- This very interesting and instructive industrial picture illustrates the primitive methods still in vogue in Egypt, along the upper Nile. Our boat stops at a small landing place and, walking a short distance from the river, we see an Egyptian ploughing and one cannot help but wonder how vegetation can ever spring from the sun-baked earth. We are enlightened when we behold the odd system of irrigation. A native draws water from a well by means of a "shadoff," a peculiar well sweep, and the laborers irrigate the ground by building small squares and dams which regulate the flow. Sowing and harrowing are done by hand. We next visit a half-grown wheat field where we see the natives fertilizing the soil with powdered "guano." The following view is of the laborers reaping with crude sickles. Now we visit the Egyptian farmer during his threshing season. The wheat is placed on the ground and a rough sled, called a "norag," is driven over it, revolving discs forcing out the grain. The winnowing and grinding into flour next receive our attention. Then we see the natives kneading the dough and placing the loaves into primitive ovens. A little Egyptian girl offers us a loaf and guarantees that it is whole wheat. The making of straw brick, from the first operation of digging the clay to the baking by the sun, is shown through all the different processes and will be found of special interest. A series of novel views show the method of making cloth, the shearing of the sheep, spinning the yarn, framing, winding, the operation of the loom and the final transaction of purchasing and paying for the completed article.
- This travelogue starts in the Valley of the Kings at the tomb of King Tutankhamun, then it's on to the Valley of the Nile with the Colossi of Memnon, Luxor, Karmak, and the ancient city of Thebes. It concludes with a look at modern life along the great river where 13 million people live bordered by desert. The film's narrated thesis is that little has changed in these regions in more than 3000 years, from ancient times to present-day. Irrigation is performed using wheels and oxen as well as with the shaduf; also, women get water at a desert well. As the sun sets, a romantic song adds to the mood.
