(I'rupared by th? National Goograptilc I HocUty, Waalilnvton. I? ' ? Rumania, the latest of the world's monarchies to change kings, hat/ undergone such great changes In the past dozen years that It has In effect had a bloodless revolution. This period has seen the distribution of 8,500.000 acres of land to more than 1,100,000 peasants. Before the war Rumania was a country of the landed rich and the landleas poor. Today the maximum holding permitted to one Individual Is 1,235 acres. King and nobles gave up their estates to fulfill the demands of the agrarian reform. What Russia, Mexico and other countries have done In the matter of land distribution ut the cost of many lives and much money, Rumania accomplished without a shot. But reform was not without cost. Uncertainties, lack of organization to | meet new conditions, and lack of transportation facilities Increased the cost of borrowed money to 12 and 14 per cent. Credit Is tight In a country where all the money In circulation must pass through the national treus- : ury as tuxes three times per year. Greater Rumania Is nearly three times as large as pre-war Rumania. The new nation took tn Transylvania, j the Banat, Bucovina and Bessarabia, i and has yet to digest them. Old Rumania was the slse of England. Greater Rumania Is larger than England adding to Itself Wales, Scotland and Ireland. Like the units of Great Britain, each Is different; Bessarabia Is an extension of the Russian black earth prairie; Bucovina, a forested region ; Transylvania an upland notable for Industries as well as agriculture; the Banat a lowland. Farming Comet Flrat. After the war Rumania saw visions of an industrial future. The country has ample resources: oil, water power, wood, ore, and a good labor supply. Ten years have dimmed the vision but have not wiped it out. Eight out of ten Rumanians stlll/are farmers so the nation has decided to make a good Job of farming before turning to industry. Co-operatives have been organized. Groups of peasants find they can afford to buy American farm mapassetlTIn 1028. Silk culture starting from nothing has Increased to an enterprise enlisting 4.000 workers and $18,000,000 capital. Since the World war Rumanians have turned definitely from wheat to American corn. Greater acreage Is planted In corn than wheat, forn ', mush displaces bread as h national food. Bessarabia looks like Kansas. But In 1028 a second drought bit the country. The corn crop was a failure and Rumnnta, a country which has exported cereals for years, bad to import corn. The government acted to forestall famine In some regions. The similarity of parts of Rumania to Kansas extends to sunflowers 'for ; which both regions are famous. In Rumania sunflowers are a standard crop; 304,3oo acres wore planted In sunflowers last year. Oil pressed from j sunflower seeds serves as a constituent of butter substitutes. I Four foundation stones support life in Rumania ; cereals, oil. lumber, and j live stork. Production of oil and lum- i per has progressed vigorously, not i enough, - however, to oflset losses in cereals and live stork. Companies of many nations Inolud Ing the United State- are working Kittnani in oil wells m ir l'loosti. northwest <d' nuchal'0-t (l'ucuresti).

Among the improvements to which Rumania looks forward is the rcrlam it Ion of vast areas of swamp land. Seven thousand square miles of marsh will nfTord ample land for the retnaln6 lug landless peasants, numbering, about 000,000. Tl?e nation has ita own national church, the Orthodox Eastern church. Otti^r churches have numerous mainhers, however, among them the Unitarian church. Bucharest (BucurestI), capital of Ituinanla, has long been known as "The Little Paris of the Balkans." It bus many earmarks of the French capital. One of its wide tree-lined thoroughfares Is called the "Little ! Champs Elysee" and there Is an Arc de Trlomphe, both of which suggest j the atmosphere of I'arls. TJie bridle paths Honking the thoroughfare conj stantly resound with the thud of hoofs | of blooded horses, mounted by smart looking men and women; and the seemingly endless mass of pedestrians stfolls Ijt a gay mood with no apparent destination. , Here and on other fine thoroughfares lined with pointful residences and fine church and government buildings a sad countenance Is out of place. However, this portion of the city has no corner on smiles for the doorways of the humblest Bucharest homes In the cobbled byways of the poorer section of the city are filled with smiling, chattering parents while their children boisterously run here and there while playing native games. The meat vendor with whole slaughtered animals swinging on the nd of a long pole, vendors of sweet meats, and even some of the multitude of beggars are a cheerful lot. Bucharest Has Pine Shops. Bucharest Impresses the traveler from the time he emerges from one of Its modern hotels downtown. Shops as fine as can be found in most capitals of the world line the business streets. Behind large plate glass windows the American traveler finds such familiar articles as American-made flashlights, radios and phonographs. It Is not necessary to find an automobile salesman, to see American automobiles on display. The streets are full of them. In front of a hotel or business building six to eight of a dozen nutomoblles are popular American makes and across the street a billboard Is plastered with an advertisement of a popular car made In Micnigarfi The doorways of the large" movie or cinema houses display bright colored advertisements with the names of American actresses emblazoned In large letters. Bhchorest is a walled town, without the wall. ( rowded, as was the custom when city walls wore the ma|jQ defense, Bucharest drops away from the glitter of the Pnlea Vlctorlel on i the boulevards to the run-down Orientalism of the outer sections and then abruptly to the empty, dusty plain. Its population has more than doubled In the last decade and houses, as elsewhere In eastern Europe, are at a premium. It requires Influence, persistence and bribery to get Into one of the few hotels, the main attractions of which are the dining rooms, often open to the sky. Surrounded as It Is by rich farming : country, Bucharest has not lacked for | food, and the restaurants are well filled at all times. The Humanian loves the uniform, and high heels on ' soft laced hoots like those of the French aviators suit the fancy of the' young dandies whose perfumed mustaches preserve their dignity by reaching straight out Instead of turning up at the ends.

FIRST ICE CREAM CONB It VV*a Made Accidentally in St. I/vui* In 1904 Millions and millions of ice cream cones are being consumed this summer without anyone stopping to think just how the ice cream cone came to be. Well, hke many other inyentions it was discovered more or ley accidentally. You may not beliele it, but this little bit of "straw" wrapped i around the bottom of a fiveient scoop of frozen milk did not makl its appearance until 1004. The first ice cream cone was made at the St. Louis Exposition that year. It happened this way: A young ice cream salesman in the habit of taking his "sweetie" flowers found it also convenient to take her Ice cream sandwiched between two waffles at the same time. One day this "sweetie" found herself without a vase for her flowers. So she took one of the waffle sides of the ice cream handwich, rolled it into a coneshaped vase, (then put her flowers therein. Not only did it serve as a temporary vase, but it furnished the idea for the ice oream coVie, so popular and convenient today. One.jhrI ?0mpany now I)roduces more than 100,000,000 cones annually. ?
