The Great Rice States.


.SaIfctcd
Louisiana always the sugar State OF
the Union, is now the great rice State.
but South Carolina still holds some Of
its old prestige as a rice producing re-
cion, saws the New York Euening Post.
| was not a great MANY years ago that
that State produced more than twice
as much rice as any other State III the
Union, but the last half dozen years or
so have been phenomenal in the South
in creating great changes in its indus
trial life. IN the prairie parishes OF
Louisiana especially has rice grow
ing received a great impetus, and thou
sands of farmers and labOrers find their
chief employment in the fields, and
New Orleans, Is the chief rice mining
clty of America gives work to hun
dreds Of others.
Seventv-five years ago there was not
a rice mill in that city but now 1t con-
tains more than sixteen, giving en-
ployment to over fifteen hundred men.
The mills generally work all the year,
making a steady employment tor those
engaged in them. In Louisiana high
land rice does not pay, and only the
aquatic plant is found profitable.

The Kind Of Horse Wanted.

The rapid increase in the Injurious
style Of living that is now prevailing
says the H,r9dcr's Cozette, calls for an
enormous Increased supply of carriage
horses, well bred, shapely and thor
Oughly trained the extension Of trade
and commerce calls for a large, heavy
'nimal that can draw heavy loads q
short distance and at a rate Of speed
that is consistent with safety in the
crowded streets of our cities, and such
horses, weighing 500 to l 500 pounds,
are in demand at prices that would
astound great many farmers.
The roadster, too, is in demand.
This is a sinewv. robust animal that is
capable of speeding for hours at a gait
OF not less than eight Or ten miles an
hour. and covering a few miles at even
a quicker pace. This IS a horse OF
luxury, and is an animal Of high breed
ing and thorough training to fit IT fOr
Use in all circumstances. Horseback
riding is also steadily growing in pop
ularitv as & fashionable amusement
and recreation. and there is q field for
intelligent breeding as well as training
that can 1ely properly go hand in
hand with the ordinary work Of the
farm. In short. tie growing demands
of commerce, OF business, Of pleasure
and Of fashion IN the matter of horses
will furnish to farmers a pretty sure
market for such as can be brought up
to the standard required by these de-
mands

NOBODY KNOWS BUT MOTHER

Nobody knows Of the work it makes,
TO keep the home together
Nobody knows Of the ateps it takes,
Nobody knows but mother
Nobody listens to childish woes
Which kisses only smother;
Nobody's panied by naughty blows,
Nobody-only mother
Nobody knows Of the sleepless care
Bestowed on baby brother
Nobody knows of the tender prayer,
Nobody-only mother.
Nobody knows of the lessons taught
OF loving one another;
Nobody knows of the patience long
Nobody knows but mother
Nobody knows of the anxious fears
Lest darlings may not weather
The storms of life in after years.
Nobody knOWs-but mother
Nobody kneels at the throne above
To thank the Heavenly Father
For that sweet gift, a mothers love
Nobody can-blit mother.

Louis c. Elson, the musical critic,
says that Yankee Doodle" was sug.
gested by the motley appearance OF
the colonial troops when they mus
tered for the Indian wars in 1885.
An English wit composed it, and the
slang Of that day, doodle, meant a
simpleton, and 'macaroni' a dude.
Mr.. Elson says that Yankee Doodle
was the beginning and the end Of the
Revolutionary war, for at Lexington
the British played it in derision, and
at the surrender of CORVALLIS the
Americans paid it back with interest,
making the British prisoners march
by the same tune. At the present
time Europe regards Hail Columbia
as our national anthem, and the first
edition Of this song was shown by
Mr.. Elson in illustrating the crude
harmonies with which it was born.
The tune had existed for some time
as march. but was first sung in Phil
adelphia by an actor named Fox at
his benefit. The audience went wild
over it, and it was encored eight
times. Mr. Elson attributed the orr
gin Of the music Of THE Star Span.
