Advocates of universal peace
who really want war to stop anC
the parliament of man to sit per.
manently at the Hague or else
where, ought to secure the ser,
vices of a gentleman who it seems
about year ago did up" Pres
ident Zelaya of Nicaragua. The
story has just come to light, but
it seems one of the best war dis
cOuraging schemes that has been
worked lately. Of course, trouble
is always brewing in Central A.
merica. The little group of 18TH
mian republics are to the United
States what the Balkans are to
Europe. If there is not a fight
either brewing or progressing
there, it is a very bad season for
fighting. The man who tripped
up Zelaya has not yet been dis
covered. If he is, Central Amer
lea will not be any healthful sum-
mer resort for him. But it hap
pened in this wise.
President Zelaya knew that
trouble with the neighboring
Central American states was over
due. He wanted guns and am
munition to be prepared for the
next row, and he was advised by
one of the Nicaraguan consuls in
the United States that there was
a big consignment of arms left
over from the late unsuccessful
Cuban revolution. These could
be bought at bargain figures,
something like 81 each for guns
that ordinarily cost SIS. An or
der for the arms and ammunition
was accordingly given, and they
were shipped for Nicaragua and
SIS, 600 paid against the invoice.
The cases arrived intact, and
were secretly taken to the capi-
tai, for the president did not care
about advertising his purchase.
But when the boxes were opened,
they were found to contain a
choice assortment of scrap iron,
brickbats, and paving stones.
Nicaragua is still looking for the
agent who sold her the shipment
of arms, but she has not found
him, and is not apt to. Howev-
er, he is certainly an agent of
peace, and his services might
well be secured by the eminent
arbitration advocates at the
Hague.

would naturally be greater per tree than when planting exclu- sively for poles, but, sBpposing it would double that amount, say 10 cents per tree all told, there is no other expense except the land, which may be almost any price, but we are convinced that good eucalyptus land can be bought in Southern California at prices ranging from S20 to $50 an acre, according to location.
 We can, therefore, safely place the cost of a eucalyptus grove with 800 trees to the acre at $100 per acre. That would in- clude first-class land, well To- cated. The results would, of course, be governed by the length of time the trees are left standing and the price of lumber at that time, which doubtless would be much higher than at present, as fifteen or twenty years hence we shall be close on the heels of a timber famine.
 The older the tree the better the sawed timber, but by placing the time of cutting fifteen years from the time of planting, we are warrented by experience and observation in saying that the first sixteen feet of each tree will cut 150 feet of inch boards. As we are making a very con- servative estimate, we will place the cut at only 100 feet, with the supposition that it will take half of that to cut and saw it, which will leave but fifty feet to each tree, or 25,000 feet to the acre.
 As to it's future value we will make no prediction it may be worth 1920 or even 30 cents per foot, but we will estimate it at the present price of common pine lumber-3 cents per foot, or $1. 50 per tree. As the trees would probably be over 100 feet in height at the time of cutting, the balance of the trees would easily bring $1 for poles and wood. This would place each tree at the low price of $2. 50, or $1260 per acre, or $125, 900 for a 10O-acre grove costing less than $1O,OOO
 Now this looks like an enor- nous percentage on a fifteen year investment, yet every indi- cation points to three or four times that amount. Why will capital permit a timber famine?

EUCALYPTUS
 POSSIBILITIES
Conservative Estimates of Its Worth
 Flattering. Its Values Many

more attention in California as it's many values are learned. Some extensive eucalyptus ex- periments are to be tried soon in Imperial Valley and many for estry experts predict that it will be one of the important products of this region. D. c. Burson, writing for the Los Angeles Times answers various questions in regard to the care and uses of the trees as follows;
 What kind of soil, and how should it be prepared for the suc- cessful growing of the eucalyp- tus?"
 Any good land free from alkali or hardpan. In fact, it is tree adapted to great variety of soils, yet the better the land the greater the growth. The pre- paration of the land depends largely upon the condition of the soil, but in all cases I would ad- wise deep blowing. And should there be clay or tough subsoil, I would use a SubsOil blow. Work the surface until it is per fectfy pliable-
 "How often and how long should the young trees be irriga- tedW
 That also depends upon con- ditions, High, dry land, where water is a long way from the surface, requires pretty thorough irrigating, sufficient at least, to keep the root moist through the hot dry season, for at least two summers. Low moist land would not require more than one season of irrigation.
 Is 6x6 feet far enough apart to plant the eucalyptus for all practical purposes?
 I would say if your object is poles or spares, it is, but if the object is saw timber (which is doubtless the most profitable part of eucalyptus growing) 1 would give more room on account of having it grow several years longer before cutting; 8x8 will give sufficient space for growing large trees.
 What other values, except for poles, spares, ties and wood, does the eucalyptus possess?"
 In answer to this question l am led to believe from recent in- vestigations that these should be classed among it's minor values, for it has been discovered that eucalyptus lumber is susceptible to very fine finish and as the different verieties possess vari- ous shades and colors, It has an untold value for furniture, office work or inside of cars, or fine houses. Numerous samples of this wood, polished, can be seen in Los Angeles. It requires an expert to see the difference be- tween the E. Rostsata (red gum) and San Domingo mahogany. And it is we'll known that mahog- any commands an enormous price in our eastern markets.
 It would therefore, (from present investigations and dis coveries) be impossible to place a future value upon the lumber of this important tree. And vet
