COCOANUT TREE ONE
Of THE MOST USEFUL

1t is more than coincidence that
the tree which furnishes a greater
amount of valuable material t, man
than any other in the vast kingdom
of vegetables is the first to spring up
on the bare rocks of the newly-arisen
coral reef. The cocoanut, SO formed
that it may have hoated half way
across the Pacific. is thus universally
distributed throughout tropical is
lands.
1t thrives best near the sea, seldom
penetrating far into the interior Its
hard shell is coat of mail for the
embryo plant. enabling it to stand hard
usage for protraeted period and
locking up securely the precious life

The fbrous husk which envelops it.,
and is seldom seen in the market on
account of the greatly increased bulk,
breaks the jar which would be inev-
liable should the hard nut fall unpro-
tected from the tall tree to the ground
SO or 80 feet below.
Such a blow would scarcely fail to
break the shell, oecasioning the loss
of the nourishing milk SO necessary to
the germ. The outer husk not only
breaks the jar of fall, but buoys 1t
up on the water, while the tough outer
cuticle is waterproof, says the New
Age.
Thus is the tree which offers to man
almost in the raw state all his necessi-

withstand. Ensign Monaghan died
