The country Is governed by a king, who is a constitutional monarch, and a parliament made up of a senate and a chamber of deputies. The pre-wconstitution was rather reactionary, with the masses practically disfranchised. The new constitution, however, Is more liberal, permitting voting by all citizens over 21 years of age, paying taxes. Small Farms and Big Estates. Industrially Rumania is almost entirely given over to agrlcul'uro, and, area for area, it produces more cereals than any other great nation In the world. Before the World war its farm lands were about equally divided between the small farmer and There were about a rich million farms with an average size of eight acres, and then there were over 4.000 estates with an average size of 2,200 acres. Since the conclusion of the World war steps have been taken to break up many of these large estates and to create a body of peasant proprietors. The result of the occurrence of both huge estates and tiny farms Is that one finds the strangest contrasts In farming methods. Here is a big estate where every sort of farm machinery that Ihe United States has to offer Is to he found the binder, the mower, the steam gang plow, the riding cultivator, the manure spreader and even the steam header and thresher. , And then hard by are a hundred small farmers who still harvest their grain with the sickle, thresh it with the flafl, or tread it out with oxen and winnow fork. They ft with the home-mad- e mow their grass with the scythe, rake It with the hand rake and haul It in But even with the very jwith primitive methods that characterize half of the farming of the country, they manage to coax a rather bountiful crop out of the soil. The great bulk of Rumanias population belongs to the peasant class, for there are comparatively few cities and most of them are small. Many of the peasant families have lived for genera ar g land-owner- .- s. t rate, though the fact that the bottle-fe- d baby Is almost unknown In peasant Rumania tends to overcome the high infant mortality that would otherwise result.

It scattered more than 12.000.- 000 of them over these lands more than 7,000,000 in old Rumania and some 5,000,000 elsewhere. The old Rumania" was a country of 53.000 square miles, with a population of less than 8,000,000. It was thus slightly larger than Pennsylvania, although it had half a million fewer people than the Keystone state. The new Rumania has an area of 122,000 square miles and a population of under regulations of World war veterans, now members of the officers reserve corps, will be assigned for duty In the reserve army framework contemplated by the national defense act, have been made public by the War department and distributed to the 66,000 officers who now compose the corps.
