back to it sold-time fertility. Nearly
a year ago, indeed, dispatches from
Bagdad told of the rapid strides which
were being made in the great work
of restoring the once famous irriga-
tion works of the country. ""During
the summer," it was declared in one
dispatch, "we have been at work on
the irrigation scheme. This year near-
ly a hundred canals on the Hillieh
"branch, which had fallen into disuse,
have been brought into cultivation,
and there is promise of the greatest
harvest in the memory of man, pos-
sibly the greatest since the days of
Nebuchadnezzar."
There has been no cessation of work
during the past year, and only a few
weeks ago another great enterprise
was completed at Mansurioh, on the
Diala River, some seventy miles north-
east of Bagdad. Fourteen hundred
years ago, in the days of the Abassed
church Caliphs, the whole country inclosed by
the Diala. Adhem, and Tigris rivers
wes watered by a series of canals
drawing from the Diala. Most of
these have been dry for centuries, and
the gisatter part of the land has long
been out of cultivation. Six months
