says Mr.. Aaronsohn.
Especially interesting In this con-
nection IS Mr.. Aaronsohn's account OF
his delvings into the history and cul-
tivation OF the wild emmer believed
by scientists to be the ancestor or
modern wheat, the greatest of the
worlds cereals, and its important rela-
tives such as rye barley, etc. From
time dating back before the dawn OF
history emmer has grown on the rocky
slopes OF the Palestinian mountains and
hills. affording the natives a large per-
centage OF their foodstuffs There
seems to be no doubt. says Mr.. Aaron

thrives without any cultivation, we

MIR. Aaronsohn has not confined hi,
Investigations in Palestine to the wild

Among other good things he found
there Is the chick pea. which he calls
