So cheap and common an article OF
food as rice is adu.terated. The pur-
pose is to give the grains an attractive
color, the articles used being oil and
parafiin, but the effect on the rice Is
deeterious. Those oily substances, q.
New Orleans paper says, soak into the
grain and make it hard. The result Is
that more cooking IS needed. and even
then the rice often remains hard. and,
to that extent, is made fndigessible. In
addition the oil adds to- the weight of
the grain and thus again Is the buyer
cheated.
