BURBANK WORK TO BE GIVEN THE WORLD
METHODS OF AGRICULTURAL WIZARD SOON TO BE EXPLAINED TO THE PUBLIC
SOCIETY FORMED FOR PURPOSE OF DISSEMINATING KNOWLEDGE CONCERNING THEM
"I have heard of Burbank, just as I have heard of Edison—but what has he done that is of practical and lasting value?" asked a man who was discussing Luther Burbank's work.
Out of the results of 40 years of daily achievement, it is hard to pick a single illustration that will answer the question: "What has he done?"
But there is for example, the common potato. Thirty-five years ago potatoes were round, red-skinned and small.
The potatoes of today are long, white-skinned and large.
It would be difficult, now, to find specimens of those little, round, red-skinned potatoes of olden days, for the Burbank potato has become practically universal—it no longer pays to raise the other kind.
The Burbank cactus has shown that it will produce as high as two thousand tons of food per acre—or, in money, it can produce $1,200 worth of denatured alcohol per acre as against $35 from an acre of Indian corn.
If, merely! improving the common potato, Burbank has created an actual wealth equal to that of Standard Oil, what estimate can be made of the value of this new Burbank food cactus, with three billion acres of unproductive land to plant it to?
In the size of type in which this article is set, it would take more than 22 pages merely to catalogue the plant experiments and improvements which Luther Burbank has made in the past 40 years.
Not to describe them—but merely to give their names in one-line headings.
There could be mentioned the chestnut seedling, bearing a crop of nuts after six months' growth from seed—as against 10 to 15 years of an ordinary tree.
Or the evolution of the prune resulting in increasing the crop of one state from 65 to 200 million pounds, and enabling the United States to sell 50 million pounds a year to foreign countries instead of buying 35 million pounds from them.
Or the Burbank tomato, asparagus, squash, each as wonderful in its way as the Burbank potato was 35 years ago.
Or the crimson winter rhubarb, called the "mortgage lifter" by its growers, ready fully six months earlier than any other rhubarb, and of a flavor and texture that makes it yield a thousand dollars but specific, detailing for making an immediate output of the farm.
And this detailed part exactly what Luther Burbank been preparing during this period.
Now, in order that Luther Burbank may help hands of those who make Luther Burbank Society tered by the State of California; William S. Teal California; R. A. Crouse the Bulletin, San Francisco Fortmann, president Association; Charles dent Postum Cereal Company Murphy, president Association; C. W. manager San Francisco G. Cowdery, Peoples Company, Chicago; bury, dean University P. Overton, president Santa Rosa; Chaimp House of Representatives; regent Universities member Carnegie Pe W. S.

