Description
ROAD TO HELOUAN - APPARENTLY IRRIGATED SOIL ALONG RIVER BANKS IS PERIODICALLY SCOOPED UP FROM THE SURFACE OF CULTIVATED AREAS IN ORDER TO GIVE THE LOWER SOIL A CHANCE TO MAKE CONTACT WITH AIR & SO LOSE ITS SOURNESS. PROBABLY THE INTENSIVE IRRIGATION MAKES THIS NECESSARY. (NOT AUTHENTIC). (NEGATIVE BY F. HURLEY).
