has been of more benefit to Houston la
ths past five years of this ettk's growth
than all other Industries combined.
Houston ths city of ths Southwest th

been immeasurably benefited by ths de-
velopment of this great industry. Texas
sspeclally ths entire rloe belt of ths
But has been wonderfully benefited
and reaped rich rewards through ths de-
velopment of this Industry. And now
will Houston and th rice Interests of
ths Has belt of Texas show sa appre-
ciation of the benefit! and Hch reward
they have reaped? The time has come
for a definite answer and can not be
longer deferred.
There Is not a merchant or business
man In Houston but what srin readily ad-
mit that his business during th past fall
has been much In exceea or any previous
year. Houston bss enjoyed great pros-
parity the past six months and Its bust'
nees interacts and development will cer-
tainly be much greater ths coming year
than the past has been. There have been
located In Houston large Implement ware-
houses and other manufacturing Indus-
tries that have brought thousands et dol-
lars to Houston which is trsoed directly
to the development of tho Hoo Industrr
tn this Stats.
The rice crop of South Texas wflt
amount to not less than tB.00a.ttio and tt
Is an unrentable facts that Houston Is
receiving greater benefits from this de-
velopment thaa any other olty la ths

The rloe kitchen enterprls t not aa
experiment by any means. Th Ha
kitchen was Installed st Buffalo at ths
Psn-Amertoan exposition by tho Hire
Association of America with a view to
educating ths people In tho no of Hoo
and Increasing the home consumption
of ths cereal It is sntverselly admitted
by all who hare kept la touch with the
industry that the rice kitchen at Buf-
falo. N. T. was a pronounced success
snd thet through It ths borne consump-
tion of rice was Increased fully per
rent. The rice kitchen established by ths
Rice Association with th Blegel-Cooper
company's great department store at
Chicago was also a pronounced success
and It Is claimed br those who should
know that this effort added greatly to
the extending of the homo market by
teaching the people the different methods
of using rice ss well aa th proper way
of oooking It and Increased th consump-
tion at Chicago over eW per cent The
establishment of a Has kitchen at . St
Louis on the plans laid out will bo pro-
ductive of still greater results.
