Making New Fruits and Flowers.

Prof. L. II. Bailey writes in The
Worlds Work of the remarkable work
Of Luther Burbank, who makes new
fruits and flowers by a marvellous knach
of crOss-breeding furthered by long and
careful experience.
"Mr. Burbank" says Prof Bailey, mo
longer makes any serious effort to keep
a written record of his crosses. He re-
members the parentage. In many cases
he applies the pollen or two or more
kinds of plants to one flower. He does
not know which pollen will take Neither
does he always remove the stamens from
the crossed flowers, as we are always
advised to do in order that the plant may
not be self-pollinated. In practice he
finds that this precaution is usually I'M
necessary, for the pistil is likely to refuse
pollen from the same flower. When the
seedlings come up, he can tell what the
cross was; or, if he cannot, 1t matters
little for he is not making his expert
mentS primarily for the purpose of accu-
mulating scientific records, but in order
to obtain definite results in new varieties.
Yet, so careful and acute are his judg-
ments that one places great confidence
in his conclusions as to parentage; and
many times he makes crosses with every

convinced that he has produced plum-apri-
cot hybrids. The marks of plums and
apricots are too apparent in the fruits
and trees to be doubted. Perhaps the
plums have received greater share of
Mr.. Burbank's attention than any other
kind of plant. New plums are growing
on his place literally in thousands. A
number of them have been introduced

ing, where Gen. McCook took possession
of boats as theT arrived and loaded them
with his troops for Pittsburg Landing.
Our brigade, under command OF Col. hlrk,
followed Immediately after Rousseau. At
ter waiting several hours for boat, one
was at length secured for our regiment,
and, with Gen. McCook on board, we
steamed to Pittsburg Landing.
We diSembarked about daybreak, just
as the firing began which ushered in an
other moody day. The scene here presented
was far from encouraging. Many thou
sands of panic-Stricken soldiers thronged
the shore and warned US not TO go for
ward to certain destruction. Reaching
the top of the bank we moved forward,
soon finding our path strewn with dead
Union soldiers, q few within a quarter
of a mile of the Landing, but increasing
in number as we advanced, until blue
and gray dead and wounded were mingled
together. Needless TO piteous cries ana
means from friends and foes, we stepped
over their mangled forms to aid our com
rades in front, whose obstinate courage
and resistance had thus far preserved
the army from destruction.
Rousseau's Brigade, in advance of ours,
was placed by Gen. McCook on the right
of Crittenden's Division, and became i'm
mediately engaged with a heavy force of
the enemy trying to break our line at
this point, where a gap existed before our
arrival.
Unfortunately for the Confederates,
they directed their heaviest attack where
Ruclls fresh troops were in position, en-
such vigorous resistance that
no progress could be made on their part.

A Question Answered.
- SA'
HiDpincott's,l

Gen. Sherman was one of the most an.
proachable men who ever commanded n
great army. During his famous March
TO the Sea" both North and South were
completely mystifed as to what point he
was striking for, and one day an old
Georgia planter who had called at his
headquarters and enjoyed his good cheer,
asked him plumply if he had any obiec-
ton to telling where his army was bound.
Not the least" said Sherman. Then.
leaning over, he whispered in his guest S
ear, but so loudly that everybody else
in the tent overheard it, I'VE are going
pretty much where we damn please."
