Come, like a brave man you profess to | be and let us decide this dispute alone. | If you kill me my men shall be your: if I kill you your men shall me mine.’ “No,” replied Mintinomi. “My men have come to fight and they ehall; fight. “Upon which, Uncas flinging | B himself upon the ground, his men dis- | charged a shower of arrows, and rush- | ing upon the Narragansetts with| hidecus yells put them to flight.

FAMOUS EDUCATOR ILL, LOSES USE OF EYES HAS WON RENOWN AS ENGLAND’S “KITCHEN GARDEN" has stimulated in Egypt an increase of population equaled by few other lands in old world areas besides Germany. Cities, villages, roads, railways and canals have sprung up out of the pro- fits of the Nile bonanza farm. “At the time the war broke out, ir- rigation projects were in prospects that would have reclaimed nmearly 2,000,000 acres more of land. The cost of all of these works had been estimated at something more than $100,000,000. Cotton was first of the plantation crops, with an apparantly glowing future before it. Rice was the principal grain export, being eold to a value of about $1,250,000. Fresh eggs on the London breakfast tables were largely Egyptians, the value of this product taken each year by Great Britain averaging arounda $600,000. There were, also, important quantities of fancy Egyptian vegetables sold in London markets, and a thriving cane- sugar industry was in the course of upbullding. “Moreover, agricultural Egypt just began to gather headway during the past ten vears. It was just beginning to realize a fraction of the production that a proper development of its lands could be expected to bring about. Its out-of-season vegetables, grown at a time when the flelds of Europe's great vegetable gardens still lie frost- bound, had enjoyed scarce half a de- cade of demand in northern markets, though they compared in quality with the fancy vegetables, the first aris- tocracy of vegetable foods, grown on the little garden plots in Northern France and in Belgium, the coaxed and coddled cultivations of zealous small gardeners.

(Special to The Buletin.) ‘Washington, D. C., Feb. 13.—“From a forbidding-gprdid waste-land, farmed where naturally fertile barely for a frugal daily fare, into a land of num- erous farms and plantations, of ever- extending irrigation nets and increas- ing profusions of green and gold and resset vegetation, is the story of Egypt's progress under European leadership during the past genera- tion. 'Wihere the fame of Egypt of old was for thuggery and revolution, the modern land was earning renown as & wonderful winter playgrounds fof tourists and as England's Kitchen Garden.” says a statement given out by the National Geographic Society at ‘Washington, which discusses the Nile- land as the granary, vegetable, gar- den, orchard, and poultry yard to th great congested ceners o tthe north- west. - long, fruitful farm that follows the Nile banks through hundreds of miles of desert and spreads out over the wide delta, today, with the people of the .most productive countries in the world in trenches and in training camps, has come into first-rank im- rtance as a source of foodstuffs.
