THE RICE INDUSTRY.
poor Prices Have Made the Rice
Growers, Like Cotton Raisers,
More Conservative.

The slow movement and compare
lively poor prices encountered for the
last rice crop will result in smaller
acreage this year. according to Louis
lana reports. Generally in that state
blowing is well under way during the
month of January, but this year farm
ers proved slow to begin operations
This acreage reduction determination
of planters is being fostered by the at
titude Of many mills throughout the
south which heretofore advanced as
high as So per bag on rice, but are now
cutting down the maximum to 81 per
bag. 1t was predicted last year that
low prices for rice would drive some
planters to raise cotton. However, the
great slump IN cotton prices since last
fall will hardly encourage any general
move in this direction.
The rice situation is somewhat anal
cgous TO that of cotton. Although the
rice industry of the south Atlantic
states is hardly holding its own, the
crop of late years has developed to a
staple IN southern Louisiana and Texas.
Call it oyerproduetion or what you
will, the fact seems to be that as with
cotton the rice supply has proved bur
densome to work off at prices satisfac-
tory to producers. It is estimated in
trade circles that the rice yield for
1864 left a surplus Of about 1 200, coo
sacks. The crop for 1904-5 aggregated
4,5o0, 900 sacks, compared with an esti-
mate Of $3.50, 600 sacks or 883, 0o0. 600
pounds for the preceding year Thus
the supply OF rice has apparently ruled
ample TO the point Of surfeitage
Some light has been thrown on the
situation of late. owing to a bigger
export demand. # this continues the
market may be rounded into good
shape during the present year
Another feature which ought TO
serve as q hopeful sign for producers
of rice in the United States is the
larger inquiry for low grades Of that

.4+...4twe., and Fruitfu1 Farms.

There are a good many reasons why
a farm should be made as attractive az
possible. One of the best is that it
makes farm work more pleasant and
relieves the baroness and monotony
that often make farm life tedious.
Another reason is that it pays in doll
lars and cents. The orchard and the
garden should be as fruitful and
profitable as the fields and the pas
lures. They should be as jealousy
planned and looked after. The sur
roundings of the house and the barns
may be materially beauti6ed, and
health and comfort added by the prop-
er planting of ornamental and shade
trees.
The farm garden that is well stocked
with berries, bushes and vines. with
roses and all sorts OF small fruits, is
a thing of beauty and a source Of
pleasure and profit The orchard filed
with fruit trees and the lawn bordered
with shade and ornamental trees,
shrubs, etc, mark the home of the
wise, wide-awake, progressive farmer.

Of a horse chestnut or something, with

we were getting on the trolley slipped
it down the back of dads pants, near

chestnut had worked down where dad is

smallpox was a priclling sensation in

in the foot of the bed, and got dad in,

doctor said If the prickly sensation went

its work and knocked the disease out OF

dad that he raised up In bed and said he
