ACTS TO BROADER MARKET FOR
 RICE
Commissioner of Agriculture Also
 Plans to Help Syrup Producers

Baton Rouge, La, Nov. 20.-Steps are being taken by Harry D. Wilson, commissioner of agriculture, to aid the rice farmers to broaden the market for rice and to help the cane syrup producers to cheapen the cost of mak- ing that product.
 Mr. Wilson has requested rice mill CTS to pack rice in small packages un- der proper brands for the purpose of caterng to the demand of retailers and consumers who have asked that rice be put up in containers. If the millers will do this, and print recipes for cooking on the cartons, Mir. Will son believes the consumption of rice will be materially increased.
 The commissioner has recommended to the railroads in Tangipahoa and other sections of the Florida parishes, especially along the railroads built for logging purposes, that the rail lines encourage farmers who produce sugar cane for syrup making purposes to have the juice extracted from the cane, boiled to about 15 degrees to prevent souring and shipped in tank cars to large syrup manufacturing plants.
 Mr. Wilson believes this will cheap en the cost of manufacturing syrup and have the effect of developing the syrup-making business on a large scale in that section. The proposi- tion is under consideration by the rail- roads,

CONDITIONS BETTER IN RICE
 DISTRICT 4
Packing in Small Cartons to increase
 Sales, Is Prediction

Crowley, La., Nov. 20-Condition in the rice district are improving as a result of the efforts of the Southern Rice Growers Association to develop better plans for marketing the crop and to increase the consumption of rice in this country.
 The demand for the product has increased lately and a consider able number of sales have been re- ported The sales are made mainly ters of the Rice Growers Association and the orders are filled in this sec tion as rapidly as they are received.
 Threshing has been almost com pleted in the Crowley section but in the Jennings and Welsh districts large amount of rice still remains shocked in the fields. The situation around Jennings and Welsh is due mainly to insufficient warehouse fa- cllities to store the crop. However, with the sales picking up lately, more room is being found in the Jefferson Davis parish warehouses.
 Representatives of the rice industry are studying trade conditions with the view of increasing the consump- tion of rice Among the important suggestions along this line comes from former representative of the United States Food Administration. This former official expresses the opin- ion that if the mills will pack rice in small fibre packages or cartons, with standard brands for the different grades, the consumption of rice in the United States vii be increased from 75 to 100 per cent.
 This official bases his suggestion on his experiences during the world war. He travelled all over the coun- try and made close study of the food situation. During the war many re- tailers and consumers complained to him because they could not get stand- ard brands of rice in small packages.
 The retailers want rice packed in small containers because 1t is easier handled and cuts out the cost and trouble of weighing. Consumers pre- fer rice in cartons because they get exactly the quantity and quality that they desire.
 The Seaboard Rice Mill at Calves ton, Texas, was the first mill to take up the package or carton plan and carry it into effect. The Seaboard mill is now marketing large portion of it's output in small packages with marked success. No doubt mills in other sections of the rice district will follow.

IS LOCATED
 IN MOUNTAIN CRATER

Located in the crater of a snow capped mountain on Unalaska island, one of the Aleutian group, is q large deposit of sulphur believed to contain from 10000 to 15,O0O tons. A claim has been filed for the loca- tion and mining operations will start in the near future. Subterranean heat and a hot vapor issue from the cracks in the rocks and keep the deposit free from ice and snow, though these permanently covered nearly all the remainder of the peak, which is about six thousand feet i'll height Another sulphur deposit has been discovered on Akun island, in the same group, and third near

If Doc Horna- day hears of this revolution, will he want a closed season on Russians so that they may be saved with the fast disappearing brown bears for the sole use of Eastern sportsmen?
