Truth About the Desert.

The French, who haze been the
greatest explorers of the desert, have
corrected many false ideas about the
desert. The MIST conspicuous and
persistent OF these errors has been
the notion that the desert Is vast
area Of sand. The French have
proved that this IS not so. In fact
only about fifth OF The Sahara Is
covered with sand.
The greatest desert in the world II
about us large as the United States
and Alaska together. The sand areas
in the desert are somewhat larger
than Alaska; and the rocky table.
lands forming most Of the desert are
somewhat smaller than the United
States. In other words, the Sahara Is
made up OF about 100000 square miles
OF sand and 100000 square miles Of
rock surface.