But there is for example, the common potato. Thirty-five years ago potatoes were round, red-skinned and small.
The potatoes of today are long, white-skinned and large.
It would be difficult, now, to find specimens of those little, round, red-skinned potatoes of olden days, for the Burbank potato has become practically universal—it no longer pays to raise the other kind.
Luther Burbank did three things to the potato:
He increased its size.
He increased the number that grow in a hill.
And, third, he improved the quality and flavor.
The United States Department of Agriculture at Washington, in one of its bulletins, has said that the Burbank potato is adding seventeen million dollars a year to the agricultural income of the country.
On this basis, and remembering that Burbank products are not limited to America, but are, in fact, better known abroad than at home, it is easy to compute that the Burbank potato in the 35 years since its discovery, has added to farm incomes a grand total in the neighborhood of six hundred million dollars.
In other words, Luther Burbank, with this one single plant improvement, has given the farmers of the world an added income which compares favorable with the whole estimated earnings of the Standard Oil Company since its inception.
And the casual inquirer, who had eaten Burbank potatoes all his life and who had never seen, tasted or even heard of any other potato, asked what Burbank had done that was practical!
Or, to pick at random another example:
America's most precious tree, the Walnut tree, is practically extinct—at least as a source of marketable lumber.
The walnut tree, as nature planned it, is slow to grow.
In 35 years it usually reaches a height of 20 feet and a circumference of 18 inches.
Burbank has produced a walnut tree—equal, if not superior in the quality of the lumber—which, in only 17 years, has attained a height of 80 feet (as against 20 feet in twice that long) and a circumference of 72 inches (as against 18 inches in twice that long).
At the cost of $2 per tree for planting, this new walnut can yield in 12 years a lumber value of three thousand dollars per acre.
Or, to put it another way: in these abling the United States to sell 60 million pounds a year to foreign countries instead of buying 35 million pounds from them.
Or the Burbank tomato, asparagus, squash, each as wonderful in its way as the Burbank potato was 35 years ago.
Or the crimson winter rhubarb, called the "mortgage lifter" by its growers, ready fully six months earlier than any other rhubarb, and of a flavor and texture that makes it yield a thousand dollars an acre the first year after planting—with an always eager market.
Or the Burbank cherry, or the Burbank white blackberry, or the Burbank thornless blackberry, or the Burbank forage grasses, hays, peas, beans, oats, rye, all of which have just as practical a money-meaning as the Burbank potato or the Burbank cactus have.
"And my ideas of Burbank," said the casual inquirer "have always been associated with such things as his Shasta Daisy—his novelties—beautiful, interesting, and valuable, but offering from a money standpoint nothing practical."
Compared with the Burbank potato, the beautiful Burbank Rose seems almost a frivolity.
Yet one florist on Long Island, New York, says that he has sold from the new varieties which he has produced according to Burbank's advice on hybridizing, over 100 thousand dollars' worth of plants and flowers. (N. Y. Sun, September 17, 1911.)
Here is Luther Burbank—his work and methods practically a secret.
Here is a world impatiently waiting to be informed.
Here is the work of 40 years ready for widespread dissemination.
The Carnegie Institution at Washington, recognizing the universal value of Luther Burbank's records, made an appropriation of one hundred thousand dollars in 1905 for the purpose of compiling them for scientific purposes exclusively.
But the scientific part of Mr. Burbank's work important and interesting as it is, is not what the farmer needs.
What the farmer needs is practical results—and definite instructions on how to apply them.
It is the difference between mathematics and accounting—between the patent office drawings of an invention and working blueprints for manufacturing—between theory and practice.
What the Carnegie Institution wanted would have delayed the more practical achievement of getting farmers abbling the United States to sell 60 million pounds a year to foreign countries instead of buying 35 million pounds from them.

Burbank has produced a walnut tree—equal, if not superior in the quality of the lumber—which, in only 17 years, has attained a height of 80 feet (as against 20 feet in twice that long) and a circumference of 72 inches (as against 18 inches in twice that long).
At the cost of $2 per tree for planting, this new walnut can yield in 12 years a lumber value of three thousand dollars per acre.
Or, to put it another way: in these days when forest conservation is an acute issue, Luther Burbank has given us a short-cut to reforestation—has enabled us to make good a lumber shortage, due to our own wanton recklessness—and to do all of this, not a generation from now, but in the mere span of a dozen years.
Yet the question is asked: "What has he done that is practical!"
There are three billion acres of desert in the world.
Barren, arid desert on which the highest form of vegetable life is the worthless, spiny cactus.
It took the imagination of a Burbank to conceive a way to transform these three billion acres into productivity.
He did it not by finding new plants which would thrive on desert soil and under desert conditions.
He did it by making the common cactus which already grows there produce a rich, juicy fruit—and then by making the cactus thornless, he added a great forage crop (live stock food) after the fruit is picked.
He so transformed the cactus that it grows thornless and covers itself with beautiful, highly colored, pear-shared fruit—as juicy as a ripe watermelon, with a flavor between that and the Bartlett pear—grows them on its native desert.
Under favorable conditions, corn produces on the basis of about one ton and a half of food per acre.
Alfalfa, that wonder crop, itself, produces as high as five tons of food per acre.
What the farmer needs is practical results—and definite instructions on how to apply them.
It is the difference between mathematics and accounting—between the patent office drawings of an invention and working blue-prints for manufacturing—between theory and practice.
What the Carnegie Institution wanted would have delayed the more practical achievement of getting farmers everywhere using the Burbank methods. So Luther Burbank independent of the Carnegie institution decided to tabulate, analyze and classify and explain the copious notes which he has always taken of all his experiments in the 40 years of his work.
To do this, not in a way to interest the scientists, for the Shasta Daisy is of as much interest to the scientists as the Burbank potato—but to do it in a way that would make the Burbank methods clearly understandable by any average farmer who can read simple English.
There is already too much of the theory of better farming—too little of the practice.
Only the smallest percentage of the work of the Department of Agriculture and agricultural colleges in various states is ever put into actual operation.
At these fountain heads of farming information it is possible to learn the ingredients that a soil for a given purpose should possess—but there are no facilities for actually examining the soils that are sent in by farmers nor are farmers told how their soils may be analyzed or definitely improved.
There is value in this scientific work, unquestionably—but it reaches only the small number of attending students, not the millions of farmers.
And the farm problem today is an acute problem calling for an immediate answer.
It needs not theory, but working plans—not lectures or essays or histories to improve the mind of the far-

