l'ulllnr 'Punted Failure to Sneerer.
Just prior to Air. Collins' bevonling
Interested In the property un the
bench, n company had beenorganized.
of which 11 r. E. T. Field and a Mr.
Unhnrn were the primo plovers. who
also "had n v181011' about fuUnre
wealth to be made by planting cocoa-
nuts up 111121 dawn the bench from as
far north ux 1'221111 neaeh 111 b,•low Co-

figured out that' when the trees were
bearing they would ',(ford n yield av-

uut to each tree every day lit the
year.
','hese men rhurterod 31(11 boats 111121
sent In the Island of 'Trinidad for their
,rrumiscuous planting along the beach.
rhe first boat load consisted of (30,-
000 nuts. The two following winters
they brought up and planted In at elmt-
Inr way 117,000 nuts each winter, or
a total of 331,000 cocoanuts. Owing
to the natural Lnurcox1lbllily of the
land, difficulty In landing the nuts
and planting thein, ranch more money
woe needed that they had anticipated
and about the eecund ..axon after 31r.
Collins had begun development they
prevailed upon him for financial as-
sistance. I(e.loaned them 15,000 but
still their financial difficulties were
not solved. Many of the members of
the company became discouraged and
dropped out of the venture and It
reached a point finally when Mr. 1•'Irld
and Mr. Collins were the only .ones
let In the cocoanut enterprise.
Mr. Field was It man of much more
morrow vI,ws I11 all 11In devolopnn•nte
than Mr. Collins and on this account
their relations arson ceased but owing
to the primitive conditions of the
country and laclvof care, moat of the
cocoanut trees were eaten off by the
rabbits before they had obtained suftl-
clunt growth to withstand the ravages
of theae pests. Mr. Collins being a
much more fur -sighted and practical
man soon dropped the co1Joulut enter-
prise as futile at the time and finally
turned It to rllccess by punting avo-
cados and mangos.
Planted 7.000 Avec-ado Tree■
The original planting of avocados
was In 1910 and Included about 7,000
young trees. About 1,000 !laden and
Mulgobn mangos were also set ut the
time. Many of these trees perished
from climatic and other conditions.
and the final cost of bringing the
'grove Into bearing has been much
larger and amore dlacouruglug than a
less courageous and tenacious man
would have continued. But It is now
paying, even though for various rea-
sone its cost of maintenance hue been
much heavier than would be the aver-
age now at the beach or elsewhere
on the mainland.
Tho grove has for the past three or
four years yielded thousands of boxes
of fine avocados and 300 to 500 boxes
of mangos annually. Much of this
fruit has brought In the northern cit-
ies an average of around 110 to 015
per box and much higher prices have
been received for early and lute ship-
ments.
Beelde3 the avocados and mangos,

and brought into splendid fruitage.
11 woe but natural of 100330, that

In the organization of the 111111(11 Beach
