HEALTH
POISON OAK
' (Hy Dr. I-'i'ederlrk Strieker)
There is one plant that heralds
the approach of yrooler weather 1
quicker than all other vegetation
native lo the stato of Oreaon. The
leases of poison oak or rhus dlver
iiloba' are usually the first to
change color. The poison oak
plant Li perhaps most frequently
n countered by the unsitspeettiif?
eltv visitor to the country. Vet it
may be distinguished easily from '
other plants by its shiny . leaves, j
which are grouped In threes. Two i
nt the leaves are opposite and short ,
.stalked, while the middle leaf is
long stalked. It grows as a short j
shrub or nmnll tree. Us berries
are smooth and greenish, which
1 titer turn to a yellowish while. ;
These distinguishing " marks, if'
borne In mind, wilt protect the va
cationist from poison oak.
Poisoning usually occurs as a re
sult of actual contact with some
part nf the plant. It Is possible,
however, thsit a person can be poi
soned bv tlie leaf hairs or pollen
of the plant if only a short distance
from It. The poison is also spread
by burning the shrub. While many
people can wander at will through
a growth of poison oak without
danger, there e,re' some 'p'b"pfe who
nre highly susceptible to the poi
son. If you have come in conflict with
poison oak. one of the surest and
Itest ways to prevent the eruption
l to nne soup nnd warm wster. for
the poison requires some time to
penetrate the skin. A stiff brush
should not be used as this might
lend lo drive the poisonous mnie
ftnl farther Into the skin. "Vse a
heavy lather and continue washing
for almost four or five minutes
with pledgets of cloth or gnuze.

..The symptoms of poison oak are
comparatively env to recognize. A
more or less mild attack may be
ushered in by a burning and itch
ing of the skin. Within 21 hours
afier the skin Is exposed to the
poi.Hon u red rash appears. This
Is folic wed by more or less swell
ing and itching, then small blisters
filled with serum make their ap
pearance. The irritation of the
eruption may be allayed by im
mersing the inflamed surface in a
solution of hyposulphite of soda in
the proportion of two tablespoons
tn the quart of water. Warm solu
tion of boric acid or common salt
or bilking soda may be used to re
lieve the Irritation.
Favorable reports on the use of
extracts of pcisuti ntik lor the pre
vention and treatment of this form
of skin In flam nmt Ion have been
made by a number of phyHieitinH.
A bad case of poison onk always
requires Ihe attention of a physi
cian. In any rice if I he infection
causes fever, pain or headache, it
is much safer to call a physician.
