From all that we can learn the area
10 rice will be largely increased this
year. The uncertainty of cotton crops,
and low prices, compared to the more
successful results and renumerative
prices of rice are the causes which are
bringing about this wise change in
crops. As long as there is an over pro-
duction of cotton for the worlds con-
sumption, low and unremunerative
prices will continue to rnle the market.
Such perils do not threaten the rice
market, because thousands of bushels
have to be imported annually from In
dia and the Islands 10 supply the enor-
nous demand for this favorite cereal in
the United States. In short time, we
propose to reproduce our series of -rti-
cles on the production of rice, that we
published some two or three years ago,
in which appear full and complete data
and statistics upon this subject. A
careful perusal of these articles will
show the paramount Importance of the
rice industry, as we'll as tho fact that a
rice cleaning mill should he established
either at Opelonsas or Washington. The
people are anxions for one and it would
he a paying investment.

WEATHER AND FARM. THE winter

with comparative little rainfall for the
season Our planters are busy getting
ready for the ensuing crop, repairing
fences. opening bitches, planting oats,
&c. Many apprehend cold and wet
spring and consequent delay iE plant
ing crops, but we trust that such fears
will prove gronndless, and that 1889
will prove generous in harvests and in
prices.
