THE VEGET ABLE GARDEN

Ever since Vle started the schcol ·!le have devoted much attention

to testil .g vegetables, vti th a view to f~miliarising the students wi th

the cultul'e of vegetable crops'} and to tbt· production of a vdde range

for ~- :'\e Mess Hall o Having in mind the de ::.. ·ability of encouraging

a wider use df vegetables in the tropical AL~rican dietary~ we have

considered this to be a particularly important feature of our work o

It is under the direction of Jaime Villegas o

Except du.ring the autumn, when heavy rains interfere se:riously

wi t h garden operations~ we are able to have ñVailable at all times

at least 10 varieties of vegetableso The ru~ st popular ltems are

tomatos~ lcttuce, green peppars, cabbage 9 c~rrots and beetso

We have not yet found a var1ety of green or "string" beans

which is very successful here o The Carolina or Sieva Lima bean

is a standby, though the bush Limas have nG ~ oeen successfulo All

of the beets do well practically throughout the year o Broccoli

13 quite successful but not very popularo All of the cabbage

varieties so far tried are wholly successful during practically all

the year o Cauliflower can be grown satisfactorily during the cooler

Cit~ys Fruits. The orchards planted in 1943 commenced to bear

during the year, but the only varietiss or which we have had suffi-cient fruit, so far, to be of any importr.nce are the Ponderosa and

Meyer or Chinese lemons. We need to ezpand considerably our plantings

of oranges, as this is an extremely popular fruit with students.

first fruits during the year, but the quantity was not large enough

to ~e of any consequence~ The d~grf variety Julie looks particularly

fiVQCQdos~ Due to soil condition~ ir. the particular area where

t.hB orchard was planted, the trees are suffering badly and many of

them have died~ We made a small plantine on better soil but do not

feel hopeful of developing orchards whic ~ill prove permanently

satisf~ctory unless we put them on the well-drained sandy land down

by the Yeguare river, wbere it is practica11y impossible to control

Grapes. We have one of the fine~experimental collections in

tropical America, including more than 50 vurieties. It is not to

be expected that we can 0o much with European (vinifera) gr~pes

here, because of the diseases to which they are subject? but we have

hopee for sorne of the American hybrics and especially for the

hybrids produced by Joseph Lo Fennell of the Instituto Interamerica-

The in•est igations conducted in Mexico made it obvious tha t

v alUA of the foodstuffs of \'thi:n • t is composed o In all these

~ountries there are many planes and plant r oducts \'thich are unknown

í!l other :parts of the \'torld and have r~e.,.rer been studied o

The .first step , therefore ., is to !T'ake a thorough and compre =

hensive s· .. u 1y of these little -known food Sr But such a study is not

easily ca:cried out o It involves biorhemi ~al analysis which can

only be conducted in laboratories \'there de ~Ácate and expensive

At v~e end of 1945 the United Fruit Company decided to inau=

To carry out the biochemical analys is of these samples it is

necessary to send them to the United Btates ~here laboratory faci=

lities of the right so~G are av~ilable This end of the program is

complicated by the fact that many of th~ JJods - especially such

things as green leaves and fresh fruits - mus t be preservad in

chemicals and shipped to the laboratory with minimum delay, else

certa in changes take place in their composition ~hich make it

1mpossible to ascertain their true valueo

To direct the ~ork of biochemical analysis, and to provide

technical ~uper~lsion for the project as a ~hole, the Central

American Nutrition Foundation was f'or+.una te in securing the coop=

nutritional biochem1sts to examine each sample received and ascertain

important vitaminso

Fruit Company to take care of our estimated budget of $115? 000 o00 for

maintenance and $5C,OOO oOO for betterments ~ This $225~000 o 00 grant

brought the total cash grnnted by the Unit ed Fruit Company for establish=
