Which Is Said to Have Greater
Commercial Value Than the Old
Ones.

Horticulturists and fruitgrowers are
united in their praise of two new
varieties of peaches and one of
plums produced by Luther Burbank,
the plant wizard. Crosses of the
Crawford and Muir species have re
sulted in u fruit of greater commer
cial value. The Uartlctt plum heed-
ling is a betterment in shape, color
and preponderance of flesh over pit.
Most of. the juiciness and high
color of the Crawford peach has
been transferred by Bui bank to the
smallor and firmer pit of tho Muir.
The color-free pit of the Muir i
also retained. The vigor und abil
ity of the new trees to resist dis
ease is still another recommendation
of the Burbank creation.
E. A. Wickson, dean of the college
of agriculture of tho University of
California, pronounces tho new va
