Everybody knows that of late years
natural forces have been wonderfully
subjected to mans need. We are
dazzled by the spectacular achieve.
ments in steam and electricity, but are
likely to forget the less noisy but no
less marvellous conquest of animal and
plant life. Horses are swifter, cattle
heavier, cows give more milk and sheep
have finer fleeces than in days gone by.
In plants the transformation is even
more marked. People now living can
remember when the number of edible
fruits and vegetables was far less than
at present and even those that could be
grown were vastly inferior to what we
now have. For example, our parents
knew nothing of the tomato, except as
curious ornament in the garden.
Sweet corn was hardly better than the
commonest field sorts. All oranges had
seeds. Celery was little known and
poor In quality. In the. flower bed the
magnificent pansy has replaced the in
significant hearts ease from which is
was developed, and the sweet pea in all
its dainty splendor traces its origin to
the common garden vegetable.
This progress has been made in spite
OF the great tendency manifested in all
plants and animals to 60 back to the
original type. 1t ia indeed battle to
keep strains pure and up to the stand
ard they have already attained, let
alone any improvement. The practical
results are accomplished by men operat-
ing largely for love of the work, like
Luther Burbank, in California, and
Eckford in England, as we'll as by the
great seed merchants, D. M. Ferry &
Co., of Detroit, Mich, who are not
only eternally vigilant to hold what
ground has been gained, but have a
corps of trained specialists, backed by
ample means, to conduct new expert
ments. The results of their expert
ences can be found in their 1905 Seed
Annual, which they will send tree to
all applicants.

off-color, and this raised suspicion; it
was salmon tint instead of the car

pronounced genuine by experts at first,
but there was a slight shading on the
figures and a U that did not tally
