Now that an attempt is being made to restore the oases to their former prosperity, the question of ownership of land has become of the greatest importance, and it is one bristling with difficulties. As a general rule the wells are owned collectively, the... different pro- prietors having the right to utilize the flow for periods corresponding to the extent of their hold- ings in the well. Individual shares may amount to as much as one-third or one-half of the well, or be only the merest fraction ; in the latter case the small holders combine so as to obtain control of the flow for an appreciable period.
