the buds do not form simultaneously,
but at odd times throughout the said
period. The limbs ofthe trees being very
brittle, a peculiar four-sided ladder is
brought into rCquisition, and the har-
vesting pl oceeds apace.
AS fast as collected, the buds are
spread out in the sun, until they assume
a brownish color, when they are put in
the storehouse and are ready fOrmarket.
A ten year-old plantation should pro-
duce an average of twenty pounds OF
cloves to a tree. Trees OF twenty years
frequently produce upwards OF 100
pounds each.
Zanzibar, as is well known, is noted for
being the principal source OF the worlds
supply of cloves. The industry received
a serious check there in 1872, when
great hurricane swept over the Island.
It is said that at least nine-tenths OF the
trees we're destroyed at that time, so the
larger part OF those now standing are OF
new growth. 1t is reported from there
that the present season, commencing
with July 1889, is very favourable, and
that the crop will exceed that ofany pre-
vious seasons. 1t is expected in all prob
ability to amount to $4,000, 900 pounds,
averaging local value OF ten cents per
pound. Besides the Glove buds, the
stems are also gathered and form an ar
ticle of commerce, commanding about
one-fffth OF the value of cloves, and hay
ing about the same percentage ofstrength.
To this circumstance is traceable the fact
that ground cloves can frequently be
purchased in the market at lower price
than whole Agriculturist.

QUOTATIONS.
We have sold such small quantity Of
oranges so far in our domestic markets
up to date and as the fruit with few eX-
ccptions was very green, results were but
poor, hence we do not find ourselves in
aposition that would justify us in quot
ing prices, but as we now have cOnsid-
cradle fruit en-r0ute to various markets,
we hope by next issue to be able to fur
nish results Of actual sales.
We are now receiving some encourage
ment to start shipments regularly and
we believe all good fruit that is well col
ored will realize fair prices.
