CULTIVATE RICE.

The suggestion Of Messrs. Dan Tai
images Son & Co., to cotton growers
that rice be adopted as a crop on
lands withdrawn from the culture o:
the staple, has attracted widespread
attention. Enquiries in regard to the
matter have grown so numerous that
they have printed little pamphlet,
giving hints as to seed, planting, cult
waiting, harvesting and marketing. The
documeat is brief, but full enough for
the guidance of any practical planter
and car be obtained free of charge of
either o. their respective houses IN
New York, Charleston or New Orleans.
1t is said that rice will yield over $1,000
to $500 per acre !; cost OF planting
from 5000 to $500; the difference
in outcome is due to character OF cul-
tivation or season. This year prices
have been high and results IN many
instances have far exceeded the larger
amount noted. The fact that the
produCj,1n is far be low the require
ments OF the United States would
seem to be an additional reason tor at
giving /, a trial. 1t IS near the time
of preparation for first planting, hence
PROMPT action should be taken IN
