Harwood) One summer evening, some years waa walking ago, a Hr.

A year later, as, he vetU-naspassed beside the bed of dcvrlni-men- t, now lomewhat advanced In he was again attracted by the scent, a delicate hint of the odor of the i :! ; "i t trailing arbutus. With his characteristic patience he went over the plants one by one until, at last, he found the one tliar hail the elusive odor, it was at once isolated, and its seeds warn saved sud planted with great care. Succeeding seta of seed were plutitoil year by year, and year by year tbit plants wera challenged for any increase in fragrance Such as persisted in the odor were in turn chosen for future testing, and the others discarded. Thw ecenl became more and more pronoun ctyl. continuing in it likeness to the arbutus, and becoming. at last, greatly intensified. Today. the bloom itself having much improved, the fragrance, still identical with that of the arbutua and double Us strength, has been establishta-e- ed. t It was so wonderful a thing that I asked Mr. Burbank if It would not be possible to breed flowers for tbr manufacture of perfumery, Intensifying old odors so ss to remler the flowers richer la scent, and creating new odors by combi nations of various plants, ss well as placing fragrance In flower now odorless. He answered promptly that U waa an easy matter and perfectly feasible. Glveu a flower with a woek but desirable fragrance, it waa only a question of pains, thought, time, and careful selection to heighten its odor and at ? ? a ! t make it commercially valuable for the manufacture of perfume. The Intensification of the perfume la shown in tha case of the verbena; the complete changing of the odor, in the dahlia, n flower with an offensive odor, but now completely changed by Mr. Burbank until it has the rich fragrance of the magnolia blossom. This led me to speak of another strange possibility In floral lita: 1 bad heard that h had been on the way to blue roar. A blue rower1 he repealed. "Why, certainly. Why not? Tou can hqvo nay color yon wish. I have not had time to make a blue rose, but I have aem enough la tha development of the coloring of thle flower to know that it. it n very simple matter. If 1 ever get tha time I may do it; but when ao many things of more value press In on one, how can he stop to make it? 1 have, however, made a blue poppy, which you would perhape consider quite aa wonderful." But let no one conclude that all this production of beautiful forma of life la carried on without disappointments. Tha fact that no new creation can he given to the world until it has proved ita right to llvo-u- ntl! it has shown, toot that It la not going back to so in former condition of inefflrlenry adds enormously to the earn and labor. One day, after years of experimentation, n beautiful new flower waa bluish-whit- e produce- dtiny, bloeaom upon a brilliant green vine. It was of rare beauty, either for lawn decoration or for uas with other flowers in bouquets, and naliko anything in existence. But ono morning n workman discovered that. In the night, err- - plant had died. There waa no w. '.v solution to tha mystery. The flow could never ho recovered, because lilt conditions under which It had been created would never coma again. The loss waa a aevera one from the commerrial point ef view of tho adornment of the world. It waa a littlo tragedy la plant life. Borne particularly beautiful gladioli were under development. In order to fnoi the thievish gophers, a row of ordinary gladioli waa planted around the more precious ones, in the hope that the gophera would be satisfied. with the bulbs of the ones first reached. But not for a moment were gophera trained In the atmosphere of such a place to bo put off with any common, everyday food: they went etralght for the bulbe of the rare plants, ate them up, and left the atalhs standing, the disaster being discovered only when they withered in death. But the work of producing the new gladioli was not permanently hampered, and now Mr. Burbank has taught Nature a new and beautiful lesson -how to grow her gladioli ao that they will bkwaom around the entire stem, and not on ono side in the style she had been following. It was not the work of a day. hut of years of the most cs refill training, this teaching a plant to change ita mod of life. To make s flne n flower double Its blossoms snd distribute them on nil sides of the etera and adds a new and beautiful note to the harmony of nature. An Amerlran florist secured the stork upon which these gladioli went fntindtd, establishing the new flower throughout the world. For many years Mr. Burbank worked upon the daisy, taking the tiny the pest of eastern farmers, as a Imsia of his experiments, and developing It until it Is now a splendid blossom from five to kaven inches in diameter, with wonder-lu- l keeping qualltl.