V -1 riotmlation -There is every icaxon why rice fehould be a daily article of diet in planning the menu. It is more nutri tious than the potato and it digests very readily. When pioperly cooked and served it is an ideal starchy food. Unpolished rice contains all the nutriment of the grains, which is ap proximately 0 per cent fat, 8 per .. . cent protein, 7!) per cent caibohy drates. The polished vaiiety con tains an average of 88 per cent nutii ment. Polished rice has been lobbed of its vital life-giving elements. Rice is graded for size and condi tion and is then prepaied for the trade. It is known as fancy head rice, choice, prime, good, medium, common and screenings. Pat nn rice, the small, slender, well-rounded grain, is in great demand in tho Kast, , with the Japan, Siam, Java, Ran goon and Basscin varieties closely following. In this country the Caro lina, Japan and Honduras are popu larly in demand. The Carolina rice is a large, svveet fiavorcd grain of good color and ap pearance. Japanese rice is a thick bodied, soft-grained vanety. Hon duras variety is the slender, well shaped grain. The preparation of rice for the markets involves, first, the threshing and, second, the milling, which ic moves the husks, and, third, the pol ishing to produce the pearly white gloss which so many folks think is very desirable. Polished rice has been robbed of nearly all its fat and mineial con tent, and thus its food value is low ered and it is deprived of its flavor. I The rice dishes as prepared in the I Oriental countries are made from fancy unpolished head rice and they form some of the main dishes. The Oliental first washes his lice jn several waters, rubbing it vigot ously between the hands. This thor- nmrVi1v cleans it- Now. to follow this method have a saucepan containing boiling water and then add the rice slowlv. so that the water continually Wiila CnnVr until tpnder ami then remove the lid from tho saucepan .-.,..., il-- -i ...lit, ll. ifanu cover inu ncu wim u v-ium iu absorb the moisture. Set in a warm place for five minutes. This will give a saucepan contain ing a mass of delicious, fluffy lice, each grain distinct and separate. ., Now, if you carefully measure 00th your rice and then the water, it will not be necessary for you to drain off the excess water and thus lose the valuable mineial and fat content. How to Cook Rice American Style Place in a double boiler two nnd one-half cups of boiling water and then add one teaspoon' of salt. Now add blowly one-half cup of well- washed unpolished rice. Cover and cook until the rice is tender and the water absorbed. Remove the lid and then cover the rice closely with a clean napkin apd cook for five min utes. This will fluff each grain of tice. It is now ready to serve, cither .plain as a vegetable to replace the t potato or prepared into many de lectable dishes that our Oriental neighbors relish so keenly.

The cultivation of rice in Louisi ana is more than a hundred years old. Louisiana now piocluces a crop of this cereal larger than the entire crops of the states of Georgia and Carolina. The tourist who visits Louisiana during the time of the rice market enjoys a scene that is rarely duplicated elsewhere in tho civilized world, for here are gathered the buy ers fiom all paits of tho country.

OVERLOOKING THE THINGS IN CHILDREN'S HEARTS The Story of a Little Boy Who Tried to Keep His Mother From Seeing WJiat He Had in His Hand TTI3 WAS sh nnd he wns Mealing In the living room at o'clock Knstcr Saturday night with something behind his hack.

No nnsvver and then and there, in that awful moment nf silence, something tragic, happened. Three 'niekcN nnd n half dollar jingled lo the lloor.
