Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Luther Burbank, Vol. 8: His Methods and Discoveries and Their Practical Application
Corn, Wheat, Oats, Barley and Hay are crops which receive attention in this volume, as well as the textile plants and those which yield useful substances to commerce and chemistry; also the complete story of the Cactus, which has often been hinted at, but never before told, is given here. All of the work described in this volume is new, and the public, hitherto, has known but little of Mr. Burbank's efforts along these lines.
