TEE Persian Farmer, In Persia one of the chief occupa- tions is farming, but it is carried on in such a manner that it can hardly be called such. If the Persian would follow the example of our western farmer his country might be very fer- tile, but he pays little attention to frrigation and cultivates the soil in the crudest way imaginable, This crudity comes from two indolence. The Persian plow is =a crooked beam of wood with a bit of iron at the end. It is just yuch a plow, doubtless, as the ancestors of Abraham uged in the plains of Meso- potamia. It stirs the soil to the depth of only an inch or two. Persian fndolence is well illustrated by the fact that in hoeing one man holds the hoe while another pulls it up and down by means of a rope.
