About sixteen years ago a Bahama
vessel was wrecked off the coast, neat*
Jupiter inlet. Soon lifter the waves be­
gan bringing the cargo ashore, among
which were found a large number of
cocoanuts. Residents were very few ill
this section at that time, but they
gathered together and appropriated
whatever camo to them.
These cocoanuts were considereil great
prizes and were nt once planted. Tlie
soil was found to be favorable to the
growth and they thrived wonderfully.
Thus was introdneed the culture of the
nut upon the soil of the North American
continent. In Dude county, one of the
southernmost cminties of the state,
which has n sea front of ISO miles, there
nre now groves of great lx,.uty contain­
ing from 100 to 6,00<< trees.
Coeoanut cnlturo is very simple. The
rilHi nut iB plucked from the tree and, in
tho outer husk that surrounds it. is put
under ground, lightly covered with soil.
The first shixit should make its appear­
ance in one month after planting, but it
is often two before it cornea, When it is

planted as a nursery stock the husk is
left on, as tho young plant is very ten
dcr, and it seems that a growth out ol
the husk has a tendency to make strong
the reedliko joints, if it lie first planted
where it is to remain the husk is usually
removed.
For the first year the plant requires
careful protection from the winds, but
it gradually grows hardy, and at tlieeml
of six years begins bearing. Tho blixims
make their nppearnnee--a dozen OT more
lingers, looking like grains of corn strung
on wire about n foot in length. These
grains ure young nuts.
They ripen in a year’s time, anil there­
after until its death the tree is never
without fruit in various stages of ripe­
ness, from 11 tiny lobe the size of a |x*a
to ripe nuts, and there is not a day in
tlie year when tho ripe nuts cannot lx>

what ago they live lias not been ascer­

The trees make a most beautiful and
inqxising grove, Ixiing truly tropical in
their apix-arance. As they are planted
only alsmt twenty feet apart, they cast
a thick, unvarying shiulo. They ar ever­
green, as is most tropical foliage, and
their gracefulness, with the great height
they attain, makes them a desirable ad­
dition to a homo in the far south. The
diameter of tho tree ranges from one
fixit to four, and they attain a height of
125 feet, having as many us 460 nuts oil
them at one time.
The old fashioned inotlmd of grating

tho southern country keep on hand for
tlieir uso a fresh supply of homemade

product is becoming more generally
known by reason of its excellent fiber,
and the "cloth," n strong, libruue bark,

utilized in many ways. If the nee of
