THE C0COANUT TREE.
1t Has an Irresistible Craving For Salt
Water

1t Has an Irresistible Craving For Salt
Water.
IN the tropics, where the cocoanut
is Warded for planting, the nuts are
picked up when they fall from the
tree W here they have hung for about
fourteen months in ripening. 1t is a
fact not generally known" says the
Bakers Weekly, that a majority of
the nuts drop at night, which prob
ably accounts for the small loss of life
by cocoanuts falling upon the heads
OF the natives.
The action of the heavy dew at
night loosens the seal with which ma.
ture has provided the nut and allows
1t to fall. The nuts wanted for plant.
ing are either gathered into heaps or
placed under sheds, where they are
allowed to sprout before planting. in
order that good, healthy 'sprout nuts
may be selected. thus avoiding the
possibility of planting blind nuts
that would not sprout, in which case
much time would be lost in starting
the 'cocoanut walks as the orchards
are called When holes are dug about
three feet deep and twenty feet apart
the nut Is carefully placed in the hole
and covered with about one foot of
soil. The hole is filled as the sprout
grows until it reaches the surface
when it is left to itself, requiring no
further attention. Should the place
where the cocoanut is planted be any
great distance from the seashore a
quantity of salt is placed in the hole

IAN interesting story is told by a
gentleman who resided for some wears
In the tropics. He planted a cocoanut
tree behind board fence some dis.
lance from the sea- The tree grew
perfectly straight until it reached the
top of the fence, when it began to
grow toward the ocean, leaning a foot
or more. Then shed was built quite
near the fence, but several feet higher.
