IN THE RICE BELT.
Chances of Poor Man Even Better
than Rich Mans.

Any man with health, strength
and willing to work is rich any
where in the rice belt. The oppor-
tunities are so numerous and so
great that all classes are amply pro-
vided for. Indeed, labor takes less
risks and gets as good profits as
capital. Capital furnishes farm,
water and seed. Labor furnishes
teams, tools, sacks and does all
work, including harvesting and
threshing, each receiving half the
crop at the threshing machine.
To show that capital takes more
risk: Suppose we take 100 acres;
capital furnishes land-interest on
$4,000 one year, 1920; seed, $l25;
water, $500; total, $745. Labor:
Flowing, 800; seeding 800; watch
ing leeves, $50; harvesting, $3.50;
threshing $3.50; total, $3.50. At
harvest time capital has invested
three dollars to one for labor. If the
crop fails, labor is ahead.
This is on basis of a yield of
ten barrels of rice per acre-1000-
if good, $4,000; half, $500. Either
party will be we'll paid at any price
between two and three dollars
