Probably before these pages reach the public eye, this long-needed road will be in running order between the two cities, passing through Mount Lavonia, the comparatively cool and pleasant summer resort, Morotto, Panadura, Kalatura, Bentola, famous for its oysters and as being the half-way station, and so on, through the several shore settlements to Galle.
These varieties are usually sown in gardens when it is not convenient to have them grow up sticks, being all of a dwarf kind. The Tall Marrow-fat. The Green Marrow-fat. The Imperial Egg Pea. The Rose, or Crown Pea. The Spanish Morotto. Knight's Marrow Pea. The Grey Rouncival. The Sickle Pea. This last variety has no skin in the pods. These are used as kidney beans, as also in the usual way.
Here a man may purchase land, with secure title, and of a good tenure, at five shillings the acre; this, at least, is the upset price, though in some privileged situations it is known to have reached seventeen shillings. A house may be furnished in the Morotto style, and with luxurious contrivances for moderating the heat in the hotter levels of the island, at fifty pounds sterling.
