COMMERCIAL ACREAGE
OF VEGETABLE CROPS
Compared With Last Year Mark
ed Reduction Is Shown.
Estimates Based on Reports Received
From Seed Growers-Increase Is
Indicated for Sugar Beet and
Garden Peas.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture)
The prospective commercial acreage
of vegetable-seed crops for 1920 COM
pared with last year, shows marked
reductions in the acreage reported for
dwarf snap beans, all beet, carrot, let
tuce, onion seed, radish spinach, sweet
corn, and tomato seed, while a slightly
increased acreage is reported for gar
den pole beans, cucumber, muskmelon.
watermelon, parsley, pepper, pump
kin, and Swede turnip seed
These estimates are based on re-
ports received by the bureau of mar
kets, early in April from commercial
vegetable-Seed growers and are as ac-
curate and complete as it was possible
to obtain, at that time.
The estimated prospective produc-
ton for 1920 Computed on the basis
OF the acreage reported and the av-
erage yield per acre for the four-yeor
period 191G-19lO, compared with that
for 1919, is about 80 per cent less for
sweet corn and English turnip; 80 per
cent less for dwarf snap beans, celery,
parsnip, and squash 60 per cent less
for cabbage and radish; and about
50 per cent less for garden and mangel
beet, carrot, onion seed, and spinach.
while an Increase is indicated of 90
per cent for sugar beet and garden
peas and 80 per cent for onion sets.
The estimated acreage and prospect
I've production for 1920 are more com
parable with those for 1917, and the re-
auctions in acreage and production as
noted should not be taken as an indica-
tion that the vegetable-seed growing
industry in this country is on the de-
cline from that of prewar years.

Everywhere in the near east the
traveller finds these stOry-tellers to-

q HEHERAZADE was a vizier's
daughter and when she beSought
~ her father to wed her to King
Shahriar it was cause for grief to the
vizier. For each day was it Shahriar's
wont to put to death his bride of the
day before. 1t befell, however, that
Sheherazade had her will. AS she had
hoped, the king was wakeful and to
beguile him she began a story Of
magic. Dawn broke before she had
finished and so eager was Shahriar to
hear it all that he gave no order for
her execution.
For q thousand and one nights did
this befall while Sheherazade told
tales Of love, war and sorcery. Of kings,
beggars and rOgues, Of lands where
diamonds were more plentiful than
pebbles and bigger than eggs, Of in
trigues in the lanes and baZaars OF
Oriental cities. In towns and deserts
and far islands did necrOmancers work
their wills. Horses flew; dogs talked !;
mermaidens and creatures greater
than whales peopled the deeps; ogres
and enormous apes crept out of for
ests; birds so great that their wings
darkened the day swooped from the
skies. Here, too were lovers In pal
aces and novels, bold and cowardly,
vet all so enamored that they swOoned
at the very thought of the beloved.
Underlying all was the colorful ORR
ent, with BARRIERS and porters jostling
caliphs and princesses in the thronged
and picturesque lanes of three cities
whose very names conjure up romance
-Bagdad, Cairo and Damascus.
Now these are the best liked of She
heraZade's tales:
The Story of AIaddin's Lamp.
OF Aladdin, son of a poor tailor In
China, a prankish scamp. An African
magician guided him to subterranean
cave where he found the lamp that
summoned the genie. Out of nothing
ness did this genie spread banquets
for Aladdin and robe him in rich raj
ment. He provided him retinues of
slaves, bearing basins heared high
with precious stones, who carried to
the king Aladdin's suppliance for the
hand of the beautiful Princess Badroul-
boudour. In night did the genie raise
a palace of glowing wonders, of shin
ing marble and gold and silver, with
windows incrusted with diamonds, en-
eralds and rubies, with fragrant gar
dens and open courts. So Aladdin mar
ried the princess and they knew great
Joy. But the magician returned, stole
the lamp and in a trice transported
the palace and the princess to Africa,
Then was Aladdin woeful, but by

suffering by keeping him away
from the intelligent, sensible
treatment that will get results.
He endeavors to get relief from
the pain and torture by the use
of ointments, lotions and other
local treatment applied to the
surface of the skin.
These remedies will prove
beneficial, if temporary relief is
all that is wanted. But just as
soon as their soothing effect is
over, the pain and suffering re-
turn with increased severity.
This has been the experience of
other sufferers, and yours will be
the same.
Skin disorders, like other all
ments, must be treated at their
source if you want to be perman-
emily rid Of them. Any disease
that can cause so much torture,
end discomfort is deep-seated,
and comes from far below the
surface of the skin.
The millions of tiny disease
germs must be removed from the
blood, before you can expect to
get rid of your skin troubles, but
all of the local treatment in the
world will not do this. The most
satisfactory remedy for this pur-
pose is S.S.S., the fire Did vege-
table blood remedy that has
given such splendid results in
similar cases.
S.S.S. acts by cleansing the
blood thoroughly, and routing
all disease germs that act
through the skin. Those who
want real results should begin
its use at once.

What, then is the mistake,
that the average person afflicted
with skin disorders, makes in his
effort for relief? And why is
it that the error is so general?
In the first place, eczema, tet-
Ter, scaly cruptions and other ir-
ritations of the skin are exceed
ingly annoying, and in many
cases, the itching and burning
become intensely terrifying. Of
ten the victim is kept awake at
night scratching and rubbing the
burning skin, in an effort to get
some relief.
Because what he secs and
feels of his affliction is on the
surface. he is misled into the err
ror of believing that all treat
mcnt should be directed toward
the location of the pain and dis
comfort. Then, too, because of
the intensity of the suffering, he
is willing to try almost anything
that he thinks will afford some
measure of relief, no matter how
slight.
This leads him headlong into
the mistake that is so general,
