Burbank a Practical Man.

Although the world stands aghast
and awe-stricken in contemplating the
achievements of Edison, Maroon,
Wright and others, yet their achieve
ments in the field of science and in
vention are not any more marvellous
that those of Burbank, the plant
wizard. He has during the past SO
years developed and perfected more
than 500 species of fruits, vegetables
and flowers and is in the present crisis
concentrating his genius and energies
upon the food problem. How fortu-
nate it is for humanity that Burbank,
unlike many a man who possesses so
decided talent as to be classed as a
genius, is intensely practical. In
stead of devoting his efforts of the
past half century to certain forms of
plant life that would be of no actual
benefit to humanity, he has trans
formed seemingly worthless plants
into food-producing plants for man
and beast. The fruits of his toll have
been of practical benefit to his fell
lows.
He comes to the nations rescue now,
a time when every effort. is being
made to increase the production of
food crops. In an interview a few
days ago Mr.. Burbank said: 81 am
putting my best into the problem of
growing more and better grains and
forage, to avert distress and the loom
ing tragedy of a world faced by star
~vation." What a privilege it is to be
living at a time when the world is be-
ing blessed by Luther Burbank and
other scientists of his class.

eral billions of dollars is no strain on
the government or drain On the people.
A large portion of the money soon
finds its way back through the regular
channels of trade and everybody
through whose hands it passes realizes
a profit. So, instead of producing
%stagnation, by taking enormous sums
out of circulation, the floating of a war
loan by "Uncle Sam" stimulates and
increases the volume of business. Ii
is a somewhat anomalous condition,
yet true, that war has meant increased
prosperity to America. However, there
are none so selfish as to desire the war
continued in order that the wave OF
prosperity may rise higher anu higher.

Government Money Helps Business.

The food-gates of the national
treasury are being opened and the
countless millions of dollars that were
paid for Liberty Bonds are now finding
their way back into the pockets of the
people who paid the money. There
will hardly be a section of the coun-
try, any line OF business or class of cit
liens that will not be benefited by the
large amount that will be put into cir
culation. The enormous sums that are
being expended for labor and material
used in the construction of the canton
ments can already be felt and after
the newly drafted army has been
chartered in these camps the eXpen-
ditures of the government will steadily
increase.
Men from practically every class Of
skilled and unskilled workmen have
gathered in Columbia from all parts of
the State to assist in the construction
of the cantonment at that place. All
of them are paid high wages and money
is being sent back home to their fami-
lies. Quite a number have gone from
Edgefeld county to enter the govern
ment employment in Columbia, and
now that farm work is practically
completed for a season it is probable
that others will go from this section.
