FORTUNES WASTED IN RICE.
Vast Possible Wealth Thrown Away in
Matrimonial Custom

If fellow throws an old shoe filed

RED. young man. go and pick every
grain OF it up" said rice enthusiast
for there is a fortune in IT, was
jus, thinking to-day about the vast
amount of wealth that has been wasted
IN this way, and it is simply alarming
when you come to think OF it. went
to the convention of rice men az Crow
ley recently and learned few things
about rice that l never knew before.
Why, the possibilities Of grain % rice

Here is grain which have been

poses I was reading IN the Plaque
mines Protector that oEe gram et rice
would bring in the first year sixty
punches Of rice. and that each bunch
contained go grains. which weules give
total yield OF 15,6Eo grains Ter the
first year. Now. this IS rc smal thing.

py practice OF tossing an old Saee after
the newly married couple" says
writer in the New Orleans Times psIu-
ocrat. we are almost shocked AZ the
extravaganza Of the world.
The rice thrown away in this way
since the custom was first launched
would have saved the lives OF all the
people who have ever starved to death
since the world began if il had been al

where rice will grow and get rich"

BIG FIGHT IN TIOGA

Widespread interest is attracted to
the contest now being waged in Tioga
county for the delegates to the Repub-
Iican state convention.
This will be the last struggle, prob
ably, in which the people will have an
opportunity to vote directly for the in
dorsement of candidates for the Repub-
lican nomination for governor. The
names of Elkin, Watres and Penny
packer will all be printed upon the
official ballots and each participant at
the primaries will have chance to in
dicate his favorite. The candidate re-
ceiving the highest vote will have the
delegates to the state convention in
structed for him from this county.
Candidate Elkin is the only aspirant
for the nomination who has up to date
accepted an invitation to go into the
county and address the voters on the
issues of the canvass. He has arranged
to make speeches at different points
in the county on Wednesday, Thurs
day and Friday of this week. The pri-
maries will be held on Saturday next.
1t was believed that Huntingdon
would present a similar condition of
Effairs, as it is the custom in Hunting
don to let the people pass upon the
candidacy Of aspirants for state offices.
Elkin registered in the county and it
was said that Messrs. Watres and
Pennypacker would do likewise, but
when the last day for registration had
passed, it was found that Elkin was
The only candidate who had agreed to
submit his name to the voters. There
was but one set of candidates for dele
gates running, too, and these are
friends of Elkin. The primaries in
Huntingdon take place on Saturday
next and the Elllin men will, of course,
be elected.

Republican state ticket is becoming
