Cocoa. Cncao and Coca.

In the United States the, taste for
chocolate is growing with the greatest
rapidity. Right here is a good place to
settle the difference between tie words
cocoa. cacao ana coca. Cocoa is the
name of the palm tree which produces
the cocoanut, fruit too we'll known to
every one to need description.
Cacao is the fruit of another tree
which grows in tropical America ard
in some parts Of Asia and Africa. 1t IL
from this tree that we obtain chocolate.
The finest bean comes from L,lzon. in

Cocasis the name given to shrub of
South America. the leaves Of which are
