Oregon, Thursday, September 21, 1916 Pre Twen v-TKre Experts Give Advice How to Fight Larkspur - ... - Lurkspur poisoning which) each year causes Ions to tin- cattlemen of Mtwn Oregon has hccii the subject of an exhaustive study conducted by the IT, S. department of agriculture. Much larkspur poisoning l said to abound in the I'matllla forest. The recent experiment conducted by the department, a report of which Is publlBhed In Professional 1'aper No. 365, Indicate that the various (ipeoles of lurkspur are poisonous to eltle and horses, but not to sheep. Sxcept under unumial circumKtancea, however, horses do not eat enough ofi the plant to produce any 111 effects. 1 Prom a practical standpoint, there fore, tt may be said that larkspur af Tecta cattle only. It was also found that a ciuantlty of the weed eiual to at least 3 per cent of the weight of the animal wiu necessary to produce poisoning. In the opinion of the investigators, the fact that sheep are apparent nhle to feed upon liirkepnrs with en ure impunity may ttu utllliscd in .some I'ti-es to protect the cuttle. Wliert) lurkspur is especially abund ant, the paper already mentioned sas it Is dmirable to use tlie range for sheep grazing rather than for lat tle or to combine sheep grazing and laltle grazing In such a manner thai I be areas Infested with larkspur shall be first eaten down by the sheep. On comparatively limited areas It may be possible to dig up the tall lark spur but this Is frequently too costly a measure to be adopted and, fur thermore, it is rurely possible to erad icate competely the poisonous weed. (lenerally speaking, there are two great groups of larkspurs the tall and the low. The low disappear from the range early in July and cases of poisoning from them are usually con fined to the months of May ' and June. The tall larkspurs live through the summer season, making their first appearance In early spring. This Is the time In which they are the moid poisonous. After blossoming, their poisonous character appears to dimin Ish. Ultimately, It disappears and the plant dries up although the Beeds re main poisonous In Colorado, most of the cases of poisoning from the tall larkspure occur in May and June, with sporadic cases In July, lp other localities, however, the larkspur blossoms later and poutoning may occur as late as August or even September. On the range the first evidence thirl the animal lias been poisoned is frequently afforded by its falling down. After a short interval it will probably regain Its feet only to fall again. As the effect of the poison wears off, the anlma! Is able to keep its feet for longer and longer period and finally walks off very much as ir nothing hail happened. In severer ' cases It is ultimately unable t regain Its feet at all and dies fjovernment experiments indi'ate that beneficial results may be obtained by treating tiie poisoned animals with hypoder mic injections of physostigmin salicy late, pilocarpi!! hvdi-orhlorid and strychnin snlph ite. 1:' neeessarv, these treatment m;'v be followed b b pe.lerimc Injection of whiskey. 0 r I0DOC I0E30I I0E30C 30D0I IOEJO o B o o D o THE LARGEST AND FINEST LINE OF Electric Fixtures IN ALL EASTERN OREGON DON T think that you have to send to the larger cities for your . electric fixtures Just come and see us.
