SEED WILL Be KEPT
IN SAFE DEPOSIT BOX
LIMITED pnEss LEASED WIRE. l


San Francisco, Jan. 1j.-When plant
ing time comes next Spring there is
one crop which the seeds will be taken
from burglar and fireproof vault in
San Francisco.
These seeds represent more than a
quarter of century of work by Luther
Burbank If lost or destroyed they
could not be duplicated, at any rate
for years, and it was to guard against
this that the Luther Burbank Company
stored them in the strong rooms Of the
Union Trust Company and the Sea
board National Bank.
One seed is new kind of flax, from
the oil of which artists will make their
paint. Another is a cereal known as
quino to take the place of wheat, bar.
ley or oats.
Painters have long complained that
the oil which their paints are mixed
is not neutral because of the variable
ness of the flaxseed from which it is
made, and consequently that it often
gives unexpected and sometimes unsat
isfactory effects Burbank began gath
ering every kind Of flax from all parts
of the world years ago, selected a GER
tain seed as his ideal and began devel-
oping the plant to grow only this type
Year after year the seed was planted,
and when ripe only those were kept
that were Of the type desired. Finally
a point has been reached where the
variety seems to have become fixed.
Burbank declares that the oil it pro-
duces is absolutely neutral
The quino plant is designed to take
the place of cereal foods made from
different grains The seed resembles
small hominy and the plant looks like
wild mustard 1t is claimed to have
all the food values of other grains, and
is much cheaper, moreover, III nahlhS
cracked wheat, rolled oats or barley
much of the grain is wasted. The en-
tire seed of the new plant is utilized.
Originally it came from South America,
but its development and climatization
to California soil and weather condi-
tions have taken years of study and
experiment. OF the quino seeds of the
type Burbank has produced there is
not peck in the work.
"We have put the seeds in safe de-
post vaults" said President James R.
Edwards of the Luther Burbank Com
pany, "bccause if they are destroyed
they would never be reproduced. There
are no more like them, and l doubt if
Burbank would live long enough to
develop them again. 1t will be several
years before we shall be able to raise
sufficient quantity of either seed to
be placed upon the market. "

"1T CAN'T BE DONE. Z"

The man who misses all the fun
Is he who says "It can t be donel"
In solemn pride he stands aloof
And greets each venture with reproof-
Had he the power, he'd efface
The history Of the human race;
We d have no steam nor trolley cars.
No streets lit by electric stars;
No telegraph nor telephone,
We'd linger in the age of stone
Where when some keen barbaric brain
Of life's condition dared complain,
And planned wheel on which to roll
The load his arms could not control
sneers rose from all the mighty crew
That ever scoffs at what is new.
The world would sleep if things were
run
By men who say, at can't be donel -

plowed ones lying adjacent to them,

we reflect that these tracts last year
were a tangled jungle, and, also, that

State-line Town Promises Thirty for Special Train to Vandy Races; Women Favor Tour But Not to- See Races.

After a day of conferring informally with a number Of Phoenix business men, Dr. F. H.

COYOTE CARS
 ID GLENDALE
Whole Punches of Boosters
 Will Journey to Sugar Burg to See Coyote-Glen-
 dale Scrap Saturday How the Team Looms Up

Plans for the special train to Glendale to carry the Coyote team and baseball boosters, and all the fans of Phoenix have developed to the extent that two whole cars and perhaps a third will be required to hold the many supporters of local stars. All the Coyote rooters and their friends have signified their in tention of going, and special rates will probably be made by the street car company for the fans.
 The locals are planning to tie the Indian sign on the Sugarkings in the coming meet just as they did in the game of one week past But there is promised them a harder tussle and a harder game from all sides by the husky Beet Pickers. The latter have added strength to their nine, and have reinforced their bat ting averages so that they claim they will pound anything the Coy otes offer to the backWoods.
 But the Coyotes have not been standing still and watching the strikes pass over the pan all the week. They have imported from the city nine several of the fastest and strongest pitchers, including Hall and Smokey Joe Smiley, and have warmed the wollow against the curves and drops of such stars till they claim the old Jennings '"at's the ole eye-dear," and can land on the best of men with vim and strength.
 The whole of the Coyote band will accompany the team. and will re-
 inforce the rooters with their music at times and their noise at other times. As they were an invaluable asset to the winners at the Satur-
 day contest. so they count they will
 be the biggest help to victory at the next game

This work is exceptionally fine
and as the local workmen prog
