Get This Rice Idea 



After years of experimenting and 

 testing we have perfected an original 

 process for preparing the natural 

 CYCAS which has revolutionized trade 

 customs. 



RICE STANDARD CYCAS 

 (not varnished or painted) 

 rustle in the slightest breeze, feel and 

 look like the living palm. Unfading, 

 permanent, economical. Their good- 

 ness is appealing.

 thank us for interesting you.

 a vacation spent at Milwaukee.

John Michelsen, of the E. C. Amling 

 Co., who spent last week in the east, 

 says that the violet growers along the
