IDEAL FLOWER FOR
AMERICA CLAIMED
Marigold, Transformed, is
-: ;Winning Fame
Snn Francisco tui After 46 years
of searching and hybridizing of
flowers, David Burpee, cousin of the
late Luther Burbank, believes he has
nt last perfected the "ideal American
flower.
Burpee, whoso flower ranch is In
Santa Barbara county, conies from a
long line of .flower experts. Besides
his relationship to the late Luther
Uurhank, his fother also was a dis
tinguished hybridist.
"I ylas only 15," he said, "when my
father, offered me a prize of $1,000
if 1 Would develop a yellow sweet
pea. . I never earned that $1,000, but
my work along that line started me
in my search for a flower that would
curvrve the heat and cold of all parts
of the United States and have at the
same time sufficient beauty to make
it the country's ideal flower.1'
It jtas 30 years later, he said, that
he finally found it.
"Ie-was the marigold, but it toak
years and years of further search and
hybridizing to perfect it to what 1
wanted. In the first place it had
many serious disadvantages, the most
serious of which was its odor. This,
I discovered, came from little . oil
sacks on the under side of the
leaves,"
Burpee then' began a worldwide
search for a marigold that did not
have "this disagreeable scent. This
was ejrried on for several years, and
finnlry abandoned.
"Within a month after I quit my
search," Burpee said, ' I received a
lettes from a missionary in China
whohad discovered a odorless
marigold. X had him rush me some
seedsand planted them at once on
my California ranch."
The first flower was small and
' was sterile. But there was no odor.
"lit the next one, however, a muta
tion occurred and produced a flower
with female reproductive parts, but
no male parts, he said.
"I then conceived the idea of cross
ing the French marigold a small red
flower with male reproductive parts
only-W-with. the large African marr
gold,which was yellow.
"This was done by planting a five
acre field in alternate rows of French
and African marigolds and then put
ting COO.OOO bees in the field."
The result, Burpee said, is a beau
tiful Jed and gold hybrid. They have
beetCflown across the Atlantic to see
if they would stand the change of
; temperatures and climate with com
: pletesuccess, and he is confident that
. he now has the ideal flower that
will thrive in all parts of the United
: Slate.

Sudan Grass Gains
! Popularity in West
' Whenever Oregon has bad winter
and spring growing conditions so that
normal: forage crops are seriously
. damaged, there is an increase in the
planting of sudan grass, which ,is
planted late and hence can be used
for an emergency crop. Of late years,
however, the use of sudan grass and
the related millets and sorghums has
attained somewhat-more than an
emergency status.
While these crops are yet of rela-
. tively minor importance, enough in
terest has been shown in them so
that the agricultural experiment sta
tion aH Oregon State college has just
issued Station Bulletin No. 361 entitled-"Sudan
Grass, Millets and
Sorghums in Oregon." In this bul
letin H. A. Schoth and H. H. Ramp
ton, federal agronomists stationed at
the college, summarize a 'considerable
amount of information which has
been obtained through growing these
crops experimentally in various parts
of the state. The authors estimate
that in 1936 approximately 2,000 acres
of sudan grass were grown m Ore
gon, which amount was doubled in
1937. i Some increase in production is
warranted, they believe, particularly
lor late summer pasture.
