The Parrot Feather,

HEARD near the old fountain in the
sunken plaza at the north front
Of the Treasury. What is it?" "Oh,
it is something or other that grows.
I did know its name. but l have for
gotten it" And so forth.
The object of this line of talk il
the green growth which most per.
sons interested in such matters have
learned to call parrot feather" a
plume-like masses of the plant. II
was ten or twelve years ago that this
plant was set out in the fountain
basin. Cold weather kills it. but the
the gardener of the Treasury sets out
bit of the same species Of plant
each spring and by summer it has
reached such a growth that most per-
sons notice it, When parrot feather
was planted in the Treasury's north
fountain this is what was written in
The Star about it:
What was an old-fashioned fountain
trickling a stingy stream is being
transmitted by the landscape gar
dener. or landscape architect, as these
gentlemen prefer to be called. into
strange device suggestive of a Christ
mas decoration. 1t is the color of
emerald. or shamrock, or something
equally green and dear. 1t is growing
bountifully upward from the top Of
the fountain and then falling in
feathery and plumey passes. This will
continue through the growing sea-
son. and soon this plant will veil all
the ironwork of the fountain. and
water. OF course it is a marine plant.
Thousands Of persons passing the
Treasury have stopped and stared at
this green growth and have asked
many questions"
When the questions first began to
ury could answer them. So they sent
for a plant-wise man from the Bo-
tanic Garden or the Department of
Agriculture and he told them. The
member the name, but could not.
Then they had the plant-sharp write
it out for them and they set down the
name in a big book in the Office of
the captain of the watch. When per
sons would ask the name of the cri-
Gus plant the book would be opened
and the questioner would read this:
''AIyriophylum prosednacordis." That
is the name of the plant. The first
word is easy. but the second Is a
lame in the classics. The '.myrio
phylum' part Of it is easy. "Myrio''
is from the Greek word meaning ten
thousand, from which also comes
myriad" ''Phylum" is from "phyl-
Latin "folia" means leaf. The wo---
''prosefinacordis" presents difficulties.
Perhaps prose" is an arrangement
Of the words PRO" or forward and

relation to "pinna," which means
feather, and whence we get pin

NEW FERTILIZER PLANT CON-
PLETED.

The Washington, Alexander &
Cooke Company, have just completed
the rebuilding of their fertilizer
plant, which was burned last August.
The new plant has been built by
Hugger Brothers Construction Com
pany, of Montgomery, Alabama, who
make a speciality of the construction
CT fertilizer plants.
The new building and equipment is
a model plant of its kind. The
/ building is $50 by 1872 feet wide,
with concrete floor over the entire
area. The shipping platform is so
by $50 feet. Along side of the plant
rs double railroad siding which
enables twelve cars to be loaded at
one time. The building is equipped
with two complete mixing and bag
glng units, and all modern con-
veniences operated by separate mo-
tors, in addition to which is an un-
loading equipment for unloading ma
terial from cars; also bone mill for
grinding bone and tankage. The
bag department is equipped with one
OF the latest model Koehler bag
printing presses, and a complete set
OF type for printing bags; also a
waxing machine electrically heated
for treating the bags with wax to
preserve them. The new building as
completed is Of sufficiently large ca
paclty to enable the manufacture of
from twenty to twenty-five thousand
tons per annum.
In this plant Charles Town has the
most complete fertilizer plant in this
whole section, and we wish the Wash
lngton, Alexander & Cooke Company
all the success possible in this enter |
prise, which should be literally patro-
nlzed by Jefferson County farmers
The Washington, Alexander &
Cooke Company, request US to say !,
that they would be pleased to have
anyone wishing to go over the plant |
to call and look it over.
