tenancy is impossible, either here or
elsewhere, at rental of $50 per
acre per annum and upwards, unless

at the same time 'can hardly be-

not wonder that any one with a

needs TO be told that strawberries
are sadly deteriorated by the process
of washing. Yet unwashed straw
berries are no iilthier than every
other article brought round in Johns
basket, only descriptions with pro-
tccting rinds being safe.
There is no necessity, in this
article, to discuss by whom our
necessary supplies Of fruit and
vegetables are to be provided-Mon-
golian, Malayan or Caucasian-but
we would conclude these few re-
marks, to use the modest termin-
ology of the platform, by urging
upon our readers the great impor-
tance to this city and country of
improving the means of promoting
horticultural knowledge, both theo-
retical and such rs experience has
made practical beyond dispute for
our climate and soil. This division
of the subject is worthy of some
pretty extensive special writing up.
Correspondents who know enough TO
know that they either know or do
not know what they are writing
about are welcome to give their
thoughts upon the matter through
these columns. SO far every one OF
our correspondents upon vegetable
raising has added to the general
stock of accurate information upon
the subject.

he says that rents are the same now.
generally, as they were at the time
when gardens paid, year after year,
two or three hundred percent profit.
True, those gardens that were leased
in cheap times at reasonable rates
and for long periods remain the
same, but most of those started
within the last four or five years
have been taken at considerable
advance. Moreover, Mr.. Marques
will discover on investigation that
the old gardens, taken at low rates,
for the most part continue opera
tions all over the district.
Your correspondent, ''Kamaaina," ="
has struck at least one nail right
straight on the head. Neither the
Chinaman nor the native knows how
to raise good vegetables. The repu-
tation which John has, both here
and elsewhere, of being good
kitchen gardener, is one which he
does not deserve. Most vegetables
of which foreigners are fond can be
raised in this district, and of n
quality superior to the Chinaman's 5
best. Proper cultivation and bring
ing to maturity before plucliing are
the two main things to be adhered
to. There is no vegetable grown
here and supplied to the market that
is not of poorer quality than it would
be if these two things were attended
to. | speak somewhat positively,
claiming to possess at least a little
practical knowledge of the subject.
Iknow one practical and experienced
white man who has been long desir-
Gus of going into vegetable raising
here, but has never been able to get
suitable land at paying price.

discussion of the subject Of vcge-
table raising, which has been con-
Quoted for some time in this paper,
and elsewhere, will have good re-
suits. Legitimate discussion of live
subjects must have effects more or
less beneficial. In this case a good
deal of useful information has been
elected, which, on the one hand,
will induce caution in persons whose
enterprise is ahead of their expert
ence, and, on the other, may awake
enterprise in some who arc letting
experience, opportunity and means
rust when they should employ them
to the advantage of themselves and
of the country in which they live.
-Four propositions seem to be pretty
we'll established by the discussion in
question: 1st, that the local market
is very poorly supplied with fresh
vegetables, such as are demanded in
this climate for a wholesome dietary
2ndly, that the business is wholly in
the hands of the Chinese, whose
main object is to realize in the
speediest time possible upon their
crops, the consequence being Il very
Door article for human food is fur
nished by them; 3rdly,-that, owing
to exorbitant rents, the cheap cul-
ture of the Chinese not only does
not yield Il profit but scarce affords
even the frugal living required by that
nationality, and hence would pro-
duce worse than bcggarly subsist-
ence to people with any the smallest
share of modern civilized tastes ::
and, 4thly, that competent instruc-
ton in horticulture is one Of the
greatest wants Of the time.
Every individual human constitu-
ton in this climate, if in normal
state, cannot but respond with re-
echoing assent to the statement that
pure, ripe and fresh vegetables and
fruit are among the prime neces-
saries of healthful existence here.
At the same time no one who has
dwelt here week can help observ-
ing that those very things are con-
spicuously lacking. Even the ba'
mana of local commerce is in largo
measure rs insipid as it should be
luscious, because it is cultivated
with ignorance and cullcd with i'm
beetle disregard to natures rules
Let the souls loathing the everlasting
