"LUTHER BURBANK A FAKER."
A Harvard Professor Says wonder
herrNv is Nothinu New.


Boston, June 6.-Prof. f. NJ. East
of Harvard university branded Luther
Burbank, the famous horticultural, a
"faker" in the course of a lecture yes
terday at the Bussey institute, Forest
Hills.
Luther Burbank's widely hailed
"wonderberry" was the particular OBJ
ject of Professor East's attack, in
which he declared that the berry was
not a new discovery or production, but
member of a long established spe-
cies, years ago known and classified
by botanists and horticulturists.
The so-called white blackberry"
widely advertised by seed dealers as
highly desirable, was also attacked by
Professor East, who declared it to
be of no especial desirability and
withal, of ancient history in the hor-
ticultural world, although announced
as a new discovery"
"The audience will pardon me, am
sure" said Professor East, IF / do
not mention as great in their line
those horticulturists, who, while much
heard of through the public press,
have really achieved far less in their
labors than men like j. S. Leaning,
who has succeeded in evolving a spe-
cies of corn which may result in in
creasing the national crop 10 percent,
These men, who would be little
heard of otherwise, have become wide
ly known through the medium of ener-
getic press agents Mind you, do
not mean to belittle any real achieve
ment they may have made"

mil legal business to be destroyed

later that the business was legal
