A Rice Growers Soliloquy

A rice farmer said to me a few days ago, Yes, I think every rice farmer should belong to the Rice Growers Association but 1 am not going to join this year.
 My neighbor is not doing his part, he is riding on me and if he don't join I won't. Yes. I know it will work a hardship on me I will lose money by not being posted but it is not fair for him to ask me what l got for my rice because he knows l belong to the Rice Association.
 Another thing, that is not fair. my landlord says, Just let my rice go with yours, so I won't have 10 pay any fees" It is not fair but he did that last year.
 What is that you say? My neighbor did sign up this year. He said he changed his mind about the fee part. He did not get as much as diF because his rice was much better than mine and he sold iEfof the same money. "
 And. .Iny landlord too. What, sent youS his contract by mail. Well am glad. Say, you know was worrying for fear they they would take me at my word and I would have. to stay out, and 1 did not want to for l need all the money 1 can get for my rice and I know if the Associa- ton went out of the state l would lose. Yes, Mister 1 will sign up again.

Work of the Ground Mole.

There is popular belief that the
ground mole is destructive animal.
Like many popular beliefs this cannot
be substantiated by facts Ground
moles do not feed upon roots and are
not destructive. The ground mole is
Subterranean animal. 1t builds its
nest, rears it's young and hunts it's prey
beneath the earth. 1t is we'll adapted
to it's suDterranean life, the shape of
its body being cylindrical. gradually la
pering to Il point at the extremity of
it's nose. Ground moles visit only those
localities where. the earth is infested
WITH insect life. Where they are nu-
merous the ground is interlaced with
runs" or passageways that lead from
one feeding ground to another. These
little animals deserve protection be-
cause they prey upon all kinds of un-
derground insects, among which are the
larvae of some of the most injurious
insects which pass their pupa or chrys-
ala stage beneath the earth.-Country

The Los Angeles Times Midwinter
Number.

There is no more noted newspaper
annual than the Midwinter Number of
The Los Angeles Times, whose joyous
issue for 1916 is just at hand. South
ern California has so many unique fas-
cinations that newspaper that reflects
them is in a class by itself, and the
"Midwinter" is so classified by every
one who sees it. 1t is made up of five
beautiful magazines in addition to the
usual news sheets. Five magazines of
thirty-two pages each, with art covers,
all printed on fine book paper in bright
colors. The art work is surprisingly
fine and the text is Illuminating. One
can visualize the charms of the South
west by looking through this pleasing
publication. 1t tells one everything he
wants to know about the resources,
prosperity and delights of the South
land-the climate, the crops, the indus
tries, the habits of life and cost Of
living, the peculiarities of each town
and county, the financial conditions and
business prospects, tourist accommo-
dations and openings for settlers. It is
truthful and sincere as well as dressed
in beautiful garb. Gen. Otis does his
State great service in issuing such a
noble annual.
