WELL KNOWN As MOSES POOL
Is Believed to Be That Mentioned In
the Bible in Connection With
Great Law Giver.

In the Egyptian desert, about ten
miles east of Suez, is situated a pic
turesque pool known as Moses Well
This is believed to be the well mem
toned in the Bible, where Moses, at
the bidding of the Lord, cast q branch
into the bitter waters, and they were
sweetened. Set in deep grove OF
date-palms and pomegranate trees, the
well Is dark, calm. mysterious look
ing pool, faithfully rejecting the
palms which fringe its edges. The
scene ut sunrise, when the first rays
strike the still water, is exquisite be-
yond description.
Attempts to identify various nat
ural beauties and locations with men
lions or descriptions given in the
Bible have always been difficult, owing
to the fact that the records of the
rulers of Egypt at the time of the cap
tivity of the Jews were destroyed by
rulers that came into power immedf-
ateIy afterward. The motive was
Jealousy, and a determination to wipe
from the minds of the people any re-
grets for rulers gone.

ing national problem Congress is
talking of little else than legislation
aimed to help the agricultural inter

ing why they can't lend the farmer
the cash he needs The plight OF the
farmer is the chief topic Of discussion
In railroad circles and among business
men at all the big markets Farmers
themselves are organizing everywhere
to force the prices of their products
up to point where selling will not
mean loss to them
Meanwhile what the Individual
farmer needs Is not talk but cash.
Certain things he must buy right
along for himself and his family. He
can't wait for the national debate to
run down.
In this situation farmers who are
hard pressed for cash may be over
looking the fact that all around them
money is growing on the trees and
the crop Is just waiting to be picked
This is almost literally true. In 9TH
