C. $ Water and Modern Methods Will Make the Desert of Turkestan Bloom Like a Garden. Turkestan is, of course, primarily agricultural country, and cotton, the major crop. The other industries still await development. There is a tre mendous field for the cultivation of vineyards and rice and other cereals. At the same time, the development of agriculture will gronlly stimulate the sheep-raising Industry, which is now in the hands of primitive natives, uninstructed in modern methods. The fruit industry awaits the guiding hand of modern science. With the help of California specialists, Turkestan could be transformed into an enormous fruit garden. There Is nt present only one factory for fruit preserving. Similar ly, the fish teeming in the lakes and rivers need only the Introduction of modern Industry to place them upon the food markets of the world. The silk industry, if properly organized, would easily become one of tbe most Important in the world. The mountains 1 of Turkestan are rich in unexploited I minerals. Gold, iron, copper, coal and many rare and precious stones and. metals await the pioneer. There is an old legend In Turkestan that the Eden of the first man was placed in the valley of Ferghana and that for his sin Allah laid a curse upon the country and transformed it into desert. The quickening tou(h of water restores tlie desert to richness and fer tility surpassing all legends.

An English scientist has, according to Popular Mechanics Magazine, worked out a method of taking exact. measurement of color. Black, white' and gray are photometrically com- j pared with standard white, and their composition expressed jn percentage! of black or white. A color, such as! red, is compared with n white surface. In a pure ml light. If the red ap-1 pears darker, it Is matched with a gray surface under a red light, the percentage of black then being the V same in both.
