If too tired for social pleasure, there are

Water Is plentiful In Guatemala, and
stream may be fouud that will furnish
water power for providing electric

us randies, aud running the necessary
machinery. There are a thousand ad
vantages to be gained, aud In this way,
farm-life can be made a enjoyable as
life In the city, and certainly more in-

Guatemala has a great future, ana Is
under a tropical sky whose climate and
soil so completely supplement thtsto of
the United Ktate a to produce to
utiuinl.iiice nearly everything to sustain
the greatest population lu the highest
attainable luxury.
Would you believe It, that our tin-
jMirts of cotlVsj aud sugar far exceed our
export of wheat, Hour and all other
cereals, livestock, fruits, etc? If asked
(ho relative value of the couee we
drink, and the wheat wo export from
the United states each year, It la prob
able that the average cltlxeu would say
our wheat export are ten times th
value of our ooflee Import.
I give you the cost aud profit In lu-

staled, cacao come Into bearing lu
seven year aud like the eoHeo livery

of tnv are et to the acre a ounce.
You can get a small crop at the end of
thefiait year, and the life of a cacao
tree Is about 100 years; It height I
about 15 feet, aud la clear of brsucbe
for about 0 feet from the ground.
It Is estimated that the total cost of
the purchase and preparation of the
land, purchasing aud - planting of the
seed-ts-an aud caring for the plant un
til muturlty, or until It has reached i
safe stage, will not exceed :t00 (sliver)
iht J 000 trees. An average of 1000
tree are planted to the creadra (about
1 ) acres).

rubttcr boot uoulain scarcely a spoon

trees should be planted or net at least
40 fti t apart. The rubber tree is iito-
cessfully irrowu in the lowland of
most all plantations; the part not
adapted for growing ooflee. Every
plantation has various altitudes so that
everything can be grown aud every
foot of laud used.
The exportation of guttapercha in
1801 was 400,000 pounds, only, from
the whole state of Guatemala, While
the tree grows wild In abundance, this
Is a branch of iudustry much neglected,
and It appears to be a country singu
larly adapted to the growth of the rub-
tier true, which grow quickly aud
well. With sonic systematic plan of
planting young trees, and by not tap
ping the trees until they have attained
a sufllcleut growth, this should become
one of the most Important rubber dis
tricts In America. But the native
don't seemo to think of the future
only the present therefore, many trees
are killed by tapping.
HUOAIl CANE.
I might say the same of sugnr; they
do not get the results they should out
of their sugar cane. It Is the very best
soli In the world for growing sugar
cane. They simply dig a trench and
throw In the cane and In eleven (11)
month.lt Is ready for cutting. They
let the grass and weeds grow and do
not thin It out at all, and yet It last
from 20 to 80 years. Then, when they
run It through the mill they lose about
a quarter in not properly grinding It
A FEW WINTERS.
There is no such country on the face
of the globe, for yon can raise every
thing. Even corn grows 17 feet high,
and mature In 90 days, with three

An Englishman, however, once said:
"The American people wouldn't ho sat

oouutry It I necessary to go further
away, I have not sought to offer any
untruthful panegyric. The time lis
oorne for European and American cities
to overflow the world, aud when Immi

dice should be dissipated.
It I but fulfilling a duty to make
known, lu all Justice, a oouutry so wor

for persons who may seriously consider
the matter of seeking a new home for
themselves. But It I no plsee for a
poor man-that Is, aloue, with lea than

11000 to $3000 In a colony, on account
