ninety-five per cent nitrate, having fifteen 

 and one-half per cent of nitrogen. Dur- 

 ing the last ten years there has been a 

 large increase in the production and con- 

 sumption of nitrate of soda. According 

 to published estimates the consumption 

 was 1,066,220 tons in 1896, 1,338,890 tons 

 in 1900, and 1,543,120 tons in 1905. 

 Since 1896 there has been a steady appre-

A BURBANK STORY. 



Many things recently have been cred- 

 ited to Luther Burbank; "if you don't 

 want to stand for it yourself, lay it to 

 Burbank; he won't deny it." Here is 

 the latest, from an exchange: 



Luther Burbank, the plant wizard, 

 showed last month to the students of 

 Stanford university an apple that was 

 sweet on one side and sour on the other. 



''This apple shows us," Mr. Burbank 

 said, "how different treatments will 

 have different effects. It shows how en- 

 vironment causes the most radical 

 changes. ' ' 



He smiled. 



"As in apples, so in men," he said. 

 "There used to live in Santa Eosa a 

 good, kind man, but unfortunately he 

 married a shrewish wife and the woman 

 changed his nature. 



"One morning after his wife had 

 called him a good-for-nothing loafer and 

 snatched his breakfast away he started 

 off, hungry and sore, for work. 



"A sour-looking woman entered the 

 car he was on. She got into a violent 

 dispute with the conductor over her 

 change. Finally, red with rage, she 

 looked about her and said: 



" 'Is there a gentleman in this car 

 who will stand by and 'see a lady in- 

 sulted?' 



"The hungry man whose nature had 

 been spoiled rose eagerly. 



" 'Yes, madam,' he said, 'I will.' "
