LETTUCE CROP
SHOWS DECREASE
FROM LAST YEAR

Imperial valleys lettuce acreage
for the 1027-192S season was today
officially reported as being "a 4,695,
according to figures compiled by
Horticultural Commissioner B. A.
Harrigan. This figure shows a de-
crease over that estimated earlier
in the season, when reports made
by growers indicated that around
10000 acres would be planted. Re-
,ductiOns by some concerns account
for the lower figure. The principal
item of interest regarding this sea-
son s total is the fact that it shows
a decrease of almost 10000 acres
from last years figure, which was
34,297.
AS was the case last year. Sawdev
& Hunt lead the list with $500
acres. S. A. Gerard Company comes
second with 1,765, the American
Fruit Growers, third, with 1857 and
the Farmers Produce Company
place fourth with 1000 acres.
Other firms which have planted
from 500 to 1000 acres are as fol-
lows: A. Arena and Company,
soo;, Will S. Fawcett Company,
800; Jack Brothers and McBurney,
s25; Miller Cummings. 800; Pen
pers Fruit Company, $40; Earl Fruit
Company. 525. Acreage handled by

sote that is pleasant to take. Creomul.
sion is a new medical discovery with

sorbed into the blood, attacks the seat
of the trouble and checks the growth
Of the germs.
Creomulsion is guaranteed satsfac.
.ory in the treatment of persisten:
