Graceful Cocoa Palms.

The cocoa palm is one of the most
beautiful and attractive naturdt adorn-
ments Of many Of the public parks
and private gardens in Brazil, often
attaining a height of from eighty to
ninety feet The trunk is without
branches, and the leaves, which clus-
ter in a tuft at the top, are from If
teen to twenty feet in length. At the
base of the leaves the nuts hang in
clusters, the number varying from three
to fifteen, according to the age and
condition Of the tree. Occasionally CO.
Goa palms are found which do not
bear nuts, and these attain even Il
greater height, their sterility seeming
to augment their virility and couse-
quent attractiveness.
