terday by the house committee on in
sular affairs. He said the Filipinos
looked to congress to give them a
just and liberal government He de-
tailed the facts connected with the
early uprising of the Filipinos. Taft,
he said, was the idol of the people as
he had given them greater liberty
than they would have enjoyed had
Aguinaldo succeeded. Their happi-

can sovereignty. Buencamino contin-
ued at length on this line, speaking
highly of the work of the Philippine
commission. He did not consider in
dependence advisable at this time.

A WOLF IN TOWN.
Visits Flour City and is Now in Con.

Minneapolis, June Ferdinand
Laurich, a gardener employed by DR..
H. H. Kimball, captured a live wild
timber wolf in the ground surrounding
the Kimball residence. The animal is
now confined in the cellar of the SER
wants quarters.
How the animal happened to be
there is mystery. The Kimball home
is in the heart of the residence dis
trict, at Twenty-fourth street and Gin
ton avenue, several miles within the
city limits, and is surrounded on all
sides by thickly settled city property.
Across the street is Fair Oaks, Sena-
tor w. D. Washburn's home With
the Kimball property this makes four
city blocks, on which are located the
two homes and numerous out-build-
ings. Much of the land, however, is
thiclly wooded, and evidently the
wolf was attracted by that fact.

of the Carolina Rice Growers asso-
citation, have not only increased the
demand for rice as nutritive article
of diet, but have increased .ne ap.
plicants for rice lands. These lands
have advanced in values ranging
from 81 to SO per acre to from SIS to
$50 The latter is now an average
price for the best rice lands. This
price is being paid for land under
which oil is known to lie, with no idea
of ever boring for oil on the part of
the purchaser.
Over 800 Per Cent. Profit.
Men who own rice farms in the ir-
rigated territory of Louisiana and
Texas either put in one deep-water
well to every 200 acres to be irrigated,
or pay the irrigation companies sum
of never more than $3.50 per acre to
water their lands. If the land is owned
by the companies they furnish land,
seed, and water for one-half the crop,
or furnish water only, to any farmer
for one-ffth or one-fourth of his crop.
The average cost of cultivating an
acre of rice is $40, and it yields $50 to
$40 per acre, so that nearly every
man who leases a farm one season
owns it the next, if he has an average
good crop.
Nearly all the big mills and irrigat.
ing systems are owned by organiza.
tons of farm RS who protect their
own interests and prevent the eating
up of property on the mortgage sys-
tenn by outside capitalists. They
also own great warehouses for stor-
age rough rice. so that they need not
be compelled to throw their rice upon
the market when a corner has been
made or full market has lowered the
price. Besides the average price OF
1925 and upwards for rough rice de.
livered at the railway station, rice
bran sells for $12 per ton, the polished
rice for $40 per ton, while rice is used
for fodder. Attempts to make white
paper of the straw have proven so sue
cessful that there is slow, but steady
movement toward the erection of pa.
per mills in rice sections where the
straw can be had almost for the ask
ing. Nothing about rice need be
wasted.
