eaten by cannibals at Goaribari,
met Robert Louis Stevenson on n

HOW COFFEE TREES GROW

Natives Eat Fruit Which Looks

Conee usually is spoken Of as q
Derry or bean, but that part of the
conee tree that we use is really the
seed. The trees grow naturally to
height Of from 20 to 80 feet. but
this natural growth Is checked by
the growers, who keep the trees as
low as five feet. The cutting does
not inJure the tree and it is far
more convenient to gather the
fruit.
The coffee tree begins to bear

and 1t continues for about 20
years, the singular fact about II

we eat cherries. Each berry con-

And the birds to join in their plea

The fields are turning green,
And farmers everywhere are seen;

Mending fences and killing the weed
The squirrels chatter, run and play,
All through this warm spring day;
The pussy willows bob and sway,
And all nature is bright and gay.
