A WIDE RANGE OF 

 VARIATION 



Here are camassia bulbs, small, large, 

 and medium; thick, thin and spindle- 

 shaped. Obviously there is plenty of 

 material for selective breeding. Where 

 such variation occurs, still greater 

 variation will be shown in some of the 

 crossbred descendants. Moreover the 

 flavor of one, the form of another, and 

 the size of a third may be combined in 

 a single descendant; and all the good 

 qualities may then be accentuated 

 through selective line breeding. The 

 camassia promises to furnish a very 

 valuable addition to the rather small list 

 of edible bulbs.
