THE BUSY LUTHER BURBANK

Some idea Of the scope OF his opera
tions may be gained from the fact that
there are growing on his farm as three
hundred thousand distinct varieties Of
plums; sixty thousand varieties Of
peaches and nectarines; FIVE thousand
almonds, and a like number Of walnuts
and chestnuts, besides thousands of
berries and flowers.
One day he discovers among the
thousands of yellow poppies growing in
one of his beds, a single flower in which
there is a threadlike touch OF scarlet
color. He isolates the plant, saves its
seeds, and plants them. Some of the
seedlings show the characteristic Of
their scarlet tinged ancestor. These
are chosen; the others are discarded.
The new seeds are planted and the
seedlings again subjected TO careful
selection. After years Of patient labor
he is rewarded by the possession of a
scarlet poppy instead OF the yellow one
with which he started Other peoples
are similarly turned to orange and
white and variegated hues.
In studying a bed OF verbenas Of a
scentless variety ne notices a. faint odor
as Of the trailing arbutus. He searches
for the plant with the odor but fails to
md it. Another year the same odor
is discovered, and a persistent flower
by flower search discloses the plant
which in some way has come to possess
this property. II IS isolated and the
work Of selection and re-selection goes
on until the result is a beautiful flower
naturally odorless, which exhales a de-
hghtful fragrance.
