The imports OF rice into the United
States for the eight months ending
March / were 4S,O43 short tons, as
against 64,0S7 tons during the same
time the previous year. Included in
this were 22.255 tons of clean rice,
against 3S,792 tons during the same
lime the year before. There were 24,-
900 tons Of rice flour, rice meal and
oroken rice imported, as against 23,141
ons the year before. The notable fea-
lure Of these imports is the falling off
n the imports Of cleaned rice from 49,
1872 tons in 1S94-95 to 22.255 tons during
:he same period in 1886. The low
prices at which homegrown rice has
been selling seem to have had the effect
# diminishing the imports of compet-
ng rice to the extent of some $4,000
IONS. Our annual consumtion of rice,
domestic and foreign, Is estimated at
lbout 100000 to 10000 tons. These
'educed imports would seem to indi-
.ate a comparatively bare rice market
