222 QUEENSLAND AGRICULTURAL JOURNAL. [1 Sepr., 1902. 
IN TROPICAL QUEENSLAND 
Continue the planting of bananas. Sow paddy, plant yams, turmeric, sugar- 
cane, and coffee. Whenever manure is needed, apply stable, cowyard, or 
meatworks manure. Stake any yams which have begun to climb. Trim olive- 
trees. Plant out sisal hemp suckers. Keep the coffee plantation clean. In 
Some seasons coffee-trees will bloom during this month. A small picking of 
Liberian coffee may be made. It is not wise to sow coffee seed now which was 
picked in the earlier months of the year, germination being doubtful. Sugar- 
cane crushing will be continued wherever the great drought has allowed the 
cane to grow to a fair height.
