a climate semi-tropical in character,
where there is no danger from frost
and where insect enemies of the plant
are few and not especially destructive.
The aphis is a little troublesome. and
so is a form of scale but both have
been fought successfully by entomo-
logists. AS to soil, the pineapple is
not very particular, except I'M the
matter of moisture. Too much mois-
ture will rot the roots of the plant.
and too little will reduce the size and
juiciness of the fruit. The plant is a
rich feeder, and thrives the better for
good dressings of commercial fertil-
izer or in ground where green crops
have been plowed under.
But in still another respect the
pineapple is remarkably peculiar
fruit. 1t is almost an air plant. It's
hold in the soil is very slight, for a
vigorous kick will well nigh uproot
a sturdy plant. 1t seems to require
chiefly direct sunshine, plenty of
moisture and oxygen. The formation
OF the leaves Of the pineapple is such
that each individual leaf becomes a
channel for stream of dew that runs
right to the base of the fruit of the
plant and does not run into the
ground, but is absorbed by the one
luscious pineapple which each plant
bears.
And yet, given the proper soil and
climate, the right amount of sun
shine and rain and dew the choice Of
the variety to be grown and the most
careful cultivation is still absolutely
necessary to secure maximum re-
suits. The variety Mr.. Dole selected
was the Smooth Cayenne"-as fine
as any anywhere-and the care used
in Keeping the ground mellow and the
weeds down gives surprising regular
ity in size, ripeness and perfection
Of the fruit the fields produce. At
maturity it weighs from seven to nine
pounds, and when perfectly ripe is
luscious-as juicy and tender as a
peach.
In Hawaii wood is scarce, as it is
in almost all semi tropical climates.
Wood which does not grow outside
OF the pineapple cannot grow in it.
So pineaDples grown in such sur
roundings-picked ripe and eaten
where picked-have none Of the woody
fiber peculiar to tropical varieties.
There are advantages and disadvan-
tages about this absence of woody f.

Hawaii is no traveller 1t takes the
