Kessinger Publishing

Luther Burbank was past sixty before he could find the time he desired for the making of exact records of his innumerable and unique experiments with plants; he was seventy before the itch that had always been on him to express on paper his thoughts, reactions, observations, and philosophies could be even in slight measure gratified. Unquestionably if he had lived he would have poured forth his naturalist's soul, and the last years would have been productive of exhilarating, pungent, and enlightening essays and books that would have greatly enriched our literature of through and comment. What is saved of all the treasure he had stored happens to be this volume.

Vol. VI of a twelve Volume set In this volume Mr. Burbank tells how he produced the thornless blackberry, the white blackberry, the new thornless raspberry, and all of the other berry transformations which excite endless wonder in the minds of the uninitiated -- yet which were produced by methods so simple, once understood, that they seem no more wonderful, after all, than their conventional cousins. Also, in this volume, there are indications, and suggestions, wherever possible, of other improvements which are needed. And an outline of the ways in which there is likelihood that they may be brought about -- with always a view to the practical betterment of existing berry patches. Some of the chapters are: Designing a Strawberry to Bear the Year Around, A Dozen of Other Delightful Berries, Some Inedible Fruits Which May Be Transformed and many more
