A Bundle of Rice 



In recent years rice has been introduced into northern 

 California, and is now grown quite extensively in some re- 

 gions. Not only is it grown in the water, according to the usual cus- 

 tom, but there are also upland varieties that grow like wheat 

 or rye on ordinary soil. It is probable that the pro- 

 duction of rice will become an important 

 industry along the Pacific Coast.
