THE LUTHER BURBANK SOCIETY 



of a number of monographs covering as broadly as 

 possible within the space at hand, the whole sub- 

 ject of heredity and environment as applied not 

 only to the production of better races but to the 

 production of better individuals. 



In all some two million pieces of educational 

 printed matter of one kind and another have been 

 distributed. 



That this is but the beginning, however, may be 

 seen from the comprehensive plans already laid 

 out which include the following : 



First. The preparation of a series of even more 

 intensive monographs on the improvement of the 

 human plant, with specific illustrations from many 

 sources, and with the definite applications brought 

 home as closely as possible to the individual 

 reader. 



Second. The preparation of a series of popular 

 monographs on the application of mental forces to 

 the improvement of individual human life — ^phys- 

 ical and moral — from facts which have come as a 

 sidelight to Mr. Burbank's work. 



Third. The preparation of a series of popular 

 monographs on specific farm methods, showing 

 the most profitable plants and crops, differentiated 

 by climates and localities, with a view to getting 

 the average agriculturist out of his rut and forging 

 forward on a better plane.
