CALIFORNIA RICE DOES WELL
New Agricultural Industry Produces
Crop Worth Millions
of Dollars.

Washington.-In eight years the
Sacramento valley of California has
developed new agricultural industry,
rice growing, which this Iast season
has resulted in a gross production es-
timated to be worth approximately
twenty-one millions of dollars. This
showing is the result of research car
ried on by the bureau of plant indus
try of the department of agriculture.
Following experiments by the bureau
covering three years, the first COM
mercial rice crop as planted in 1912.
The value of the 1910 rice crop in Cal
ifornia will probably be several mil
lions greater than that of wheat and
peaches, both of which are commonly
thought of as relatively large crops
in that state.
