SKIN TROUBLE ON LEG

618 w. Grace st., Richmond, Va
VI had a running sore on my leg for
from three to five years. It burst and
blood came from It, then It got red
around, and was as large as a dollar.
It turned white in the middle Of the
sore, and then began to itch and bleed.
After washing It would bleed for hours
at time. Some nights I did not sleep
through the whole night. / spent
eighty dollars on the sore and It didn't
get well. I got worse and fell of to
eighty-nine pounds. This went on for
four years. I was told it could not get
well. One Of my friends said I ought
to try Cuticura Soap and Cuticura
Ointment, SO I did. After I had used
them one month the sore was gone
and the itching stopped; and I have
never had any trouble since. That
was five years ago.
n IL had a fever and all my hair came
out. I shampooed with a lather of
Cuticura Soap and then rubbed the
Cuticura Ointment over the scalp and
my hair came back and now It Is long

same states. This statment is made
with full knowledge Of the facts, be-
cause at that time such seed was Be-
lected and dried in those very sections
that was practically perfect and ger
minated 100 per cent.
Having personally assisted In the
gathering and drying Of seed corn IN
those sections in septemb, , the writ
or knows that quantities OF seed
could have been saved at that time
from the same and many other fields.
Unfortunately, however, most farmers
postponed the selection until freezing
weather, with the consequence that
the seed will not yield well and most
of 1t did not terminate well. It is not
the season SO much as the man.
There are usually a few days be-
tween the time the corn stops grow
ing and the coming Of frosts, especial
ly If an acclimated corn is grown.
We would have better corn yields and
make better progress In originating
and acclimating higher yielding
strains of corn for different local..
ties If seed corn as readily
killed by. frosts as r sweet potato
vines. If seed corn would not stand
80 much abuse and If it were killed
outright by the first frost farmers
would dry their seed corn before they
dig their potatoes, and the next
years crop would be better.
