The Row in Central America.

That little affair in Central America.
in which Uncle Sam is likely to take Il
part long enough to spank the bclligcr-
ants, has not yet assumed the proper
tions Of a war that Will figure largely
on history's pages. TO be sure there
is lots of talk and some fighting. but
happily the casualties are very few.
AS battles in Central America usually
involve only small forces, and as the
troops are without much discipline and
poorly armed. the losses are. as u rule,
not very great. This implies no retlcc-
ton on the courage or patriotism "i
the contcnding forces. but is due en-
ltirely to the peculiar conditions exist
ing, the character of the country and
the absence of trained military forces
as such things are understood i'll other
parts of the world.
n The most important development of
the past week or ten days has been the
open siding of Salvador with Honduras
1t was understood that an agreemcn,
existed between Honduras and Saliva
dor that the one would come to the aid
of the other i'm the event of invasion
/ of the territory of either. As Nicara-
qua has admittedly invaded Honduras
{ the condition was brought about which
called for the promised assistance
/ For a time ii was believed that Saliva
dor would refuse to aid her ally, but
it now appears that such an idea was
unjustifeti This action of Salvador
ought to more than equalize the armed
strength of the contending forces. and
it is believed by many that it presages
the taking part in the war of other
Central American states than those
now engaged Guatemala is known t
be in sympathy with Honduras and
opposed to the Zelaya Government OF
Nicaragua, and it would probably not
require much persuading to induce the

Making Denatured Alcohol.

Fl There has been a lot of misunder.
standing as to the industrial POSSIBLE
ties offered by the full alcohol law
passed at the last session of Congress
"A writer in the Baltimore American
who seems to speak with authority
gives us a lot of light on this subject
which will be welcomed, as the govern
ment bulletins giving information on il
are yet to be issued. 1t is not exact
.ly a please law. Those who
undertake to manufacture alcohol
even in small quantities for motor pur-
poses, must comply with certain stipu-
Nations and conditions, and it will be
well for those contemplating the manu-
facture to seek information from the
Internal Revenue Department. 1t will
DO readily comprehended that bond
must be given to guarantee the gov
crnmcnt against fraud. The alcohol
treated with a poison or some other
mixture that will render it entirely
unfit for human use.
The law does not become operative
until next September, but after that
date the farmer who complies with the
conditions may manufacture 100 gal
ions per day, but no more during any
"a hours. AS there are at least %
working days in a month, however, he
may manufacture $500 gallons month
ly, or 10000 gallons per year. The
small manufacturer who shall produce
up to the limit, If his commodity brings
him twenty cents the gallon, will dis
pose of 5000 worth of the liquid fuel
during the year. There is much in
formation that should be acquired with
regard to the industry. and it is likely
that the Secretary of Agriculture will
issue an explanatory circular giving
needed enlightenment.
Many farmers will naturally want to
know what sort of surplus material

ing this newly demanded motive fuel.
Dr. Wiley, of the Agricultural Bureau,
recently declared that enough alcohol
can be manufactured from the corn
stalks in the United States to run all
the engines of all the factories in the
world. If the cornstalks could be
used soon after the cutting at the au
tumn harvest there is no question that
the juice yield and the consequent al
cohol crop would be rich one. AL
cohol can be made from the dried
stalks, or from sawdust, for that mat
ter, but it is to be determined just
what material is rich enough in juices
to profitably be devoted to the pur-
pose. 1t is of significance that Ger
many uses up a very large percentage
OF the immense national potato crop
to manufacture fuel alcohol. If this
can be done with profit, it would seem
that a vegetable substance of no food
value, like the cornstalks, could surely
be turned to profitable account in the
new industry.
