The building of textile mills in the
South is keeping step with the deyel-
opment of her iron and steel indus
tries, and converting her from an ex-
clusively agricultural to mixed agri-
cultural and manufacturing section.
The South is too well adapted to agri-
culture for this industry ever to be
forced into the background, as it has
been in the sterile hills of New Eng
land, but there is no reason why man
nfacturing should not be equally de-
veloped. When that is done the South
will be the richest part of the nation,

WHERE RICE COMES FROM.
The hest Quality Grown In the South
~ On, EpuI,ud

The Best Quality Grown In the south
Exports 60 England.
''fhe statement is sometimes made
across the counter to credulous Gus
toner that the fancy imported rice Is
the best, "said local commission man
who has extensive rice fields of his
own in the south "This is not true.
The finest rice in the world Is grown
in Louisiana. The Southern states
in this country produce the best quail
ity of rice with the exception Of Egypt,
which grows as fine an article just as
they do the best quality of cotton.
France and England buy their fancy
rice in the United States, but IL is
only small quantity aud for epicu-
renns. They import the great bulk
from India and Japan. They pay
9 l2 cents per pound TO us on this
side of the Atlantic, paying all ex-
penses of shipment besides. The best
imported grades may be bought in
New York Mt "a cents, Wholesale
price, and this after the cost of trans
portntion and 2 cents per pound duty
has been paid.
"The United States produces nm
nually about $50, 900, 600 pounds, on
an average, and about two thirds OF
this is grown in Louisiana; the re-
mainder is grown in South Carolina
and Georgia. An additional 10, 900,
900 pounds is needed to meet the de-
mands of the home market and this
amount is imported every year. This
comes from India, Calcutta and Japan.
A fine grade, not as fine as our domes-
tic article, however, comes from the
island of Java, but in very small quan.
titles. The japanese variety is most
popular, after our own in this coun
try.
Louisiana alone could produce all
that is necessary for the home con.
sumption, and will probably do so as
soon as n system of irrigation, now
under way, is completed and in oper
alton. This will clear away uncer.
iainties, the crop now being totally
dependent upon the rainfall.

One of the optimistic and most gen.
eral expectations INDUCED in at the
present day is the realization during
the coming century of what is pro-
nounced the greatest and most impor-
tant of prospective inventions, name
ly, machine for storing the heat of
the sun and Transforming it into elec-
tricity or some other form suitable for
ready employment - heat which,
though now permitted to go to waste,
will, by means of such invention, be
applied to the running OF mills, the
warming of houses and every other
purpose for which energy is utilized,
The field for such an invention and it's
worldwide Importance are at once
suggested by the ascertained fact that
every square yard of the suns sur
face emits an amount of heat equal to
that OF blast furnace consuming one
ton Of coal every ten minutes. The
heat given out by the solar globe, too,
in one second would raise 1875, 900, 600
cubic miles of ice-cold water to the
boiling point, and of this heat the
earth receives only one two-billionth

What might be regarded as an un-
erring index of prosperity in the West
is found in the returns of the smaller
colleges in Ohio, Illinois, Indiana and
Michigan, whose clientele is drawn
for the most part from the farm. The
tuition fee and cost OF living at these
institutions are small, which fact
coupled with the increased prosperity
OF western agriculturists this year, ac-
counts in part for the long list OF
names on their rosters for the present
scholastic year. These institutions
are numerous, says the Chicago Trib-
nne, Ohio having 80, Illinois 81, Iowa
N23, Indiana, Ia, and Michigan II, but
they do not suffer by the competition
of the great universities. Each has
its mission in life. Yale and Harvard
have among their students young men
who attended the smaller colleges last
year, but who are now able to afford O
more ambitious course. At the same
time, many to whom collegiate edu.
cation was once an impossibility are
now able to attend the comparatively
inexpensive courses in the smaller
college. The cheapness with which
students make their way through
some Of these colleges is amazing.
