ALL ABOUT CoCOANUTS.
How the Planters of Jamaica Raise Them
and What Results Aserward.


and What Results Afferward.
The bureau of the American republics has
received an interesting and minute description
Of the method of cultivating the cocoanut
upon the Island OF Jamaica. The several vari-
cites Of cocoanuts are distinguished by shape
and size and the thickness Of the husk and the
flesh part of meat. The curacao is very large
nut, with thick husk and meat The maiden
variety is very small and grows in large punches.
and while the curacao seldom has more than
six or seven nuts 10 the bunch there was re-
Gently exhibited a bunch which contained
thirty-nine nuts Of the maiden variety. The
curacao produces the largest amount OF oil,
usually averaging twelve quarts TO one hundred
nuts, about three gallons more than any other
variety. In sproutiug the cocosnut the fsttest
of Its three sides should be laid on the ground
and should be SO inclined that the water or
milk will flow toward the eyes. The uppermost
ridge should be Clipped 10 allow the moisture
TO penetrate, causing the eyes TO grow
more quickly. plantation usually will
commence TO bear IN seven years and be
in full bearing in ten years. Generally the nuts
are permitted to fall 10 the ground, and are
gathered every day or two and taken to the
store house. The greater part of the nuts
shipped from Jamaica go to America and Can
ada. although a considerable quantity 60 to
England and the continent In shipping to the
first named countries all the nuts are husked,
while they are sent to Europe in the husks
The average price realized by the producer is
2 cents per nut. Such growers, instead of
shipping the nuts, prefer TO extract the oil.
which is done by very simple process. After
being husked the nuts are broken up and the
pieces laid near a fire until the meat will come
AWAY from the shell. Then the meat is washed,
the thin black skin that lies between il and the
shell not being removed. After being washed
the meat is grated. placed in a vat, boiling
water poured over II and the whole strained.
When the water cools the oil floats on the top
and is skinned off and cooled and is ready for
shipment. The oil sells for IL cents per pint
bottle. 1t is now proposed to introduce into
Jamaica the manufacture of cocoanut butter

The organ at Plymouth church has been
undergoing repairs all summer, which are
now completed, and yesterday c. H Morse,
the organist, invited half a dozen of his
fellow orgsnists of the two cities to drop
in Informally and try the instrument The
rain prevented the organists from coming,
but Mr.. Morse's tests, made for few en-
thusiasts who braved the storm, showed
that the Plymouth organ once more holds
the same relative place among the modern
great organs of the country which the
original organ held when it was built
nearly thirty years ago. The richness,
smoothness and beauty of its tone are now
unsurpassed certainly in Brooklyn. The
instrument was placed in 1866 at cost Of
s27 600. The money for rebuilding is from
bequest of Mrs. Emma Abbott Wetherell,
the opera singer, and the organ front dis

She fastens up the curtains and portieres,

Finally she dampens several papers and
