They then formed another great year of 432,000 by again multiplying it by 10, which they called a Cali Yug, which was measurable both by the number 2160, the years the equinox preceded in a sign, and by the number 600. altogether 10 Ages, making a Maha Yug or Great Age.

"About sundown... not later..." muttered Blakeney, as he once more stretched his long limbs along the narrow bed. He gave a loud and hearty yawn. "I'll not fail you..." he murmured, as he closed his eyes, and gave a final struggle to get his head at a comfortable angle, "the letter will be written in my best cali... calig.... Lud! but I'm not so drunk as you think I am. ..."

This system makes the Cali Yug begin 3098 years B.C. A dodecan consisted of 5 days, and 72 dodecans formed a natural year of 360 days. According to the earlier calculations, 360 solar diurnal revolutions constituted a natural year.

Since the Japanese-Nazi pact, the Japanese have established a colony of several hundred at Corinto in the Cauca Valley, thirty miles from Cali. The Japanese colony was settled on land carefully chosen long, level, flat acres which overnight can be turned into an air base for a fleet landed from an airplane carrier or assembled on the spot.

On such an acreage enough military men could be colonized to give the United States a first-class headache in time of war. It is two hours flying time from Cali to the Canal.

The difference of the level is very remarkable in the bottom of the two parallel basins of Cauca and Magdalena. The former, between Cali and Cantago, is from 500 to 404 toises; the latter, from Neiva to Ambalema, is from 265 to 150 toises high.