-- after cutting. In fhe same wav he has greatly increased the geranium in site, and at the same time has made it far more brilliant in field-dais- color. Mr. Aurhank tmee called my sikh'IkI attention to a little case of earth containing a few scattering pianta Just appearing above tha ground, a new generation of a beautiful hybrid larkspur upon whlrh he had been at work for several years. It is much larger than hny other, and has a combination of colors never before seen In the From the new plants In the rasa some were to be selected for further tests ss soon ss they were large y enough. The day before, a whot of little birds suddenly swooped down upon the rssa, and. bv the time a workman had discovered them, they lark-Spu- r. rol-tm- bad destroyed all the plants save a fw scattering ones here and there. In the opinion of Mr. Burbank, they were worth their weight in diamonds, big In a day the birds had well-nigundone the work of years. In whatever direction Mr. Burbank has tented hla attention, the flowers have responded with Inrrsased grace, slw. and fragrance, more 1wutlful colors, and greater virility. He has made the little amaryllis grow on and In acarlst splendor until it u full h ten inches across: he has bred more than tea thousand hybrid lilies, aotim of tbeni assuming strangely beautiful forma; he has brought a calls up to 'nearly a foot in diameter, sad bred it down ufitll it waa less than an inch and. half across its perfect bloom, adding at tbv same time fragrance, wliilu soiuv of the callae have taken to themselves peculiar and moat uuiuual shapes: he has takeu the dainty little. the Brodloe terras-trisblue that comes in the early spring in California, a native heauly. and changed ita deep azure to a glisteuing crystal-white; he lias added new touches of beauty to the rose, and has isuglti it Ichsouh lu thrift; he has made the violets blossom in a profusion that they had r hrfnre allow n, and mada the yellow puppy a ruby among flowers. Along with such arts as these, he has conducted huudrads of floral exieri-meut- s in the way id introducing aud from acclimating flower corners of the earth. Much attantlou has been paid to the Improvement of the wild flowers and those tamo ones that aland low in the scale. The sedum. of tha type of plants, once a most orby dinary flower, has been advam-breeding to a point of beauty. It occurred to Mr. Burbank one day that it would be Interest Inq to change the pampas-graswith its dreuratlvo plumes, from white to pink: so, after kuig experimentation and training, tha change waa wrought,' the effect being very striking. Wonderfully ctirloua results sometimes follow the croaslng of plants. While at work upon a strawberry cross, a tiny berry showed a green sprout at one cud. aw tha the grew, Gradually, berry a sprout, developed, until there waa growing out complete slrawlierry-plaii- t of the berry itself. In breeding raspsome reberry and blarkherry-plant- a markable abnormalities of atom and leaf were seen. Oftentimes there will ha aevera! hundreds, or even thousands, of pianta from the same parent stock, no two of the plants bearing similar leaves. The Illustration of an enormous hybrid tolwcro-plan- t is of particular interest, aa It Indlcatea a new line of. work upon which Mr. Burbank has entered. Tolwcco Is to I) produced much thriftier, adapted to colder climates, and finer in flavor than the best tobacco now grows. From Siberia, Australia, India, or the Africa devoted friends, ever on alert, send Mr. Burbank near and strange plant, that he may make them over Into more beautiful and uae-Biforma of life. One day an agent In Japan sent soma plum pita coming from a tree not specially remarkable, but from which he thought Mr. Burbank might develop a higher order. After several years had passed In growing the plum, one of tho trees was chosen for further treatment. It early showed that it had marvelous reproductive powers, and three or four years ago, in a large orchard planted thousfrom ita cuttings, twenty-twand plums were atrlpped from a single tree in order that the tree might have a chance to mature He normal number of plums. The greatest obstacle in tho way of this plum one of the moat famous that Mr. Burbank has produced, end bearing hie name la that it is so marvelously productive. It requires many hired "strippers" each year to go through aa avrrago-siseorchard to atrip the branches of the green plume In order that .the trees may not over-beaThe beech-plua email. Utter wild plum, has been transformed Into a large delicious fruit, the tree bearing so abundantly that the foliage la sometimes almost wholly dlsplared by the fruit. In his researches into plum lire, Mr. Burbank had triad to roinbln a plunt and an almond, to see what the result, would be. Interesting as ll waa from a spectacular point of view, it was not of sufficient Importance to warrant further development: but Hie etudy led to tho consideration of the crossing of two other siteclcs, an apricot and n plum. A common wild American plum, a Japanese plum, and an apricot formed the basis of the experiment, and in course of time that which scientific men had said was an Impossibility the making 4 a new fruit lay before him accomplished. Nothing stranger has ever been done by him. The apricot form and color persist In the outside of the new fruit, but the flesh may bo crimson, yellow, pink or pure white. The pits are sometimes those of the apricot, ami sometimes those of the plum. Because In tin tree Itself there are certain Imperfect ions not yet overcome, the fruit, has not been given to th world, other work upon it being still tinder wey. The flavor of the plumrot, which is the name of the combination. Is pronounced by some superior to that of any slmilsr fruit, and absolutely unlike anything ever .before tasted. Btrange facilities or properties are given to some of these piunts upon which Mr. Burbank has worked. One of them has no pit at ail, the pit. after long years of breeding, having been driven out of ll. Another has a delightful fragranre. so powerful that when s single plum is left over night In a room, the whole apartment Is saturated with the perfume the next Hnsa. Mr. morning.

