An Ordinary Crop

w. w. Duson, who is largely

regard to the trnthfulness of the
reports which have Eeen circulated
that the Louislana-Texas rice belt
would produce a 3,GO0,v0U-bag crop
and which has completely demur-
allied the market In the country
towns:
"The report sent out from the
east Of a 3,00O,0 ,000-bag crop Is
absurd to those who are III a
20 ,itlon to know. 1t must be
admitted, however, that early IN
the seas u there was good reason
to ho pe that the yield might reach
that mark. Weather conditions,
seemingly, c3uld not have been
more propltlou', and in some sec
tlons the yieli was really euorm-
ous, beyond belief almost; but that
does not hold gool Of the entire
belt, by any means. For some
reason, lnexpllcable to most OF u,
the promise of record breaking
crop was not fulfilled. The rice
now in the warehouses ami fields Is
lighter than ever known. tbllk
