Years Of untold suffering
can be avoided II the real
cause Of a disease can be defi-
nitely determined, and the
proper method Of treatment
employed. Hence those af-
flicted with Eczema will con-
tinue to suffer as long az they
consider the disease a condi-
ton of the skin, and rely sole
ly upon local applications of
salves, ointments and similar
remedies. II you really want

lief only from treatment that
is directed toward cleaning
the blood Of the disease germs.
This is why S. s. S. is so sue
cessful in the treatment of Ec-
zema and all other diseases
of the blood; because it acts
as an antidote to any impuri-
ty that finds lodgment in the

eliminating from the blood all

American nation through enormous
purchases Of motor trucks by the
government. 1t is safe 10 say that
many OF these sources Of ailments
have been denied the public sim
ply because the means OF reaching
them has not been utilized hereto

Investigation has shown that
there is more than one agency 10
blame. The farmer has told men
with the Goodrich fleet that he
would gladly raise more if he had
the means 10 transport il. That
the parcel post system has not made
a great impression on him, though
ne ought 10 use it more. is shown
by a QUESTIONABLE mailed 20 40,-
600 persons in a certain rural COM
munity. This query made an at
tempt 10 link consumer and pro-
Queer Just 500 out Of 10000 an
swered the QUESTIONABLE.
Postal officials have shown that
the balance OF trade is heavily
against the agriculturaist today
something light eight TO one. The
motor truck, they believe, can
equalize this. There is no reason
why il shouldn't. Goodrich drivers
assert that the Tennessee farmers
were so overjoyed at the prospec;
of better transportation OF then
products that they induced the state
to appropriate 100000 at once
for the Improvement of roads.
Goodrich tire testers have found
that the greatest advantage of a
rural delivery system, adequately
operated by motor trucks, is the
saving in time for the farmer.
Heretofore the farmer has been
obliged TO hitch up his team and
drive 10 market every morning,
provided the market was near. his
activity on his farm being gagged
by the time occupied at market.
With the great clamOus among the
agriculturalists over the shortage
of help th.s - ar il is imperative,
leading cuItiyatprs point out, that
the farmer - permitted 10 remain
as much as possible on his acreage.
Otherwise the nation at large must
suffer from insufficient production.
Motor trucks can relieve him of this
burden government motor