Tb giaft bore no bloom, but the tier was recreated, if took on you will; ita seedling wholly new life Mn.j became hybrids; its vital essence wr.a through the medium of the graft. 'Jr. Burbank determined long ago that, up to a certain point, changes can lie produced in plants at will, when the condition are ripe; white the results of selection are often so simple as to form a mochaukal rule, la other cases it may be whuily impossible to follow theae result a. A million causes may have been at work to start a plant forward on a give course. A mil-lioshades of environment influences may have existed, Ju as a million episode in a man s life, little or great or so small aa forever to remain may have had their influence upon him. It may be that Omnipotence haa rule or laws or forecasts bearing upon what will come to pass In a given million of plants when they enter upon a m-- lif. but Mr. Burbank holds tnat it is manifestly absurd for man to attempt to c.vtahlish such laws. The theory of mutation, or saltation as soma have termed it, which ha recently been announced by Dr. rie Yriea of Amsterdam, and which has been receiving the warm indorsement of leading aclentisr-valso appear to fall by the way in the light of the vast experiments which Mr. Burbauk has been carrying on, and in which he has had opportunity tu these study changes or mutation such as no other ntau haa ever had. lu a recent maga-zlu- e article Dr. de Vries sets forth his theory. He show, from hla experiment with one flower, that new form are actually being produced, and that I bey spring from their parents by a sudden leap, without preparation or Intermediates, and not in one single 8eciniru, but in a number of Individuals. In this way evolution goes on by tars and sudden leap. Another writer put lh theory of mutHtion in these words: The sudden production of new aud siablo varieties from which nature proceeds to select those which are III." Here, aa elsewhere in the broad field of scientific investigation, Mr. Burbank ba not been Idle. He ha had uuder hi eye hundreds of examples of these mutations, fully a wonderful as the few on which Dr. d Vries liases hla theory. But Mr. Burbank, having had an outlook ampler than any other man has ever had, having used as many as a million plants in a teat, and having the widest possible knowledge of these strange forms, arrives, as In the case of Hie Mendelian conclusions. laws, at quite different MutHtion are often found, he holds, fixed forme springing up from a com-ocause, through the action plication of the laws of heredity, which remain constant These Are not necessarily e one-thir- d two-third- e e timle-vlatln- a best-know- n pear-flavo- r 1 e ti-- e mV he Oxford Shoe -- Will be Worn by Both Men and Women This Spring in Taste.

