The Food Value of Rice

The consumption of rice is increasing rapidly, and also the land on which it is grown. A few years ago Louisiana was considered the principal State for rice cultivation, but it has been grown successfully in Texas, Arkansas, South Carolina, Florida, Mississippi, North Carolina, Alabama, and California. Its home consumption is rapidly increasing. A clearer understanding of its food value has been propagated by the Rice Association of America. That is good. Rice is an excellent food. Its growth as a food ought to increase with California raisins.
