"Ilere, captain, two for cent, take

Hoe They Gather Csceaamfs fs

49," @"sb >~sO""" -
Cocoanut forests Of thousand ds OF
acres are spread over the plain back of
Gale. The trees run up without knot
or limb from thirty to eighty feet to
the branches that bear the fruit. A
matured tree is only about one foot to
a foot and half in circumference at
the base, and il maintains nearly this
size all the way up. How is the fruit
gathered at such a height? The cool
les climb these trees like squirrels;
they placea rope around the legs near
the ankles, so as to hold them in posi-
tion around the tree, and then without
spur or other artificial help, they climb
up with astonishing celeri;y, gather the
fruit, and drop it ON the ground. A
single tree produces about dozen CO.
coanuts, and the coolie harvester is
allowed one for gathering the fruit of
each tree. These cocoanut forests are
really beautiful, presenting symmetri-
cal growth, graceful proportions, and
charming shade. The fruit itself, with
the inclosed milk, affords healthful
.ood and cooling drink it is a source
of considerable revenue from export I;
the fibre of the shell is largely utilized
for the manufacture of cloth and rope.
Next to coffee. the cocoanut is the most
important and valuable product OF this
ISLAND.

and called to his father and asked him
it he had kille'l anything. Receiving
no answer, he went to where his father
lay and found him dead by a fence.
He was shot through the heart, and
the supposition is that he was drawing
his gun through the fence, when it
was accidentally discharged. Mr..
