THE BOTANIC GARDENS, SINGAPORE 
The outside work dealt chiefly with general maintenance, the develop¬ 
ment of the schemes begun in past years and the general cultivation of the 
more recent plantings. There were, unfortunately, rather heavy losses of 
big trees so that much time was spent in removing the dead wood. At the 
close of the year, considerable alterations were made at the foot of the lake 
in conjunction with the annual lifting and manuring of the Canna-beds.
