rice this year on account of the boil
weevil. This is particularly the case
in Louisiana. 10 St. Landry parish
the Union Rice and Irrigation COM
pany will have its canal in operation
and several thousand acres of rice
will be planted this spring. In St.
Landry and the northeastern part of
Acadia number of deep wells are
being sunk and some "Providence"
rice will be planted. Some trice will
be planted along the Red River bot
toms and the rice acreage in East
Carol parish will be increased. The
tendency will be to plant more rice
along the Mississippi and in the bay
GU country, on account of the ravages
of the boil weevil. In Texas there is
no particular reason why the acreage
should change materially. Taken all
around, the prospect for an increase
in the acreage by new planting in the
sections name d, is about Offset by the
prospect for decrease in the older rice
sections.
Contrary to all predictions, the rice
market has continued steadily to
strengthen during the last two months
Instead of dropping half cent below
the three cent mark, fancy Japs have
risen three-quarters of a cent and the
tendency is steadily upward. Rough
Japan has risen from $3.50 on Janu-
arv 10th to about $40. For several
weeks rough was proportionately
higher than clean and many millers
were "sweating blood" to get their
money out of the rice they had bought
around So. 40. 1t was the fact that
they had to get their money back, to-
gether with the fact that the farmers
held firmly to enable them to steady
the market and inspire confidence in
the trade.
The movement thus far this year
has been healthy one, and the indi.
cations are that at the end of the sea-
son the consumption will have been
shown to have materially increased.
In December it was over 600, 900
pockets a month and the February
consumption has been a large one.
There are good grounds for believ.
ing that the carrv.over at the end OF
the season will not be larger than the
best interests of the market demand.
One feature OF the rice situation that
inspires hope and confidence. is the
fact that farmers are living within
their means. They show a growing
inclination to plant less acreage, with
the end 10 view of raising better rice
and more rice to the acre.-Rice

Corn Greatest OF Them All.

Corn fed pork furnishes our
tables with millions of hams and
sausages, besides bacon and lard.
Corn produces the best of poul.
try and eggs, of which alone we
as nation, consume more (when
measured by dollars) than we do
of wheat. OF cornstarch we use
about $1,000 year, to say
nothing of the enormous consump
ton of glue, combs and products
made from the horns, hoofs and
hair of those corn fed animals.
To all these we must add a pro
duct OF corn oil maximum &c.,
900 daily, largely used in paints;
and the by products of corn oil,
starch, glucose, whisky and al
cohol, dried and sold IN cakes, for
animal food; am ountlng to milli-
uns of dollars per year. Nor is
that all that corn accompllshes.
Besides giving food and clothing
IN the form of animal and vegeta-
BILE products, as indicated, it
gives life and strength to millions
of horses, mules and oxen that
till our fields and haul our multi
tude of farm products to the
thousands upon thousands OF
country markets, from Maine to
California, and from the Dakotas
to Florida and Texas.

The Charm Worked.

The new glsl paused, and
glanced at her recently ecquired
mistress. This business of pol.
ishing silver in profound silence
was getting on her nerves. She
would endeavor to get it of.
"Ain't 1t nice to get the laugh
on people2" she inquired cheerily.
All her life the mistress had
been accused of being too easy
with her "glrls." This time she
would begin arlght, so she mere
ly raised her eyebrows and re
marked, 'Is it?" But the new.
conner was chill proof.
"Oh, yes, "she continued bIlthe.
ly, me an my sister have the
laugh on all the people IN Eliza
beth Chats where my sister
lives.) You see, her little glrl
had whooping cough an every.
body said she'd have it IL weeks. "
The mistress remem bered
hearing a voice, slngularly like
her own, that had lifted itself up,
and proclaimed: "If the EN-.
ployers of domestic help would
remember that their maids are
human beings and not machines,
the servant problem would solve
itself" So she felt constrained
to ask. "And did she have 1t all
that while2"
mo, she didn't; a lady gave
her a cure; she says, Get up
every morning for three days
just at dawn. Then pull a hair
from the very middle of the
baby's head; after that split open
piece of meat and put IN the
hair. Then tie the meat to a
piece of bread an feed 1t all to a
big black dog. In three days
the dog will have the whooping
cough an the baby will be bet

qulred the owner of the silver.
"Sure she was," returned the
teller of strange tales.
"And the dog?"
"He coughed so the man in the

