A forest of Eucalyptus is something
magnificent. Stately in proportion, the
trees tower tall and straight above any
OF our indigenous species of the South,
growing 50 close together az to form an
almost impenetrable shade. Altogether
it is a spectacle to gladden. ones eyes
in this "dry and thirsty land" Mil
lions are already planted. and hundreds
of thousands are annually planted be-
cause of the valuable qualities Of the
Eucalyptus as forest tree. Quick in
its growth, it is an unfailing source Of
supply of fuel and valuable timber in a
land where wood and lumber are scarce.
In San Diego county these trees are ex-
tensively grown for fuel, but thousands
of them are also annually planted for
their beauty, as shade or ornamental
trees in parks and along avenues, while
other thousands are planted as wind
breaks to young orchards, for which
they are we'll adapted.
The Eucalyptus is easily propagated
from the seed, pound of which may he
obtained for So. From this quantity of
good seed over three thousand trees can
be raised. The first seedlings sold in
California, imported from Australia, Did
at auction at IS apiece. To-day they are
worth cent plant.
The Eucalyptus thrives on the poor
est soil, and once established firmly re-
quires no further care or attention. 1t
seems to do best On the sandy bottoms
but may also be made to do we'll on the
higher mesa lands if once it is able to
establish itself, when it will send its
roots down long way where it can get
an unfailing water supply. That its
culture on cheap lands is exceedingly
profitable needs no further demons trAtion
in California. A Eucalyptus forest may
be cut down once in every five (some
say three) years to advantage, when
new shoots will start from the stumps
and a new forest arise from the ruins of
the old, and without the first expense of
either blowing, cultivatIng or irrigating,
since the roots are already established,
vigorous, healthy and uninjured by the
fall of the parent trunk.
In the presence of the invigorating
fragrance exhaled by this tree, fevers
and malaria largely lose their ter
rors. In California dry pure at
mosphere like ours, the valuable quality
of this tree, its anti-febrile properties,
has naturally been largely lost sight Of,
as compared with other more important
interests. TIE tree absorbs water with
surpr sing facility, and it is this that is
considered by many the basis of it's
prophylatic properties.
The Blue Gum or Fever-tree was in
troduced into Paris by the French CIV
eminent in 1860, and was subsequently
planted in Africa, Spain, Italy and por-
tons of France, where many large for
ests have been produced. In 1875 the
city council of Houston, Texas decided
to give the tree trial in view of the yell
low fever epidemics that had periodically
filled the city with mourning. During
187576 the city was freer than usual
from the disease, and in 1877-78, accord
ing to the health officers report, was one
of the healthiest cities in the Union. AS

A QUEER PROPHECY.
Ominous Limos ForetcliinR the Destruc-
tion of Frcnch Civilization.

Ominous Limos ForetellinR the Destruc-
tion Of Fronct Civilization.
A Belgian paper processes to have up.
earthed really curious passage out Of an
old book in the State Library of Brussels,
says the Tablet. This book was published
by Jean Stratus in Lyons in the year 1885,
and contains q number of astrological
"prophecies +" much in the style of the
more celebrated ones OF Nostradamis.
Among these is said to be the following:
Tu dois yivre OF mourir, o Gaule, soubs trots
Bo,
Deux Siecles sous Bo l., tu huulserss O
Gaule.
Tu corseras Bo H., aims to feras tombeau;
Puts soubs mitron Bo I'LL, Bis Glenn olord ton
role"
The meaning of these lines seems to be
something like this: "Thou must live and
die, o Gaul, under three Bo's. For two
centuries under Bo ]. thou shalt rise, o
Gaul. Thou shalt raise up ti) Bo H., and
thou shalt rcnd thyself into pieces. Then
under Bo ILL.,, the baker, Bis Glenn will end
thy role" The explanation Of the supposed
prophecy" is plain enough. "Bo l." is the
Bourbon dynasty, which ruled France for
two centuries-from 1889 to 1889, from
Henry w. to the outbreak of the revolu-
tion. "Bo H." Is evidently Napoleon Bona
parte, and corseras seems to be play
upon his Corsican origin. Lastly, who can
fail TO see that "Bo Ill.," the "baker," is
Boulanger! Whilst the "Bis Glen" :" who
is to bring Frances destiny to an ignomin-
ious end can only be Bis [marckl and Glenn
[enceauJ. Such Is said to be the prophecy
published In 1856 by one Jacques Nolan,
Doctor of Laws and Advocate to the Pes
iament OF Macon

ny THE WAY.

Leaving Toledo on the l.. S. g. NJ. S.
II. II. going East, we passed through
the thriving towns OF Fremont, Clyde,
Bellevue, Monroeville, Norwalk,
Wakeman and stopped off Mt Oberlin.
This place is noted for it's College and
the advanced position it took on the
questions OF the co-education OF the
sexes and the equality of the races.
In the hard fought battle for the
brotherhood of man and the dignity
OF woman, Oberlin College encoun-
tered Il bitter storm OF prejudice. Pub
lie opinion based upon antique whims
is stubborn foe to human progress.
But the college manned by leaders Of a
kindred spirit, with Oliver Cromwell
and Martin Luther, gained n deceive
victory. After an experiment which
has stood the test of years it is now
we'll understood that woman is peer
among the lords OF creation, and that
all men were endowed by their Creator
with certain inalienable rights among
which are life and liberty. In all the
departments of human experience, on
the battlefield, rs well rs in the fields
of science and literature, OF theory
and practice, men and women Of every
race or nation have commingled their
services and demonstrated u common
origin and right to mental respect
and consideration. Whether we read
the history of Candace the Queen of
the Ethiopians, or OF Victoria the
Queen of the Brittons, the writings of
Harriet Beecher Stowe, or of Charles
Dickens, the discovery of La Place or
Newton; whether we consider the
inventive genius of Erricson or of
Robert Fulton; the executive ability
of Washington or Lincoln; the military
tactics of Grant or Napoleon or turn |
our thoughts from these distinguished |
personages to those found in the COM |
mon walks of life we shall find enough |
to convince us that no man or woman |
race bear the impress Of Deity, the |
lHhSo duu llhCHCoo vi hic NiCb0ots
All that the human race need to vim
dicate the divinity of its manhood is
and encouragement. Act
ing upon this theory Oberlin has
wonders. The wilder
ness has been converted into an oasis. |
The elm, the maple, the fir tree, the
cedar, the willow, the birch, the spruce
and hemlock, the Usage, together with
a profusiOn of vines and flowers adorn |
the streets and some thirteen hun
dred students gather in the College |
halls to get inspiration under the
teaching of the higher law, to bless
the republic and the world. The
inhabitants number some four or five |
thousand, and we'll known by their
integrity, intelligence, generosity and
freedom from perjudices. Among all
the Seminaries of learning, Universe
ties and Colleges no one can offer bet
ter inducements to students of both
sexes and races who desire thorough
discipline and fine culture.
