PLEASES PEASANTS
Ownership of Land In Roumania
 Causes Great Contentment
By Associated Press

Jassy, Rumania, October 6.-Rumanfa's $ agrarian reform act, giving 5,0o0,Oe0 acres
 of state, institutional and private lands to the peasants, has been in operation 8 year and has brought about a degree of
 contentment and satsfs ction among tne
 population heretofore unknown. For the first time in Rumania-s s history the peas ants have been given outright owner ship of land. King Ferdinand was the first to give up part of his large land holdings to the people.
 The appropriation of large private cs- tateS by the government did not appeaSe the proprietor classes, but it has had a steadyng influence upon the temper and spirit of the people, who now have little sympathy for bolsheviSt doctrines. Near ly S5 per cent of the people of Rumalna are supported by agriculture and under their ownership the land during the last year has yielded larger and better crops than ever before.
 Five-sixths of the population of Ru- mania conssits of the peasantry, wh) combine thrift with industry. In fact the peasant class constitutes the real Rumania. The whole hope of the coun- try is bound up in it. A large percent age of illiteracy prevails but the peo- pie possess many good qualities. One sees the same hand-w orked costumes that obtained in the middle ages, the same goodness of heart and simplicity of manner which always characterize highly stratified societies where people know their stations in life and act &C., cordingly.
 The bulk of the Rumanian nation still lives in dirt-floored huts made of woven branches and plastered with mud. These novels usually are windowless and stove less. The people sleep upon the floor or upon benches with their day clothes on, often six to ten of them dn one mis- erable low-ceiled room ten feet square. In many cases the poultry, pigs and cat tie occupy the same room.
 While Rumanan cities have made de- cided progress during the last twenty five years, the countryside real heart of Rumania-has been practically sta hand scythe and the wheat fail used in Biblical times are still to be seen.
 Although producing enough wheat "a supply all Europe with bread, the Ru- manian peasant does not touch white bread. His diet consists almost entirely of a sort of cornmeal mush (mamaliga) boiled so stiff that when it cools it re- sembles corn bread of the southern states This meagre food, insufficientl3 supplemented with fats, is accountable for the large amount of pellagra in Rn- mania-perhaps equaled nowhere else in the world.

NO MORE EXPANSION
Cnrzon Says England Has Enough
 Territory In Asia
By Associated Press

London, October 1.-The expansion of the British empire in central Asia is at an end and rightly so, Earl Cur zon, secretary of state for foreign af- fairs, told the Central Asian Society in an address last night.
 The function of Great Britain in the future, ne added, was not to lbsorb territory there, but to give security and to arrange that the evolution to different and higher state Of things should be easy.
 The great bulk of central Asia, he said, had been thrown into the vortex of European politics. The Russian en- pire, which Englishmen have regarded with apprehension, had been, for the moment, obiiterated from the scene. China was in the throes of military crisis, the upshot of which no one could foresee. Afghanistan had acquired something like independence
 All India was seething with agita- ion and trying to establish some new form of government. In Tibet, the Brit ish had been welcomed as friends.
 Lord Curzon expressed the hope that the Persian government and Parlia- ment gould ratify the Anglo-Persian agreement and that this would assure the integrity and independence of that country.
 He advocated setting up an AraS form of the admin stra tion in Mes ,po- ta mia and said Sir Percy Cox had gone out to assist in carrying on that work He hoped for some form of Arap an unity which would g.atify the amLi- tons of the Arabs.
 In Atghanistan there was serious trouble and commotion. The secretary said he knew of no country in central Asia where the bolsheviki had greater hopes of causing trouble for Great Britain, yet he regarded the interests of Afghanistan as identical with those of Britain. It might take years before the commotion in Asia subsided and no one should suppose that the work of Englishmen in those countries was ,over.

How To. Revitalize Wornout Exhausted Nerves

Your nerve power depends on plenty of good, rich, red blood of the kind that ganic iron--Nuxated Iron-helps make Nuxated Iron is like the iron in your blood and like the iron in spinach, lentils and apples while metallic iron is iron just as it comes from the action of strong acids on iron filings. Nuxated Iron does not in- jure the teeth nor upset the stomach; it is an entirely different thing from ordinary metallic iron. It quickly helps make rich. red blood, revitalize wornout exhausted nerves and give you new strength and energy Over 4,oo0.000 people annually using it. Beware of substitutes. Always insist upon having genuine organic iron Nuxated Iron. Look for the letters N. L on every tablet. Sold by all druggists.

CHICAGO, Feb. 14.-Grain futures be-

Board. of Trade today. Despite the low

crlwled up and finished higher than the
opening.
The Lansing resignation. expected to
have a lowering effect on the stock mar

Traders were cautious. The common ex-

of heavy Argentine exports, were inclined