Omaha dealers are said to be rush. ing butter to the cold storage ware houses and predicting that consumers will be paying 50 cents pound for the product before Christmas. It does not require long head, nowadays. to see that butter will be higher in price in winter than in summer; in fact, from time lmmemorial butter has al ways advaiced during the winter months. But when there were no cold storage warehouses the prices Of but ter were lower at this time of the year because there were no speculat- ors buying the product up, right and left, rushing it to the cooler, and pre- dieting tremendous advances during the winter. The cold storage ware house is beneficent in many ways, but the speculative feature of its utiliza- tion has raised the summer prices of butter and eggs and poultry, and also boosted the winter rates for these products. None of these products will ever again sell loEg at low prices, be- cause the moment the prices ease a little the speculator jumps in and clears the market of the surplus.

Mistake Somewhere.

A story comes from Kentucky town that IS worth repeating. There lives there a woman who says that she has immediate communion with the Almighty, and now and then de livers to those of common clay mes sage that she has received from on high The fact that these messages sometimes take on very materialis- tic hue does not alter their effective ness, in her opinion.
 One day she went into the office of q well known attorney and approached him solemnly as one about to reveal an awe-inspiring secret.
 "The Lord sent me to you for s25, she announced.
 The attorney looked up and smiled
 That must be a mistake" he re- piled, blandly, "because the Lord knows l have not got it.'
 Celestial communication was there upon broken off.

Two Sisters In Great Peril.

Brockton, Mass.-Misses Martha and Denzie Faveau, sisters, now camp ing out at Bridgewater, have been through fire and water this season.
 participating in close conflicts with death, while another experience which they had with an enraged bull has made it apparent that no ordinary occurrence can baffle the wits of these young people. In the last few weeks both escaped death due to the over turning of a canoe, and also made their way out of their camp in safety when it took fire. The bull butted into their life at the camp and put Miss Denzie on the roof of shed for a period of three hours, all the while trying to knock over the timbers in order that he might use his stout horns to toss his victim in the air.

GUINEA HENS GIVE ALARM
Fowl Terrify South Norwalk Horse Thieves When the Watchdogs
 Are Still.

South NOrwalk, Conn.-Guinea hens are to be substituted for electrical burglar alarm appliances in most of the handsome country homes in this section. The pioneer in the move ment is Alfred Hartog, wealthy New Yorker, whose summer home is in East avenue, this city.
 If it had not been for six guinea hens which were roasting in his barn he would have lost his best team, a handsome pair of grays, and also two sets of harness and an expensive car riage. The horse thieves had cut all the electric burglar alarm wires. They also had chlOrOfOrmed the watch dog and placed pillow boots on the feet of the horses to mufie their tread as they were led out of the Hartog grounds Everything that twentieth century horse thieves could do to get away with the horses without arous- ing the Hartogs and their neighbors had been done.
 The thieves just were about to drive away when one of them, who had gone back into the barn to look for something, stumbled against the guinea roost. Instantly there was a racket that could be heard half mile away One guinea started to cackle and the others joined in. The chorus sounded something like giant bur gler rattle would sound. The Hartogs heard it; their neighbors heard it., and in a few seconds the entire East avenue section was aroused,
 Hartog discovered that the thieves had cut the burglar alarm, telephone and electric light wires before gear ing up the horses. The watchdog was found in the stable sleeping peaceful ly under the influence of chloroform. The guineas were gift by farmer to the Hartog children.

WoMAN's CRUELTY TO WOMAN.

It is often said that women are more cruel in their judgments of women than are men. The sophomores Of Barnard college, New York, have evi- dently undertaken to show that the sex can be as cruel in action as in judgment Only women will fully ap- preciate the terrific cruelty of the edict of those girl sophomores that the girl freshmen must on no account adorn themselves with rats or puffs or braids during the present college term. But the man of average obser- vation will get at least hint of the tragedy of the situation. While the sophomores are going about adorned in the glory of mountainous false hair the freshmen will have to be content with those simple cultures at once so becoming to the faces of young girls and so out of style at present, says the Chicago Inter Ocean. Think of the horror of that to girls who are just beginning to understand the inexcr- ableness of fashion! And when they walk abroad for air or exercise what sudden, sad reminders of their forlorn condition the windows filled with abundant hair goods of all shapes and arrangements are sure to be! What bangs of hopeless desperation and re. volt will wake to mar their pleasure!
