 Another interesting development was the request received during the past week by Joe Lyon. chairman of publi- city, from Mir French of ElDOrad0, who asked for recipe books and full information about Arkansas rice. for use in his newly opened Golden Tea Room and Rice Kitchen in the oil city. Mir. French intends to serve rice at all hours and in all forms, he says.
 Negotiations for 25, ,O and 100 cars of rice from St Louis brokers have been received as a result of thes recent rice publicity, Mir. Lyon said. These calls have been of vital interest as there has hitherto been no market for rice in St Louis. The price ac the mills has advanced, giving the farm CTS better price on their product and providing the material success of the Rice Week" campaign, MT. Lyon said.

Seattle, Wash. Nienty million ciga of Virginia factories, have been loaded into the hold of thes Kamagura Maru, which sails this week for Japan.
 The cigarettes are consigned to Shanghai China. from here they will be distributed over the Chinese repub lie. In China the American smokes have become a great luxury and there is an enormous demand for them.
 There were r carloads in the ship, ment. which consisted of 1900 cases.
 The Chinese are planning to raise their own tobacco, for in the same cargo there is shipment of 800 pounds of the best Southern tobacco seed which is being sent to Shanghai and from where the government will distribute it among various localities to farmers for seed trial
 The Chinese are acquiring the ciga- rette habit rapidly. 1t having been but few years ago the first American to- hacco was sent to the Far East. The Japanese are addicted to the cigarette too. but they are importing their smokes from the Philippines. The Jap anese once tried to sell these Philippine cigarett to the Chinese as American goods, but they were turned down and later shipments were boycOtted some thing in which the Chinese are very ' tproficient.
 In China everyone who can afford to buy tobacco smokes and so far the country has not been worried by any | attempts Co start prohibition act against the cigarette.
 This enormous shipment came to Se- attle just as the anti-cigarette move | ment had gotten started. The first news of the big cargo of tobacco for overseas caused big sensation in the ranks of the local anti-cigarette league. St Louis Post Dispatch.
