Enver Pasha, former Turkish min
lister of war, has been crowned king Of
Kurdistan, the Turkish region lying
between Mesopotamia and, Persia.
Kurdistan is an extensive region with
ill-defined borders. It's population in.
cludes 100000 people, most Of whom
are Mohammedans.
Enver Pasha was minister Of wal
in the Turkish cabinet from January,
1914, to October, 1918. He was leader
Of the Young Turks. an ardent pro
German and an enthusiastic pupil Of
the German general 0 der Goltz.
After the signing of the armistice
Enver fed from Constantinople tosBer-
lin in disguise. He was arrested on
request of the Turkish government,
but escaped. Though a sentence Of
death rests over him for acts commit
ted during the war. he is a king and
probably will escape punishment.

PRODUCTION Of Modern Equipment
Return to Normal Basis Of Vast
Flocks. and Herds Of Animals De-
pletcd by the War.

Gradual Transformation Of the bat
tle-swept regions of northern France
back to their normal conditions is be-
ing everywhere noted by the Associ-
ated Press correspondent, who, with
special facilities extended by the gov
eminent, is making a tour through the
devastated regions to observe their
steady progress toward recovery.
This rehabilitation Is observable in
the revival of old industries, the es-
tablishment Of new ones and the in
PRODUCTION Of modern equipment, and
it is eve noticeable in the return of
vast flocks and herds Of domestic an
imals, depleted by the war, back to
the normal basis required for the do
nestle needs of this region.
Small Farmers Try to Recoup.
When war swept over the ten de-
partments along the battle front, do
nestle animals disappeared, most Of
the stock being taken as food for the
armies, while the birds and fowls fled
from the conclusion of the great guns.
Now, with the gradual return to pre-
war conditions, the thrifty French
peasant and small farmer is making
heroic efforts to recoup his fortune
and to rehabilitate his land.
Domestic animals are being greatly
treasured for their food value, and
are cared for by their owners with
the same solicitude shown toward
their children. Poultry, and rabbits
are kept in warm quarters and fed
regularly, even though it is necessary
nov and then for the people them
selves to go without a square meal.
New impetus also is given to the
breeding of small domestic animals in
order to ~replenish the restricted sup
ply.
Cattle Are Not Plentiful.
Because of sthe fact that pastures
were for the most part destroyed by
shell fire and gas, it has been found
very difficult to get forage for cows,
and therefore cattle are scarce at
present.
In the field of industry the notice.
able development among the French is
the inclination to modernize plants
destroyed by the ravages of the war.
Naturally slow to make changes and
suspicious Of new things, Frenchmen
are beginning to step forward. They
are installing electric power, applying
the latest ideas in mechanics, reor.
ganizing their enterprises and build,
Ing a firm foundation In preparation
for the developments they believe the
\ future will bring forth.

DRAW MILLIONS FROM LAND
Immense Wealth Accruing to Fortu.
nate Property Owners In the City
Of London, England.

The most elaborate and the largest
map in the world is the valuation"
map Of the city of London, which was
some twenty years in the making, and
which is more than thirty feet wide
and twenty feet from top to bottom.
The map Is Of the metropolitan dis
trict of London, embracing ar area Of
115 square miles, and every house,
shop and piece of property in that
area is shown. Nearly 10000 separate
estates are listed.
Some curious and interesting facts
about London landlords are shown by
the great map. The w%ealthiest estate
is that of the duke of Westminster,
400 acres, with a rent roll Of $15,000.-
600 per year. This is not by any means
the largest estate in London, however,
though it's location makes it the most
valuable. In South London is one es-
tate which covers four square miles.
and there are several exceeding two
square miles, Lord Howard de Wal
denis estate brings in rents to the
amount of 100000 900 per annum, and
the 25O acres belonging to the duke of
Bedford rent for $10.5OO,00O per year.
Lord Northampton, the duke of Nor
folk; Lord Portman and Earl Cadogan
each own around 200 acres of city
property, and their rents run from
about S5,O00.O00 to 100000 per year
each. Not u bad idea to let a city like
