LIOYA D'GS DEEPER
INTO NORTH AFRICA
Given Additional Territory I
by Three Nations.
Washington,? Libya, Italy's colonial
possession in northern Africa. has baen
enlarged by H British Egyptian gift of
land adjoining If In the Anglo-EgyptIan
Hiidan. Ncwh dispatches from Homo
also Indicate that Franco will cede to
Italy her Kaharen territory of Tib est I,
bordering on southern Libya and touching
the new accession from (Jreat Britain
and Egypt.
"Libya, without the uddltlonul territory.
Ik more than twice aa large a*
the state of Texas," gays the National
Geographic society. "While official limits
of the African territory ceded by
(Jreat Britain and Egypt have not been
announced, It lies approximately between
the 10th and 21th degrees of
mat longitude, and the 10th and 22nd
degrees of north latitude. The area Is
triangular-shaped desert land, ,'{00
miles long on 11h northern, und 200 on
its eastern edge.
Largely Uninhabited.
"'1 ibesil Is a mountainous region
soul h of t he Tropic of Cancer, lying Just
west and snuih of the triangle. It is now <
a part of French sudan and Is situat(M)
approximately 'between the l.'th and
2<Mb degrees of east longitude, and the
2(Mh and 'J lib degrees of north latitude,
^jj'be elTect ??f these Joint cessions
will be to extend Italian Libya
some -imi miles deeper Into central
Africa.
"Mini Knsi, the highest mountain in
the Sahara, towers over surrounding |
Tlbestl peaks In the region proposed I
to be ceded to Italy by France. The
Tlhestlnn massif comprises a succession
of peaks, gaps, atid dried up river
beds rather than a mountain chain, extending
Into the des<*rt region ceded by
Great Britain and Kgypt.
"Water sources In Tlbestl are frequent
tint good pasturage areas are
rare. Temperatures are mild near the
base of mountains and ley-cold near
the summits?seldom. If ever, below
freezing, however. Date and palm
trees grow In Tlbestl and besides camels
there are goats and donkeys. IOxcept
for n few nomadic tribes?Ivous- j
snda. Toubou, and some Senussi?the j
region Is for the most part uninhabited, j
Lack Water and Pastures.
"Presenting a more orthodox desert
aspect than the proposed French cession,
the Anglo-Egyptian territorial
gift Is a broad tableland of shifting
sands, occasional mountain fegions, little
pasturage, practically no rain, a hot
climate, long caravan routes broken
by scattered wells, oases at widely separated
points, and few habitations.
"Water supplies may be replenished
at the well of Snrra, located In a
stretch of hard, reddish sandstone 160
miles south and west of Kufra In Italian
Libya. Let southeast-bound caravans
drink deeply, however, because
It Is 500 miles to the next oasis at
Unlanga, French Sudan, over a route
containing no pasturage. Many camels
have been sacrificed on this Journey.
Pasturage has been found 00
miles to the east of Sarra In an unexplored
mountain mass not exceeding 150
to 200 square miles, and estimated to
reach a height of 4,000 feet.
"Oases are nearer on routes north
of Sarra. The Arkenu, In the southwest
corner of Egypt, and the Ouenat,
In Anglo-Egyptian Sudan, are not far
away, although it is believed that the
latter has not been Included in the
British-Egyptian cession. Still fnrthor
north Is the oasis of Ktifra. Italian
Libya, the last stronghold of a once
powerful religions sect, the Senussi.
"Industrious, the Senussi have succeeded
in growing melons, grapes, bananas.
and some vegetables at Kufra.
Olive trees and many date trees are
grown while chickens and pigeons are
raised, and camels, sheep, donkeys, and
a few horses are bred. Kufra once was
the trading center for camel caravans
from the south. South and west of
the Sarra well, the new accession comprises
desert, sand dunes, zones of occasional
dry grass affording meager
grazing for camels, shifting sands and
no habitations."

ONLY THE HUMAN RACE
Those \yho have witnessed a thrilling
horse race know the strength and
stamina and courage in the heart
of a race horse exerting every ounce
of power in an effort to win.
Those who breed race horses do
not depend upon haphazard choice to
bring into being the spirited animals
which mean victories and profits for
their owners. Weak and unfit animals
are not allowed to sap the
strength of the line.
Man of War was a great race
horse. In the year 1920 his prizes
totaled over $108,000, Heredity

is valuable. Crusader, son of Man
of War, likewise earned $106,000 in
one year, namely 1926.
