Eat Rice, Grow Fat, Save Money

This is free advertisement for rice. Rice is
one Of the few food products that has not adj
vanced in price A quarters worth of rice will
carry you further than so cents worth of beef.
A quarters worth of rice will carry you as far as
so cents worth of flour.
Rice is wholesome food. Fashion caused a
reduction of the greatest food value in rice re-
curing it to be polished There ought to be law
forbidding the whitening Of flour and polishing
of rice The law should be so that the whole grain
should be ground into flour. People would have
better teeth and better digestion
But this article is about cheap food and not
about the business of keeping healthy.
Rice is the chief diet of about third of the
population of the world The rice eating Jap
whipped the filling out of the tallow and flour
eating Russian. A man can go further on rice
diet than on any other single article of food that
is grown.
So, if you do not want to spend all your mon
ey for food, buy rice.
IF you want to have variety in your diet,
and that cheaply, buy sweet potatoes And if you
want dessert buy some moasses Rice sweet
potatoes and moasses are the only food products
we know of that are not high. Eat rice, it is
healthful; and eat rice it is cheap.-Memphis
