A Stalwart Injant 



The seedling cherry here shown, putting Jorth its solid 



clusters of blossoms while only knee-high, illustrates two or three 



of the characteristic qualities of the Burbank orchard fruits notable the 



qualities of early and prolific bearing. Mr. Burbank constantly 



selects with these qualities in mind, with the result that his 



orchard trees generally bear fruit at afar earlier age 



than ordinary ones. This precocious 



little sapling is a typical plant in 



Mr. Bur bank's gardens.
