of fred- ericton new brunswick in coopera tion with the adjacent d ex perimental station some of the famines worked gar dens on land about their homes but the majority of them were established on a

of the it and most famous rivers of world the fg of the nile are in one of the remotest and least civilised bits of the earths sur face and the greater part of its course lies either through equatossal swamps or through barren deserts but before it has finished its long journey of four thousand miles and reached the mediterranean it baa travelled through the greatest king dom of the ancient world and its broad stream has reflected the towers and colonnades of vast temples which mark the spots where once stood the proudest cities of a great emipre for thousands of years its waters bore upon their bosom the glided barge of famous kings and of mighty gods while the ships of all nations from crete from tyre from sidon and by bios even at last from faroff athens and the islands of the aegean swept up the stream before the strong north wind to unload at the quays of mamphu or of thebes and drifted down again with the current laden with all the fintvnd beautiful things which the cunning workmen of egypt knew so well how to make but the nile was not only the wit ness of the splendour of ancient egypt not even only a helper in the making of it it actually made the whole land in the beginning and it kept on remaking it year by year and is remaking it still for a long way after the start of its journey it runs as ilhavesald through great swamps where its current is almost choked by huge masses of matted reeds the sudd which have to be cut through periodically to clear a channel then it comes out at last into more open country which is barren and desolate on either bank and just at khartoum another great river the blue nile comes rolling down from the hills of abyssinia to join the slower current of the longer stream the white nile as the equatorial river is called the united stream flows on past the bat tlefield of omdurman where the last hope of the dervishes was shattered to pieces it passes the first of the six great steps the c down which it has to fall before it reaches egypt and gliding past the ruins of what was once the famous city of meroe it reaches the point where an other nwirt torrent from the abyssinian comes flowing in from the east to join it the nile has really made egypt and goes on mp it afresh every year as it has done for untold nun dreds of years all the black soil which nils the flat valley has been laid down by the river in the course of ages and it is refreshed and kept fruitful year by year by the s flood which made it in the beginning and it is the black soil that is egypt the egyptians themselves in ancient days used to call egypt the black land to hnginiih it from the red deserts which lay on either band egypt then the first of the lands of our story is simply the ribbon of fertile land which lies on either side of the great river which has created it and the broad triangle which hoe between the end of the ribbon and the mediterranean or if you like tt better we might say that egypt is like a illy whose long stem rather crook ed in plsces is the nile and whose broad bloom is the delta james bal kle in the ancient east and its story what means this glory round our feet the magi mused more bright than mom