An Illustration vrf these mutations is seen In the case of a flower which is red or blue suddenly producing a white flowthe white and flower, In er, turn, - producing white when grown from flowers, constantseed. Mr. Burbank demonstrates that theae mutations can lie produced at will by any me of the meana which may be naed Id disturb the of Ihe plant Mara than this he claims to have demonstrated that mutation, ao called, la not a period in the life of the plant, an element In the theory of mutation. but that it Is n stale or condition which ia brought about by a variety of other conditions, such as hereditary tendencies, environment, and the like. And even More than this, he claims to have demonstrated. oa before stated, that the condition can he produced nt will. However valuable the experiment! of Dr. de Vries, end no one holds the dlHtlngiil8hed botanist In higher esteem than Mr, Burbank, the latter yet holds that the mutation theory stand without adequate facta to sup-IoIt. . Wallace, in hi Darwinism," brings prominently to the fore and elalmrates Welsmann'a theory or heredity, the germ of which is tha acquired characteristics. of whatever kind, are not transmitted from parent, tu offspring. This Mr. Burbank haa disproved over and over; indeed, has established (he precise opposite that the only char acterlstica that ran be transmitted are the acquired ones. The reason Mr. Burbank crosses a to break up their old pair of plants habit and form of life snd get variation. Bark of these two plants, he knows, are a million tendencies. He see heredity in a hew form. It is, as he defines it, "the sum of ail the effects of all the environments of all past generations on the responsive, or, In other words, a record kept by the vital principle of its struggle onward and upward from simpler forms of life: not vague In any respect, but Indelibly fixed by repetition." In still shorter phrase he puts it: Heredity is the sunt of all pest environment." When ho hu crossed two plants to produce a third, he illustrate what happens In this way: Here is a rlvi-r- , s the f the plant. Here Is the hank, the cm Ironment. The forces, constantly pushing forward, are held in check by the hank, and yet In some measure each arts upon the other, There may !. a rock in Ihe stream which may make a ripple, turning the flow atide for an Instant, hut the river does not stop up Ita way m the sea.

Mr. Burbauk has rendered all this unnecessary by breeding a walnut by with white meat -e- liminating, labor, the tannin in veer of patU-u- t which the skin Incasing the meat, give it its dark color aud bitter taste.

Still more would it. In? the province of a man with the intuition of Mr. Hitrbunk to go deeper and still deeper into the inner life of Nature, the more exhaustively he studied her outward manifestations, it will be well to bear in mind that In his study of tha underlying principles of plant life, Mr. Burbank has not been circum-scrlbein any particular, but haa had virtually an unlimited field of opera- r tions. He has not accepted tha vat Ions of many other people aa a bit sis lor his own conclusions. In 1815 a parish priest in Austria named Mendel, later a teacher In the Realschule at lirun, prepared a paper which set forth the results of aomo of his studies into plant Ufa He announced certain laws In regard to the crossing of plants which have since been generally accepted. These laws have been absolutely overthrown by Mr. Burbank. Mendel's laws, put In tho simplest possible form, held that where two pianta wera crossed, as two peas, two there would be in the offspring prevailing sets of character or charthe acteristics, to which he gave names "dominant" and "recessive. That is to say, certain promlnont characters or characteristics of the parent peas would appear In (he new plant aa the length or stem, color and shape of leaves, shape of seed, arrangement of flowers, ami so on. These would be other dominant characters. Certain characters would appear In lesser number In the new plant, or would disappear altogether. These were the recessive ones. When the new plant thus formed were fertilised they produced offspring In which the two characteristics, the dominant and tho recessive, appeared In an Invariable ratio or proportion, that of three to one. Thus seventy-fiv- e per cent of the characteristics of the new plant its form, color, shape, and so on --would be dominant, and would be recessive. twenty-fiv- e Then Mendel carried the subject that still further, and demonstrated characters bred true, but the that the dominant ones produced pro genuine dominsnl, geny which aim bred true to their own type, cross-breeds the latter, and when self fertilised, giving the old ratio of seventy-fivper cent, dominant characters and twenty-fivper cent recessive. This law would extend, so some of Its adherents maintain, throughout not only all vegetable life, hut throughout all animal life as well, lienee it would be imsslble to determine beforehand precisely what results would follow In the crossing of two plants that they g would follow those certain and law, it would be not only of the vast Interesl in the race from Imof standpoint of evolution, blit mense economic value to all breeder of plants and animals. II should be noted in passing that prominent scientists In Europe have rediscovered" this law, recently notably among them Ir. Hugo de Vries of Amsterdam, one of the leading botanist of the day. In a wide variety of experiments, covering now a period of ihlrty years, averaging a million new plants a year upon which to work, frequently using five hundred thousand plants for a single test, sometime as many as one million, and rejecting them all save perhaps two or three, - having carried on over two thousand five hundred Individual Investigations in an many species.
