 In tie raising of rice the most tedious effort is the curing of tbe grain. This problem, #as well as all others connected with the crop, are being satisfactorily solved b. the Arkansas planter and there seems to b. no obstacle ia the way of this, tine newest of agricultural industries in t3e State.
 According to a United States. Government report Arkansas ranks first among t1e nine rjee-produc;ng States ef this #coutEY in the quantity ef yield per acre. The average prduc- i ton of her rice fields is 44 bush
 els per acre, while that ef other States ranges from 70 to . .5u-
 sheia. Some ef the land in the Lonole district Aas under espec- ially favorable conditions and proper methods cf cultivation produced 112 bushels to the acre The yield q this crop in i China and Japan is said to never have reached this mark.
 Mr. J. C. England of St.Eaa;s.
 who has been interested ia rice ! culture for many years, says that while growing the crop under irrigation is practically a new industry m Arkansas the native farmer has for many years raised what is known as the upland rice. He cites an
 instance of remarkable success l by an old Arkansas negro Con ditions, he thinks, are much more favorable for the lowland crop because Of the level lay of l the land, the richness of the soil and abundant supply of underground water
 The Lonoke prairie district Is some 500 sqGal e miles in extenct, more than fouT-ffths of this area is declared by experts to be es- pecially adapted to rice growing i So far only a small percentage cf the land has been put in this crop
 Rice is annual plant, belonging to the great family of grasses. U is known boRtanically as Ory q sativa bengalensis. The cQltiYa- ton Of this plant antedated with the tradition and mythology of primitive Asiatic nations. Rice is probably 3 native of Southeast ern Asia, although first culti- Fated by the Chinese It was known to the Greeks and Romans and formed very important article of their commerce. The first rice in the United States was grown by Sir William Berl1- ley in 1647. h his address in 1649 Governor Aston of South Carolina says: Rice, for which we are indebted to Madagascar, was introduced into South Caro- lima toward the close of the seven tenth century"
 Rice has been selected the chief article of food in China. Japan, India and almost all other countries of dense population, It is a much more complete food  than wheat and meat, used by Americans

THE REPUBLICAN PARTY DARE
NOT OPPOSE THE coNSTiTu.
TlON AND STATEHOOD

Even the Republican party will not
lire to make final stand against the
adoption of the constitatiOn. During
he sessions of the convention there
has been nothing too mean to do or
say that would in any way hamper the
work of the convention, or present it
in false light before the people.
A partisan and Subsidized press and
very rank press bureau have done
all in their power, regardless of facts,
TO prejudice the people and misrepre-
sent the convention and its work. both
at home and abroad.
There is a new era at hand. The
constitution is emerging in a finished
state. Its provisions abound in sound
sense and honest judgment. Like bats
before the rising SUE. these maligners
must take to the swamps, the tall tim
ber and overhanging mosses whence
they emerged.

The majority of Republicans will
be surprised and chagrined when they

document. fully up to the times and

have some emphatic remarks to make

libeling the people Of Oklahoma and
their chosen delegates.

THE LEGISLATIVE ORDNANCE.

THE LEGlSlATlVE ORDINANCE.
While legislatures as a general rule
truly represent the people that elected
them and may therefore be trusted
with the very largest range of pow
crs. some restrictions prevent parti-
issnship or oyer-zealous majorities
from doing things which upon cool re-
Election they will discover to be Un-
just.
The omnibus appropriation bill is to
be cut out in the constitution of okla
| homa This is a good feature and
will place the legislature on record as
TO each and every appropriation and
not compel members to vote appropri-
ations that they can not endorse in
order to get appropriations which they
deem necessary.
The general appropriation, inclld
| ing the expenses OF the executive,
Legislative and Judicial department
and interest on the public debt, are
all included in one bill. "All other
appropriations shall be by separate
bills each embracing but one subject. .
While this language is brief and broad
yet its intent is sufficiently clear to
form a great bulwark against tempt
ing abuses.
