BURBANK AND EDISON

Luther Burbank, who died yesterday morning,
occupied place in this country similar to that of
few other men, perhaps more nearly like that of
Thomas A. Edison. One, the plant wizard, the
other the electrical wizard Both by their achieve
ments have been brought into closer touch with a
very large number of people than any other
American with the exception of Henry Ford.
The career of MIR. Burbank antedates, but not
by much, that of Mr.. Edison. The latter's was
not familiar name until the late seventies in
connection with the development of the incandes-
cent light and experiments with the telephone and
the phonograph. A few years before that the
Burbank potato had begun displacing the old
peach blow" the "Meshannic," the later early
Rose" and other varieties which had persisted to
that time and were giving signs of running
out"
The wizardry of both Burbank and Edison was
of later date, though perhaps nothing of the
great work of the latter seemed to the public as
wonderful as what we now perceive were the
crude results of his early experiments.
What Burbank accomplished later-the great
number of new varieties of plants he developed
came to be looked upon as matters of course.
1t is hard to say which of these two great men
has been of the greater service to mankind. The
benefactions of each are incaculabe. Undoubt-
edly the discoveries made by Edison would have
been made later by other Investigators for already
that field had been invaded. But Burbank en-
tered field practically alone, and though he has
had followers he has had no competitors.
Luther Burbank was distinguished for his low
able characteristics, as one who devotes himself
to plants is apt to be kindly assistant of nature
in Showering her blessings upon men.-Arizona

THE GOOD LOSER

1t is said that an Indian never
cracks a smile at things which amuse
"palefaces" but when misfortune be-
falls he laughs. The Indians way to-
ward the lighter side may not be the
better but in refusing to be cast
down by misfortune he sets a COM
mendable example.
1t may not be necessary to laugh
about it. 1t may be no laughing mat
ter, but to meet reyerses standing up
with face to them is the wiser way.
Losing money is the excuse for some
to go out and kill themselves. Defeat
in an undertaking ON which one has
set ones heart is not pleasant, but
there is something worse than losing
money or meeting defeat. To lose
courage to face conditions is worse.
Some are spoken of as good losers.
That does not mean that they enjoy
losing. Nobody does, but in life there
are losses and if they come they test
the characters genuineness.
The Indian may not be a perfect

THE BOY-LIKE FIGURE
(Arizona Republican,

| Word was sent out through the
medium of the Associated Press the
other day, warning to girls who
starve themselves to attain the "boy-
like" figure which has been so much
in vogue fora short time, that if pos
terity has to depend upon them, it
would be in bad way; that their
progeny would be spindling, if there
should be any survival. This is a
wasted warning; these boy-like girls
are not overburdened with a sense Of
obligation to posterity.
Another warning comes from Dir.
l.. f. Barker, emeritus professor of
medicine at Johns Hopkins university,
that will perhaps carry more direct
appeal. 1t is time for the plump girl
to take heart. The thin girl has been
fashionable for some time, but her
inordinate desire to be a willowy
shadow may be her undoing. Accord
| ing to Dr. Barker, the desire of the
modern girl to be extremely and fash
ionably thin, regardless of conse-
quences, is threatening her health and
/ happiness. And, of course, without
health and happiness, she won't have
thing on the fat girl.
Under-nourishment, which comes
with the desire to grow thin, may de-
| velop tuberculosis, or at best a Terv-
Gus breakdown, according to DR.. Bar
ker, who says:
'sThe ideal of the exaggerated thin
figure, dictated by the fashion of the
moment, is sure to pass, but it may
not go, | am afraid, until it has
been the cause of many tragedies.
"The trouble with young women to-
day is that their ideal of what is
proper weight is all wrong. They have
developed an obsession against being
! fat. They say to doctors: / would
rather die than get fat Some OK
them starve themselves to the point
of almost literally carrying this out.
Often already too thin, they diet to
grow thinner. But unseientifie diet
ing they fail to eat balanced ration,
and thus predispose themselves to
food deficiency diseases. They smoke
constantly, especially during meals, to
take away the normal appetite they
have, and by too many cigarettes in
crease their nervousness.
'These girls, the greater number
Of them between 16 and 20 years of
age, but many of the same mind be-
| tween 20 and 80, are trying to face
pace Of life that makes far greater
demands on them than it did on their
mothers and grandmothers, with thin,
scrawny bodies that do not hold the
needed reserve of strength. What is
the result? Many of these young
women are mourning wrecked health
that not only forbids their continuing
public activities but that interferes
seriously with their eventually full
filling the responsibilities of marriage
and motherhood"

SMELLING THE WOODS
(Graham Guardian)


The Prescott Courier continues to
"shell the woods" in search of cam
didate for governor on the democratic
ticket in the approaching primaries.
During the winter the editor wrote a
series of editorials suggesting. some
of the old timers of the state for gov
ernor Among those suggested were
Morris Goldwater of Prescott and
Major Geo. H. Kelly, present state
historian. w. P. Stuart, editor of the
Courier, was in Phoenix a few days
ago and on his return home wrote a
flattering editorial boosting the Hon.
E. E. Ellinwood, the prominent attor-
ney of Phoenix, for governor. Of
course this editorial has attracted at
tention because of the wide acquaint-
ance Of Mr.. Ellinwood, but just what
Mr.. Ellinwood may think of abandon
ing his law and banking business to
take up the trials which would beset
him as a candidate for governor is not
known.

MORE ARIZONA FISH"
(Kingman Miner)

George A. Shea has called the at
tention of Senator Cameron to the
possibilities of a dam at Trout creek
and as result of this Senator
Cameron has promised to introduce
a bill into the United States senate
as soon as sufficient data is obtained.
Judge Shea is now securing this data
and forwarding it to the, senator.
Senator Cameron states that he has
been assured the support Of other
senators in getting an appropriation
through, presumably this session.
The Trout creek waters, by proper
conservation, can be made to irrigate
10000 acres and this amount of land
is available, we are told.
Judge L. v. Root has also been
working ON this project for several
months from another angle, and has
made considerable headway toward
its realization.

It would seem that Harry Nash, the murderer
of Sehwab, just naturally escaped from the state
penitentiary because he felt he had stuck around
there long enough. The prison authorities do not
seem to take any interest in the matter, probably
did not like him anyhow.
