ARKANSAS A RICE STATE.
Some Things the Arkansas Aericultu.
raj Experiment Station Has Done
for Arkansas.

Rice is today one of the leading
| crops of Arkansas, as there was last
year nearly 100000 acres planted in
| this cereal Arkansas now produces
more rice per acre than any other
state in the Union. Land that now
| produces from 40 to go bushels of rice
at cash value of from $35 to $50
was a few years ago considered OF
very little value.
A large area of this rice belt a few
years ago was used for grazing or for
prairie hay, and the revenue derived
from it was very small-from 81 to
s. per acre, Because of inadequate
drainage, such crops as corn, cotton,
oats, wheat and alfalfa did not
| thrive.
At the request of the farmers of
Lonoke county. the Arkansas station
in cooperation with the United States
department OF agriculture began ex-
! perimeHts in rice growing in 1902.
w. P, Fletcher of Lonoke gave the
use OF his land, erected a nice cot
tage for the manager, and rendered
other valuable assistance. A well was
| sunk. pumping machinery installed,
| leyees built, and a few acres of rice
| sowu. The experiments were a sue
cess from the beginning. The Arkan-
sas station was given full control as
the department of agriculture with
drew. A field agent was placed in
charge to devote his entire time, and
the acreage increased. The large
yield of rice made by the Arkansas
station in 1908, 1904, 1905, 1906 and
1907 was very largely responsible for
| the increase in land values and for
the rapid increase of farms and rice
plantations in the central Arkansas
district. In three years land values
| increased 800 per cent and the peo-
pie prospered as the rapid growth
of the cities and towns will show.
! Now there are painted farm homes
fat live. stock, rice mills, and other
sure indications of prosperity in the
rice belt.
The field agent personally visited
rice farms and gave assistance.
In cooperation with the bureau OF
irrigation and drainage of the United
States department of agriculture
wells and pumping plants were test
ed in 1907 and expert assistance
lgiven on the cost of production.
Three bulletins were issued by the
Arkansas Station: No. 49, Rice
Growing in Arkansas; No. 81, Rice
Culture: No. SO, Rice. These bul
letins gave helpful suggestions fo'
sinking wells, making levees, sowing
irrigation, eradication of weeds, har
vesting, threshing, rotation OF crops
and maintenance of soil fertility. Tn
supply of these bulletins is exhaust
ed and the experiment station has n
money to reprint them.
Had the money been available t
continue the branch station at Lt
uoke and the rice experiments, som
of the problems that the rice grower
now have could have been avoide
land perhaps ways and means provit
ed for extending the area for grow
ing rice profitably.
