The Rice Association is continuing
to do good work for the rice planters,
having advanced the price of rice
from 50. IS to 81. IS for No. j., during
the past few weeks. a still further
advance would be possible If the
lanters would all join in the move
ment and lend their assistance to max
ing their product worth more on the
market. by signing up with the asso-
citation, thus making it impossible for
the mills to continue buving at a fig
ure less than the cost Of actual pro-
ductiOn, as they have been doing in
the past. There are, however, we are
sorry to say, few farmers in this
locality that are like barnacles on a
ship, doing nothing to push the mark
ct along. yet hoping to profit by any
increase that may accrue from the
efforts of others. This class Of farm
ers, of which there are not many,
rather than pay the small fee of ten
cents a sack necessary to provide
running expenses for the association,
will follow in the associations wake
and offer to take a few cents less for
their rice than the association prices,
and so are, to q certain extent keep
ing the market more or less unstable.
If these same planters, as we'll as all
Others, would sign up with the asso.
citation it would be but "a short time
before they would be enabled to ad-
vance the price of rice even further
than they have already done.

CARRIES FORTUNE TO GRAVE
French Miser Named AnsIade seeretes
Wealth Under Armpits Before
Death.

A. .miser named Anglade, who died
at Pau recently carried part Of his for.
tunue with him into the grave and hid
the balance in order to prevent any
one else using the money
Throughout his life Anglade's only
ambition was to amass money. a Paris
correspondent Of the st. Louis Globe
Democrat says He virtually starved
himself in order to save as much as
possible and his only fear OF death
was based on the regret that he could
not take his possessions into the next
world.
He steadfastly refused to give his
relatives any Information about his
possessions and after his death his
wife made systematic search Of the
house, with the result that $6,250 was
found In gold and bank notes secreted
in out-of-the-way places.
The Julesburg grit-advocate., 1911-06-08

She believed that this represented
all his wealth. but when a bank clerk
presented q note for payment OF =
loan promised by the miser and said
that Anglade had document confirm
ing the transaction the widow decided
that her husband must have taken the
paper to the grave.
The grave was then opened in the
presence of magistrate. Packets OF
bank notes and bonds, with a number
of other documents. including the one
sought for, were found under the
mans armpits.
Opportunity was taken to search \
bamboo cane. which, according to
Anglade's dying wish. was buried with
him. Each section Of the cane was
found to contain notes and gold
wrapped In cotton wool.
