Wherever “ the round zvorld over " men know flowers and fruits, know of 
their origin, their development and their creation, there is Luther Burbank 
recognized as a man of wondrous pozver. He has done things. Like that soldier 
hero, zvho at the outbreak of the Spanish zvar, carried this Nation's message to 
Garcia, Mr. Burbank, without flourish of trumpets, without asking for fame, has 
been quietly at work for years at his home farm near Santa Rosa, California, 
developing and making fruits and dozvcrs. Patiently, tenderly, enthusiastically, 
he has zvorkcd with such results that all men zvho knozv them give him the highest 
honor and praise .— Charles Sedgwick Aiken, Editor Sunset Magazine.
