Pop Corn 
It pays to raise Pop 
Corn as a general crop. 
The demand usually ex- 
ceeds the supply. Some 
farmers claim it is as 
easily grown as field 
corn, and they receive 
three or four times the 
amount per acre for the 
crop. For main crop the 
White Rice will bring 
the best prices per pound 
as it is better known. 
Let the children try a 
patch.
