Louisiana Rice

The cultivation of rice began in louisiana nearly a hundred years after it commenced in Georgia and South Carolina, but Louisiana now produces more of this beautiful grain than both of these states combined. It is one of the great Louisiana staples, and New Orleans is the distributing point of the immense crops that yearly make our immense Rice fields of southwestern Louisiana the wonder and admiration of tourists.

In no section of the world can Rice be grown at so small a cost as in Louisiana. The cost of growing the grain in our matchless clime is small, and it requires but little capital to begin.
