling Hippeastrum bulbs flowered and were trans- 
planted for further trial. 
Area round Gardens Quarters north of Cluny Road . The areas 
round the cooly lines were kept clean as usual, and grass cut- 
tings, domestic refuse etc. made into compost for manuring the 
men’s vegetable beds. The area round the former Asst. Botanist’s 
Qrs. (now occupied by military) had been left, as our men had 
been told not to go there, for several months past. It was not 
cleaned by the military, and ^ had grown up thickly with lallang 
and weeds, which were removed uurl ng the latter part of the 
moiith, upon a request fi'om military headquarters. This work took 
much labour.
