The -Egyptiun ministry Of public
works, which has been experimenting
in cotton raising during the past ten

effect that it viii be possible to do
better than double the yield of cotton

TEN Of dams for irrigation In connec-
tion with the White Nile and the Blue
Nile.
Vast quantities of water have been
stored already, and during the past 80
years nearly a million acres of en-
tirely new land have been added to
the taxable soil of the country. II is
estimated that in this newly explored
region about 100000 acres of land
could be made capable of growing cot

give more land than is now planted
with cotton in Egypt. Irrigation
works are now being constructed, and

Correct Thouaht First.

Social reform is not to be secured by
noise and shouting, by complaints and
denunciation, by the formation of par
ties or the making of revolutions, but
by the awakening Of thought and the

action; and when there is correct
thought. right action will follow. Pow

men. What Expresses the masses is
their own ignorance, their own short
