Editorial Comment
A Great and Kindly Man
Chicago Journal of Commerce)


Luther Burbank, now critically i'll in his home at
Santa Rosa, Calf, is man whom all the world
knows to be great. On this point there is no voice
of dissent. His greatness was demonstrated long
time ago; during most of his lifetime the fact has
been accepted. In this and in some other respects,
he resembles Thomas A. Edison. These two men
have become historical figures in their own lifetime.
At the core of Burbank's greatness, Of course, is
genius for the work he has undertaken. His love
for plants is part of this genius. His tremendous
industry has given his genius opportunity to DEM
onstrate it's powers. Sevcnty-seven years old now,
he look back fftythree years to the time CT his
first famous orgnation, the Burbank potato. Since
that time he has developed many hundreds Of new
varieties of trees. grains, grass, fruits, vegetables,
flowers. and nuts His work has had vast and inn
mediate practical value. In addition it has afforded
biologists unprecedented opportunity for the
study CT the development of life-forms.
Mr. Burbank's sympathes have not gone out to
plants alone His kindly nature delights in man.
kind. His smile is benediction. The glow in his
eyes is an outer sign of his inner zest for life.
Let us hope he will live
