MESo20TAMIA TO COME BACK
Redeemed From Present State
OF BARONESS.

|. may he remembered that, when
Gen. Sli Stanley Maude had to lay
down his work with his life In Meso-
potamia, that work was taken up and
carried on successfully by Gen. Sir w.
Il. Marshall. The expedition which
he sent up the Euphrates freed that
river from the Turks, and just before
the nrmlstice the force which he led up
the Tlgris from Bagdad captured the
entire Turkish army Of 1000 about so
miles south of Mosul. the city which
stands on the west bank opposite the
ruins OF Nineveh. Since then the coun-
try has had peace, and all the way
north and west from Basra there has
been notable revival Of commerce
and agriculture, with beginning of
the great irrigation scheme devised by
Sir William Willcocks. 1t was through
irrigation that in ancient times the
land developed its extraordinary fertil-
ity, and traces remain Of the network
Of canals that formed the center Of
Babylonia.
Is there to be a renewal Of that fer
tility In place Of the desert baroness
produced by Turkish neglect and NAL
administration? General Marshall,
who has returned to England, Is Of
that opinion. Speaking recently at
Durham he made one very remarkable
statement. As a result Of experiments,
he said, 1t was believed that Mesopo-
tamia would become the finest cotton
growing country in the world. That is
a large expectation. too large to dis
turb cotton growers in other countries.
Details of the experiments, showing
surprising results, will have to be
made known before the "sea island"
territory Of Georgia. South Carolina
and Florida can believe that Its SUI
premacy Is threatened by Mesopota-
mia, or that the beautiful long-stapled
silky wool Of its peculiar variety can
be exceiled anywhere.

AZORES AT A sTANDSTILL
Population Has Shown Little Change
In Last century-Lost Trade In
Sugar and Tobacco.

The population Of the Azores IL
about 245,OO0, the number Of inhabi-
tants having changed but little In the
last century, and, II anything, having
diminished. This fact is probably due
more 10 various political and social
conditions than to climatic, agricul-
tural, OF other conditions Of the
islands. In the early days the Portu-
guese literally raised cane" on the
islands, and established large sugar
trade with England and other coun-
tries. Tobacco and fruits were also
produced In great quantities, but, with
the discovery and settlement Of Brazil
and other South American countries,
Portugal rather discouraged produc-
ton In the Azores In order to aid her
colonies In South America. With the
sugar and tobacco trade snatched from
them, the Azoreans began the cultiva-
ton Of the vine, and the making OF
wine and other liquors became one OF
the chief Industries of the Islands.
The population consists mainly OF
Portuguese. Moorish, and Flemish set
tiers, with few negroes and fair
sprinkling of English settlers.

The
Boundary Line
r.
By ABIGAIL SCOTT

NCopyright, 1918, BY the Mcclure News
paper Syndicats.)
From the first stone, which lay flush
with the highway, the wall ran back
to the river road. marking the boun-
dairy line between the two farms. Com
structed Of rough powders, skillfully
fitted, for years 1t stood, q monument
to the feud between the Ashleys and
the Raymonds.
Originally the two farms had been
one; three hundred acres Of woodland
and rolling meadows, the property Of
Henry Ashley and his father before
him. Asa, Henry Ashley's son, had
grown up with the expectation Of in
herlting 1t some day. But the elder
Ashley plunged much too heavily one
year in backing a colt Of his own rails
ing at the neighboring county fair. The
PAGER lost by neck; Mr.. Ashley was
unable to meet his obligations.
Just at this critical juncture John
Raymond happened along, bent on the
purchase Of farm. Henry Ashley
offered him hundred acres at a
reasonable price, but Raymond, after
looking carefully over the place, de-
cided that he wanted half the farm
or none-and that half with a condi.
ton. Ashley accepted that condition.
John Raymond built house front.
Ing on the highway, as the Ashleys
had done, and brought his small daugh.
ter and a housekeeper to live In it.
Asa Ashley, who lived in his fathers
home, had young wife and q small
son. Knowing well enough that the
blame for the division of the farm
rested on his fathers passion for rae.
ing horses, Asa nevertheless chose to
place 1t on the shoulders Of John Ray
mOnd. He never returned the latter's
greetings and forbade his wife to visit
the new neighbors or his son to speak
to the Raymond child.
When In the course of time Asa Ash
ley came into the shrunken inheritance
his bitterness toward Raymond in
creased; 1t reached its apex on the
day he learned the nature of the con-
dltion on which the land had been pur-
chased. He had not known there was
a condition.
Midway on the Ashley half Of the
farm, about twenty feet from the boun-
dairy line, was never-failing spring.

lily won q commission. During those
anxious days when young Ashley's
ship formed q unit In the Conveys
which Travelled back and forth with
their dire responsibility Of thousands
Of lives, when he thought Of 1t at all
the old feud seemed very petty indeed.
But he thought much of going back
some day-and of the red-haired girl.
Then came a cablegram telling of his
fathers death, at tense moment when
there was scarcely time for q regret
that he had never returned home.

ME Raymond was carrying out her

farm to its fullest capacity while the
worlds need Of foodstuffs continued so
urgent. Soon afterward she learned
from the neighbors that Harry Ashley
was coming home, and she wondered
what type Of man he might have de-
veloped into.
A faithful old farmland met Harry
at the station and on the drive home
related all the news of the county.

II was one Of Asa Ashley's dreams to
some time pipe the water from that
spring into his house. Therefore II
was with incredulous wrath that, one
summer day, he spied two men digging
on his land while John Raymond stood
by. directing the work Of running a
pipe line from the spring into his own
house.
Only kept from some act of violence
by Raymonds superior strength, and
only convinced Of his neighbours sole
right to the waters Of the spring and
right Of way over the Ashley prop
erty by a sight Of the deed, Asa's feel
Ings changed from passive dislike to
open enmity.
The next day the wall was begun,
and Raymond thereafter was forced to
be constantly on the alert for acts Of
petty malignity on the part Of his
nelghbor. Taking no chances, he WIS.,
tied the spring daily.
The children caught the spirit in
the air. Annie Raymond's little red
tongue always stuck out Its full length
when Harry Ashley appeared, and the
scion OF the Ashley family would yell
derlsIvely. Hello, freckle-faced car
rottopr That secretly Harry greatly
admired her mop Of red curls Annie
did not know.
At seventeen, just after the death
Of his mother, the boy quarreled with
his father and ran away from home.
Some time later John Raymond learn
ed from the gossip Of the countryside
that Harry had shipped in the mer-
chant marine.
The years passed, bringing their
eternal changes. but Harry Ashley did
not return home. Inseparable from his
memory Of the old place, however, was
a mental picture Of an authenticated
girl. with a very red tongue perpetu-
ally thrust out AT him.
Then came The great war. Hurry
