l That Birmingham is keeping apace with
 the times is evidenced by the many mod
 ern plants. other than those connected
 with the coal and iron industry, that are
 being erected from time to time in the city. They represent varied industries, ard it Is indeed revelation to visit many of them, for one is at once impressed with 1 the up-to-date equipment and the ex- | cellence of the commodities they produce or handle.
 Among the latest additions to the va ried industries of the city is the cold l storage plant, recently completed by the Birmingham Ice and Cold storage com pany, of which the pioneer "iceman," w. J. Rushton, is president and J. Frank Rushton is general manager. It is To- | cated on the corner of Avenue and Twenty-second street, anc is said to be "the last word'' in cold storage plants. It is of interest to learn that while the company had contemplated building the plant for sometime, they put their
 plens into execution at an earlier date by reason of the build now campaign
 started few months ago, when labor was plentiful and building material cheap. There is quite lot of history connected with the progress of the company, from the time MT. Rushton in 1881 built and operated an ice plant n Birmingham with
 capacity of three tons daily to his pres ent activities with ice plants of immense capacity located all over the Birmingham district. but as kipling would say, that

 The pianologue and singing act has been nearly done to death but Dick

 with the new plant.
 Most Approved Design 1 To meet the ever increasing demand for
 cold storage facilities the Birmingham Ice | company decided to enter more largely
 into this line, and at the above location
 has built and completed cold storage plant of the most approved and modern design and construction. The building is
 6Sx120 feet, having a basement and four stories above ground. It's construction Is
 O. reinforced concrete with outer walls of 1 brick and terra cotta tie, and provides for the addition of three more stories. l It is insulated throughout with cork | boards, the material most approved for | this purpose. The building Is equipped with elevators and every modern meth | cd for the quick handling of goods into | and out of storage.
 | There is no building in the state that apr reaches the new plant in its up-to-date construction and equipment It was de- signed by J. D. Davis of Chicago, an architect who specializes in cold storage houses and appliances. The building is absolutely fireproof and contains approx imately 300.000 cubic feet of actual cold storage space.
 Arrangements for the maintenance of

 "(3). That recent successful scientific achievements have placed at the disposal of agriculture in this country chemical compounds which allow the production of a complete or universal fertilizer. With cries promise to revolutionize our pres ent system of fertilization.
 "(4). With cheap water power, the inn portance of these scientific achievements, and their effects upon the cotton and food crops of the country ,and upon the question of national defense and the preparedness of the United States in time of war, are so far-reaching and of such unusual national interest at the present time. that the adoption of the Muscle Shoals project by Congress. and it's en- couragement by .the President and the Secretary of War can be regarded as no less than a patriotic duty.
 ''(5). That the President of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Repre- SentatiVeS snail appoint a JOlnt cOminit- tee of five members from the Senate and five members from the House of Representatives. as a joint legislative committee. and the President of the Sen ate and the Speaker of the House shall be each a member of these respective committees, and the governor of the state shall be the ex officio chairman of these committees, and, also, that the governor of the state is hereby requested to se- lect and appoint 12 representative cit izens from the state of Alabama, not members of this legislature, to joint the legislative committees hereby created, and without expense to the state, these leg islative committees and citizens commit tee are requested by the legislature of the state to visit Washington during the early days of the first session of Con- gress, assembling in December and pre- sent a copy of these resolutions to the President of the United States, to the Secretary of War, to the Secretary of Agriculture, to the chairman of the com merce committee of the Senate. to the chairman of the committee on rivers and harbors, and to each United States sem ator and representative in Congress from the state of Alabama. and pressingly urge upon them the national importance. and. indeed. the nations necessity that the Muscle Shoals project be adopted by the Sixty-fourth Congress. and during it's first session."
