Going After Crooked Seed Companies

Washington to Be a "City Beautiful"

1t is, indeed, something of a boom
town, and its real estate dealers are
driving stakes and bargains out in the
woods far beyond the boundaries
Washington knew a dozen years ago.
Washington is growing in impor
lance as a city Of handsome homes.
Even Its Faubourg st. German.
Georgetown, admits that the city
proper has acquired a society of its
own that is not made up wholly OF
public magnates and department
clerks. The former gaps In its
street plan are now worth fabulous
sums per front foot, and Pierre Len
fant's estimate of the Washington Of
the future has been proven none too
liberal.
To imagine Washington In 1850, 1t
is only necessary to recall 1t In 1850.
The various appropriations made to
insure the system Of parks In proper
ton to the growth Of the city, have
been investments. The perfection OF
the system of linking the various
reservations together may be done
more cheaply now than after ten more
years have passed. and 1t will he done
sooner or later.

IN AGONY WITH ITCHING

"About four years ago l broke QUE
with sores on my arms like boils. AZ
ter two months they were all over my
body, some coming, and some going
away. In about six months the boils
quit, but my arms, neck and body
broke out with an itching, burning
rash. 1t would burn and itch, and
come out in pimples like grains OF
wheat. l was In a terrible condition;
l could not sleep or rest. Parts of my
flesh were raw, and l could scarcely
bear my clothes on. l could not lie
in bed in n position and rest. In
about a year the sores extended down

with the burning, itching sores. I
could hardly walk and for a long time
l could not put on socks.

THE question Of park Improvement
in Washington is by no means
local. The capital will eventually be-
come the most beautiful of cities. 1t
now has more trees planted In its
streets than Paris boasts. 1t will
never have the CRIME of either Paris
or London. 1t has park possibilities
unsurpassed by those of any city in
the world. With wood and water, hill
and valley, its reservations now ex-
listing, and its areas that should be
reserved, and may be reserved at cost
much below their future value. its
system OF minor and major parks,
bride paths and ~boulevards, leaves
nothing to be desired but a little COM
p%aratively economical legislation to
link some of its units.
The "City Of Magnificent Distances"
has already become a realized dream.
