Blossom of the White Elder 



In recent years Mr. Burbank has paid a great deal of at- 

 tention to the improvement of the elderberry. The elder is a 

 familiar small tree growing wild in many regions of the United 

 States, and its berries are sometimes used for making pies, 

 but are hardly considered a marketable product. 

 Mr. Burbank has shown that the fruit has 

 possibilities of development.
