that all fhe brains in the Rice Industry

source.
1t is true that the Southern Rlce
Growers Association has been dis
cussing methods to Offset the Brag OF
the Board of Trade rice experts, that
rough rice would sell this year Tor
$500 per bag, and that the Southern
Rice Growers Association was labeled
for delivery to the innermost chambers
of his Satanic Majesty's domain; and all
previous plans have been delayed or
broken up, largely by the Miller OF
'Spat IN the Alley" caliber, the Miller
ever ready to see all the scarecroWs,
the can'ts the don'ts and all such.like
that are ever used by the man that
can't oct into 10th century stride, or
if he does get in the band wagon wants
to have the drivers seat or none at all.
These self.styled experts may well be
surprised that anyone would presume
to act without their permission, or
have the temerity to think that he had

Reply to New Orleans Board OF Trade
Member by a Rice Man.

Cooperative Rice Plan ridiculed by
New Orleans Board of Trade Member:
1--WE are paying as much attention
to it as though someone spat IN the
alley" is his remark,
The article with the above heading
appearing in the Item of Tuesday, is
received here by all progressive and
intelligent men, who are interested IN
the welfare of the rice industry, as
ito be expected" and is in line with the
average degree of intelligence emanat'
inr from New Orleans Board OF Trade
sources, whenever advice or criticism
are gratuitouSly given to the columns
OF the press, or otherwise, pertaining
to any move contemplated to further
the interests of the industry in general.
One has to but consider the source,
and compare the relative Importance OF
the New Orleans Board of Trade today,
to the Rice Industry, and its i'm.
portance as factor few years back
to assure himself that they are de
eidedly on the down grade, the reason
for which is the constantly hearisf
attitude of its operators, who are eyel
ready to ridicule any and everything
that would do any good, or threaten
TO disturb the routine that they hav'
accustomed to practice. since thei
establishment. A criticism from sue
source is therefore hardly wort
notice, and of no surprise to anyon
knowing their progressive attitud
towards every move to improve col
ditions for the past twenty years, i
rice matters.