And this detailed specific help is in part exactly what Luther Burbank has been preparing during these years.
Now, in order that the life work of Luther Burbank may be placed in the hands of those who most need it, The Luther Burbank Society has been chartered by the State of California.
Not organized for profit, but for the purpose of aiding in spreading the Burbank methods to the four corners of the globe, so that the whole world may profit, this society numbers among its members such men and women as:
Phoebe A. Hearst, Pleasanton, California; William S. Tevis, Bakersfield, California; R. A. Crothers, publisher the Bulletin, San Francisco; Henry F. Fortmann, president Alaska Packers' Association; Charles W. Post., president Postum Cereal Company; Dr. J. B. Murphy, president American Medical Association; C. W.

The good which this society can do is unlimited.
It can help to give the world a thousand Luther Burbanks instead of one. It can perpetuate and multiply Luther Burbank's methods and discoveries instead of allowing them to die with him.
It can help to give to the world better foods at lower prices—it can convert arid deserts into blooming fruit-bearing, forage-producing fields.
It can enable every man or woman who grows things from the soil—either for pleasure or for profit—to improve his yield and to know the joy of creating new and better forms of plant-life.
To quote from Mr. Burbank's own manuscript, which is now rapidly nearing its final re-reading:
"New creations in plant-life will not only produce a renewed interest in agricultural and horticultural matters, and in all outdoor life, but they will make it possible to produce far greater results with the same amount of labor and capital. A life in the open air, among plants, near to Nature's heart, gives one health and self-respect, as well as physical endurance and mental integrity—for the highest intellectual advancement can be combined with the occupations of the soil."
"The forthcoming writings are for the people, not for the scientific investigator, and I hope to explain my methods in a plain, matter-of-fact way which will be understood by everybody, and especially by the young, in whom I now see a greater interest in nature studies and farm-life than ever before."

A communication received from Attorney Keech enclosing a copy of the reply he had sent to Mr. L. B. Jones of the Santa Fe Co., was placed on file.
The application of K. Shiotani for a pipe line through his property was referred to the ditch committee.
Applications on file for transfer of stock were on motion granted.
The secretary reported that all the oil companies, with the exception of the McAnders, had not signed and returned the agreement for the use of water for drilling purposes. The secretary was instructed to notify the companies in question that unless all agreements were on file in the office by October 25, 1912, the water would be shut off.
The secretary was also instructed to change the contract with the Petroleum company so that it would read 10 cents per 1,000 gallons in place of 20 cents per 1,000 gallons.

MILLIONS IN SAND AND GRAVEL
One of the important industries in the United States of which comparatively little is written is the production of sand and gravel. In 1911 the production of sand and gravel amounted to 86,846,959 short tons, valued at $21,158,583. The production of sand of all kinds was 40,253,977 tons, valued at $14,438,500, and that of gravel was 26,-592,982 tons, valued at $6,720,083. The production of glass sand was valued at $1,547,733, an increase over the figures for 1910; the sand used for building in 1911 was valued at $7,719,286, a slight decrease as compared with 1910. This was accounted for by less activity in 1911 in the building trades, including that of concrete construction. The production of molding sand in 1911 was valued at $2,132,469, a marked decrease as compared with 1910. The production of all other sands in 1911, such as sand for grinding and polishing, fire sand, engine sand, and filtration sand, was valued at $3,043,012, an increase of over a million dollars in value as compared with 1910.

TIME IS THE TEST
The test of time is what tells the tale. The public soon finds out when misrepresentations are made, and merit alone will stand the test of time.
Anaheim people appreciate merit, and many months ago local citizens publicly endorsed Doan's Kidney Pills; they do so still. Would a citizen make the statement which follows unless convinced that the article was just as represented? A cure that lasts is the kind that every sufferer from kidney illis is looking for.
Mrs. E. Kraatz, S. Claudina St., Anaheim, Cal., says: "In May, 1907, I publicly recommended Doan's Kidney Pills in return for the benefit my son received from their use. For a number of years he was troubled by a weak back and other symptoms of disordered kidneys. Doan's Kidney Pills, procured at Mullinix' Drug Store, removed his trouble and made him feel better in every way. The fact that over two years have since passed without a return attack of kidney complaint, increases my faith in Doan's Kidney Pills."
