PROHIBITION ENDS
''BARBARY COAST"
No Longer Does Music and

in Famous Quarters.

SAN FRANCISCO. FEB. IT,
Those who may come TO San Fran
cisco at the time Of the democratic
convention the latter part OF June
with the idea Of experiencing a thrill
by visiting the "Barbary Coast" will
be disappointed
Many Of the resorts. celebrated in
story and verse as the scenes Of des-

" known as "crimps." freely piled

permanently closed. Others have but
the name of the places that once
famed with color. music and revelry.
Long before national prohibition
was generally considered a pOssibil-
ity. "Barbary Coast" a section Of
Pacific st. extending back from the
bay front, a half dozen blocks to
where Chinatown touches the Italian
district, had been rendered innocuous
by the prohibition OF the sale Of
LIQUOR in the long row of dance halls
there.
The main artery from this district
to Market St. San FranciscO's prin-
cipal thoroughfare. is Kearney St,
where once it is declared. within an
hour enough reckless spirits could be
picked up to start almost any sort
OF desperate enterprise. Now Kear-
uev is one Of the QuieteSt and most
respectable business streets.

Neither PIow, Shovel or Hoe Needed for
This Vital Crop; Shows Value
of Wild Rice.

BISMARCK. y. D.. Feb. IL
Neither the pillow. the shovel or the
hoe is essential to one OF the most
important food crops in America to-
day. according TO DR.. Melvin r.
Gilmore. curator OF the North Da-
kota Historical society. emphasiz-
ing the potential value OF wild rice
or mock oats"
Or. Gilmore is engaged in an in
vestigation OF North American pos
sibilities in cultivation OF native
plants. One OF his recent announce
ments relative 20 the food value OF
the water lily genus "Nelumbo
lutea." commonly known as the
American lotus. has resulted in Va
ried inquiries from the commercial
world Among the more recent
was a letter from an official OF the
Mississippi Valley Park association
who owns land in northern Iowa
dotted with lily ponds.

Responding TO letters on the sub

the investigator states. TT abounds
in fresh water from a few inches to
several feet deep. In its native state
IL sows itself and has thus become
abundant in sections throughout the
continent. particularly in the north
ern lake region. Although it is on
the market to some extent, IL is re-
ceiving by no means the attention f.
deserves from the American peo-
pie as a whole.
The Indians considered wild
rice a food factor so vital that it
was worth fighting for. The Chip

the Minnesota lake region in order
TO procure the rice fields. the Incl

Indians Used Wild Rice
DR.. Gilmore reports tindings
which indicate the Indians used wild
rice much as other small grains are
now used It should not be con-
fused with the common variety Of
rice. he says. because IL is an entire
" different genus. II has much the
appearance OF oats and was known
TO the early French settlers as
"fOlle avoine" or fool oats" The
Indians had various names for il.
the Chippewas calling il "manOmin, "
from which later came the designa-
ton OF the Menomini or wild rice"
tribe.
"Manomin" has played an import
ant part geographically in the Cen
trail West. the curator notes. He
cites the names Of numerous geo
graphic units derived from various
applications for the product Among
these are the names OF such cities
and lakes in Wisconsin and Min
nesota as Menominee, Lac des FOlle
AvOine, and Rice lake.
Harvesting i'm Boats.
Better harvesting is at present a
prime requirement to increase and
Improvement OF the crop. Or. Gil
more says. The Indians went about
the waterways in canoes or row
boats to knock off and collect the
grains. Modern harvesters travel
about the ponds and lakes in
launches and a mOtor-propelled fan
or paddle drives the rice into the
boat.
By increasing wild rice supply, ne
notes that the flesh supply also
would be increased since the prod
uct is a favorite food OF water fowl.
He states The biological survey at
Washington is actively interested i'm
augmenting the area devoted to
growing Of wild rice because Of its
value as food for ducks and water
fowl generally.
