Burbank Compares Plants WihLife

SANTA MONICA. Cal.-Luther
Burbank, famed plant wizard, is
willing to admit that patience and
persistence are two OF the prime
requisites for success in his chosen
profession.
How he selects very carefully the
hest plants for grating purposes and
how few Of tho many he receives
from all parts OF the world are really
worth anything I'm an experimental

gardens at his three-acre ranch here.

carefully go over them, taking the
best to work with. IL is surprising
to note that out of possibly five hum
dred specimens l can use but one
and sometimes none"
Here tho famed man compared
his selection of the best plants to
real life.
After all, life itself Is but a mat
ter of selection" he said. I'VE pick
for ourselves what we think would
be most beneficial to us. In select q
ing plants for use In my experiments
try to choose those which would
be the most beneficial to mankind" &"
he said.
According TO Burbank, his best Sc %

countries, such as Central and South
America. From one particular Sec
ton In Paraguay, he said he re-
ceived some especially fine selec-

Thomas Bradley to Speak on
Subject at Convention in
San Francisco.

One OF the most important con-
ferences to be held at the annual
convention OF the National Asso.
citation OF Real Estate Boards which
convenes In San Francisco, May
81. according TO John A. Petty.
executive secretary OF the Wash
ington Real estate Board. is the
one on appraisals. Much interest
from a local standpoint is attached
to this conference because Thomas
Bradley. vice president OF the
Washington Loan & Trust Com
pany, will deliver an address on
the subject and conduct the dis
cussion following.
The appraisal OF real estate, Mr..
Petty stated. Ia being developed as
the most scientific branch Of work
in the profession. Ii requires espe-
cial ability that can only he ac-
quired by constant study and con
tact with city's development to-
gether with years of experience in
general real estate lines.
This line OF work has been re-
ceiving special attention by the Ma
tional Association Of Real Estate
Boards through its committee on
appraisals. Official appraisals by
real estate boards are being recog-
nized and accepted throughout the
country as the best means Of OBJ
tanning expert opinion on values.
This Is easily understood when II
il considered that a certificate Of
real estate board represents an
appraisement arrived at after care
tul consideration by committee OF
practical and experienced realtors
who disinterest edly study each
property appraised and arrive at a
conclusion after thorough discus
sion by the entire committee.
The value OF having recognized
sources from which expert opinion
can be produced In a formal GER
tificate OF an orga nization consist
ing OF experts, Is becoming known
In all communities. This work is
of special benefit In the matter OF
adjusting income taxes where real
estate values are involved. as well
as the adjustment OF inheritance
taxes which are required in many
States. Real estate boards through
out the country are frequently
called on for appraisals in connec-
tion with the administration and
distribution OF estates.
The fact that the Washington
hoard ranked sixth with all boards
throughout the country in the de-
velopment of appraisal work during
the last year will give considerable
prestige to the local delegation.
