Adapting to Climate.

How long a time usually elapseS,
Mr.. Burbank, before any of your pro-
ductions are known and appreciated?
was a question | asked while discuss
ing Mr.. Burbank's patient progress to-
ward world recognition.
'It has been my experience that it
takes from 10 to 20 years for a new
fruit to become generally fully recog-
nized and valued. And I have also
found that it is quite as difficult to
adapt the. growers to new fruit
which they find at last is far superior
to the old ones as it is to adapt new
fruit to the real wants of the people.
Are the new varieties condemned at
first2" I then asked.
Generally they are, though they
may be later accepted as- standards,
but fruits are like new inventions and
new ideas they may meet condemna-
tion at first, but If they have real
merit they are always recognized and
appreciated in the end.
at was years after the Burbank
plum was introduced before people
found out it's value. and learned that
il would thrive and bear abundant1y
in almost all regions where plums can
be grown.
1T was the same with my quinces,
berries, giant Winter rhubarb and
even the Shasta daisies. Beans, peas
and corn can be tested in six months.
but it requires years for new. fruit
to make dts way. And although so
much has already been done, a great
wide field of usefulness is open to the
plant breeder who would succeed in
adapting frslits to different localities
and climates and thereby extend, the
zone in which certain fruits can be
grown What work could be better
than traifiing fruit trees to grow and
bear III places where none could sbe
grown before?'
"Of course, many points must be
considered in this education of fruit

Yes" answered Mr.: Burbank, mot
only must the demands of the grower,
the shipper and the dealer be consider
ed, but the consumer must be satisfied
The grower asks for an early-bearing
prolific tree immune to diseases: the
shipper and the dealer seek only for
an attractive fruit that will hear ham
ding and shipping. while the CON
sumner desires a tender, attractive fruit
of good flavor.

trifie on pieces of wood or metal, the
soil will be drained of extra water,
keep in better condition and be
sweeter. BY having the box extra
deep more room is allowed for roots.
This is especially needed when such
varieties of vegetables are planned
as carrots or radishes which are
root vegetables. AS the plants them
selves are plucked when the vege-
tables are gathered for the table,
there must be a constant replenishing
of seeds or of wee plants. These are
often sold in stores that feature gar
den seeds and occasionally at green
houses that do not specialize on flow
ers and ornamental plants solely.
Important Points.
Two things are important in plants
for kitchen garden window boxes.
They must be the kinds that grow
quickly and that do not require deep
soil What would be deep earth in
a window box would be shallow in
a garden. Most of the varieties do
not grow very high. Tomatoes are
an exception. 1t is possible to grow
tomatoes in a window box, and we
shall include them among vegetables
in this discussion, although they are

to the category of fruits. Some sort
of trellis will be needed for toma-
toes. Here is an opportunity to use
the ornamental sticks and trellises
that are in demand to add decora-
ton to flower gardens. Gay birds
may seem TO f1ugter and brilliant
blossoms flourish among the green
leaves, for these are favorite tops for
garden sticks.
Some Good Plants
Lettuce is apt to thrive we'll in
window boxes. If this is raised from
seed, 1t is we'll to have some seeds
planted in another box and the tiny
plants ready to be transplanted as
those mature enough to eat have been
pulled up. In this way ii is possible
to have lettuce in rotation. Mint,
parsley and other herbs can easily
be grown in sufficient quantity in a
window box TO supply the average
to dishes or garnishes them attrac
lively. The mint leaves are fire.
quently added to iced tea and lemon
ade. They give an attractive look
to the beverage and a flavor that is
different as we'll as peculiarly re-
freshing.
Expect Little, Enjoy Much.
Do not expect too much from these
kitchen garden boxes. They can pro-
vide but lite. but what one does get
is strictly fresh. They are a salts
faction to women who long to be in
the country and potter around in
garden, but are deprived of this
pleasure. for such persons plants
will thrive, and the care bestowed
upon them reaps its reward in

RESCRIPT DENIES
PLEA BUS line FOR
IS maine ROUTES

The refusal Of the Public Utilities
Commission to allow the Maine Mo-
tor Coaches. Inc. to operate over IL
different routes in this state has been
upheld by the Supreme Judicial
Court of Maine through a rescript
drawn by Chief Justice Scott Wilson
and made public on Wednesday. In
an attempt to go over the heads of
the Public Utilities Commission the
bus line asked the Supreme Court
for writ Of mandamus to compel
the Commission to issue the neces-
sary certificates of operation, and
this writ was refused. This decision
was certified to the Chief Justice
and in the rescript he overrules the
exceptions of the petitioner,
The Penobscot county rescript is
as follows:
On exceptions to refusal to issue a
writ Of mandamus to compel the
Public Utilities Commission to issue
the certificate provided for in Sec
siVAi VI ShuptCA %14s uUllC Laws
1928, it is held:
That, unless it appears that the de-
cree Of the Justice denying the writ
was based on some erroneous ruling
of law or there Was an abuse of ju-
dicial discretion, exceptions will not
lie.
In view Of the we'll recognized con-
troll over highways by the state and
the possible menace to public safety
and the destruction of the highways
by the operation over them Of heavy
high powered motor buses, the au-
thority of the legislature to prohibit
such operation can not be question:
ed.
In view of the history of this class
of legislation and its obvious pur-
pose, the certificate permitting such
operation can not be viewed as In
registration and its issuance a mere
ministerial act. If such har been the
intention of the legislature, 1t is in
conceivable that the statute author
izing it's issue could have been couch
ed in the terms in which we find It.
If more was intended, then a large
measure of discretion must be in
volved In the issuance OF such GER
tificates.
No abuse of discretion appearing
either on the part of the Public Util-
tiles Commission in refusing to issue
a certificate or of the Court below in
refusing to issue the peremptory writ
of mandarnus, or any erroneous rul-
ing of law on which the Courts de-
cree was based, the exceptions must
be overruIed.

All Alcohol Permits
To Be Revoked
New Treasury Order

washington, Nov. 1S.-(AP)-Iak-
ing one of the most drastic steps
since the reorgS nization of federal
prohibition enforcement began last
April. the treasury today revoked
effective December 81, every out
standing alcohol permit issued under
the federal prohibition law, stimuli
taneously, a sweeping Investigation
was begun to determine whether any
or all of the permits should be re-
newed.
AS an immediate result Of these de-
cisions, numerous court proceedings
by permit holders, were indicated.
Announcement of the revocation
order quickly spread among lawyers
here who have devoted attention to
prohibition questions and some OF
them are understood to have advised
their Interested clients that injunc-
tion proceedings should be instituted
Immediately to compel its withdraw
al.
The revocation decision was sign
ed by Secretary Mellon and c. Il.
Nash. acting commissioner of intern
al revenue. Unless court proceedings
cause it's reversal its effect will be
to subject every holder of a permit
desiring a new one to annual inves-
tigation by federal agents to deter
mine whether there have been viola
lions Of law Which would preclude a
reissue of the permit.
