Coonnut. It gets into bearing after the Afth or sixth year after planting and constantly thereafter for practically “all time to come." It requires less attention and less expense for gathering the nuts than perhaps any other permanent crop... Cocoanut oil has an assured position in the world's market, and the uses to which it can be put are increasing every day. There are probably 70,000,000 coconut trees in the Philippines, of which about 40,000,000 are already bearing fruit. Ap proximately 760,000 acres are planted to coconut trees. This deed is huta Tall fraction of the land adapted to cocoanut growing, As the tree thrives in all is lands of the archipelago, plantations can The ex- ba. started almost everywhere. portation of cocoanut oil in 1918 was less than $4,000,000; in 1938 it jumped to $32,00,000.
