DEAR SIR In a late number of your paper | saw
something mentioned about the vi treA There are
some eleven or twelve here, about three u RS old, and
planted in various situations, from 1000 1000 Feet
above the level of the sea. Those loves grow the
best, and we think look finely.
The peach grows very ~rapidly-that is, from the
seed. The grated fruit does not grow 30 well. II
allowed to shoot only below the graft, it grows well
The graft wiHOform little punches on the end of each
twig, and remain in that way a long time, at no time
growing equal to the natural fruit. We have found
a new way-atl least new to us-of improving the
peach. Take a limb near the ground, cut it partly
off, bend it down, and cover it with earth it Will
soon take root, after which transplant il. This new
fruit viii be much better than the parent tree, al
though not SO large. | have seen this tried several
times, and always with success.
We. have the apple, pear and plum, as well as the
ounce. Apples, pears and plums are troubled 1.-The
same way as the grated peach. [ have seen one s-
pie tree that looked tolerably well. We have the
chiTimoyo, or custard apple, and think them as good,
as the best, although they may not be equal to some
others that you mention. 1t is only a bush here
The mango tree, which we have, is very handsome
being of rather a Sat sugarloaf shape. Let SOME one
else praise the fruit | cannot. Of oranges, we have
the best the Islands produce. In 1850, there wen
100000 shipped from this district. There are mar!
more trees in bearing now. The price last year wa
one dollar per hundred. There will be bu: a Small
crop this year.
Coffee is increasing. Natives are planting cOnsid-
cradle, but the crop this year will be small, in conse
quence of an insect which has injured much oft.
Yours, truly, KoNA HEaL
r. SIN reading over the remarks of IN. h"is
brand, in No. GO of your paper, respecting the inse.
that Is on coffee and other plants, / notice ths'@
mentions the circumstance that it never existed net
before. | have noticed it for several years here nc"
the seaside, on one thing in particular, viz, pump
kins !; also, on a coffee tree in Capt. Makee's gArleM
in Nuuanu Valley--I think the first year he lseln
the valley. Its habits [ know nothing about ~
year it attacked, in Kona, coffee in one place 0n!'
that know of, a small patch of indigo, a few gua,n
aud orange trees This year it attacks coffee. guuSS
orange, indigo, banana, kukui, and the weed cansi
in the Eastern States Spanish needle. have nouI as
the kukui trees attacked mostly on the southern SUI
very little on the north side. 1t kills all the lnuss
coffee plants, but the trunk it does not kill. In cD-.
it does not attack the whole-only here and thet
tree. Last year | noticed one tree taken in a lot
other touched. This was a large tree, more eAPosfT
to sun and air than most of the trees in the lo,. II
does not seem to hurt it. n"
