tors cabin at Reade's siding, are five
or six clusters of PoIygaIa poEganla.
They are up against the wall and
scattered about in the grass. 1t is
here that the north and south bound
trolleys cross. Several have seen the
little purpIe-pink flowers and Won
deTed what they We're. They are of
the milk-weed family. This plant has
a popularity in that it has two sets
of blossoms, the one that catches ev-
cry eye above ground and a number of
blossoms below the surface on the
roots. This latter is the blossom that
perpetuates the plants species. No
one has yet discovered what purpose
the pretty above ground flowers serve.
