WHAT KILLS STOCK?
"Water" "Oregon Water"
or,4poison" Hemlock
CHARACTERISTICS OP EACH
Correspondent Says Only the Root of
the Deschutes Plnnt Is Harmful
nnd Hint not for Horses.
DiMCiiimtA, Crook Co., Or. July
28 (To the Jvditorj In your last
issue I sec n note to the effect that
Dr. Nichol has lost two horses
through what he thinks is thcvatcr
hemlock and thinks that the horses
that died on the ditch work were
killed by eating the wild hay that
grows on the Deschutes river. I
do not think his horses died from
eating the wild hay or that they
got the poison from that source, as
the tops of the water hemlock arc
harmless and only the root will
jioi.son cattle 'and I do not think
it will poison horses at all, neither
the roots nor the tops. At least
I never heard of such a thing as
the water hemlock killing horse?
and it seems to me impossible for
the root of the weed to get into the
hay. If anyone is interested in
finding out il it will horses he can
find out by addressing the Agri
cultural College at Corvallis, Ore
gon. John Atkinson.
According to Farmers' Bulletin
No. 86, entitled "Thirty Poisonous
Plants of the United states," issued
by the department of agriculture at
Washington, water hemlock or
spotted jwrsley is found rarely on
the eastern s'ope of the Rockies
and is not mentioned as appearing
at all west of that range. This is
not conclusive, however, for dis
coveries of both plant and animal
life are frequently made on the
Pacific slope that have distinct re
lation with forms on the other side.
This side is too new for all products
to be known to science. The Bui
letin says:
This ih one of the most poisonous
native plant in the fulled StHte, tcltiK
rapilly fatal to Ituth iimii ami aniniflls.
The riMttimrc eK.'cilly daneron. In
iutr)ii' cattle are Mioitel by drink
iuK water eotitaminated by the jnicc of
mot that haw liven rrutHeil by lieing
tramped upon.
Another plant that is described is
the Oregon water hemlock, which
blooms in July and August, with
white clusters on stems three to six
feet tall, and has a fleshy, bulbous
root, which furnishes the bulk of
the poison. A piece of this as bip
as a walnut is fatal to a cow.
Professor Hedrick, of the Oregon
Agricultural College, believes that
more than too cattle are killed by
it every year in Oregon. This
seems to be the plant referred to by
Mr. Atkinson.
Poison hemlock is described as
still another of tlioe fatally poison
ous plants, also known as spotted
parsley. It isnuativeof Kurope and
Asia but hus become naturalized in
the United States and is spread
from coast to coast. Its blossoms
appear in July and August in
showy clusters of white on hollow
stalks two to seven feet tall. Any
part of the plant is poisonous at nil
times, but the root is comparatively
harmless in the spring months
This is the plant with which
Socrates was killed.
The first two of these plants
grow in wet, marshy places, the
other in any old waste place.

ALL LIKE THIS COUNTRY
GOVERNOR MERRICK GREATLY PLEASED
Tells Portland People About lt--Da-
kota People Come to Bend to
Sec if Crops Really Grow.
Messrs. Turney Johnston andStan
Icy, of the D. I. & P. Co., and their
guests, Governor Hcrrickand party,
had a fine trip across the mountains
to Lebanon last week. When tbev
reached Albany the citizens gave
them a reception that completely
captivated them. At Portland
Governor Hcrrick spoke glowingly
of the Deschutes country in a col
umn story in the Journal, saying
among other things.
" It K-ems to me that the irrigation
work 011 tile JJevchutes U a great pro
ject" said governor Merrick, "a work
that will Ik of itreat benefit to the state.
Water in running through Mime of the
canals that are to reclaim 300,000 acres.
The reMilt of irrigation i wonderful,
.and which Itefore only knew the sage
lirut.li and jackrahltit suddenly become
an expanse of fertile fields, growing all
cereals and fodders, garden truck and
the luxuriesas well as the necessities of
agriculture. It seemed that almont any
thing in the line of agriculture common
to the country was found there, except
corn.
"The experiment station established
there, which is under control of the
ioverumeut, is doing good work. A rep
reM.nitatie lias been sent to take chance
of the station and is directing the vnl
liable experiment work in progress.
This insure to be of great Iwucfit to the
farmers taking the laud, as they are
taught the exact quantity of water re
quired for best results, and shown what
is too little or too much. The moit ap
proved methods of preparing the land
are taught. 1 11 every respect I found
the experiment station flurishitig.
"The transportation problem is going
to tic solved without any trouble on the
part of the people down there. Thev
sre now producing n tonnage tlwt will
bring the railways, wiOtotU bonus or
further effort "the eUlers coming in,
their supplies required and the produce
ready for the outside market will quickly
solve this problem. The production ol
the soil will lie tremendous in the near
future, for the water, all that is required
to make it phenomenally fertile, is being
delivered.
"That is a good law under which this
work is being done. It is beneficial to the
jK-oplc in encouraging development and
in limiting the price which may be
charged for land."
Prauk Glass came in Tuesday
with n party of Kastern people who
had started for the Deschutes
country but met with so many
knockers that they were going
back without investigating-. Thej
were taken out to Powell buttes to
see the grain fields nnd fruits, came
to Kend to see the I). I. & P. Co.'s
experiment farm nnd the gardens
and went away convinced that
what they heard was untrue and
that this country would be richly
productive. The O'Neil garden
the first year and as fine as any
where Tompkins' 6J4-fbot peas
and Ilatten's garden and field con
vinced these doubting Thomases
completely.
A. 11. Kst.ebeuct purchased the
A. C. Lm;as 'residence property
last week, for a consideration of
1,100, and will move in about
the soth of this month. This ex
cellent property is situated at the
cornprof Tenth street and Hawthorn
nyentte, in the eastern part of town
and Mr. Kstebenet considers himself-
fortunate to have been able to
secure- so desirable a location.
W.K. Gjterjn, jr., having when
Governor Herrjck, was here made
arrangements for taking up n lu
crative law practice in Cleveland,
Ohio, is about ,t,o move there. The
family will leave Bend tomorrow
,for a. trip over the mountains to the
railroa.it at'-L-qb.arton. Mr. Gnerin

WAGES RAISED AGAIN
Men on Ditch to be Paid
$2.25 a Day.
NEW RATE FROM AUGUST I
Fifty More Men are Wanted and
Steady Employment Promised
No More Teamsk
The Deschutes Irrigation & Power
Company this week advanced wage,
of men employed ort cahal construc
tion from $2 to $2.5 a day the
rate that was paid before the re
duction of last February. This ad
vancc dates from August i The
company would like to get fift
more workmen at once and will
vcive them steady employment at
the new figure. Of teams the com
pany has more than enough of its
own for nil present needs, but it
will take new men as fast as thev
come.
The work on the flume will be
completed by the middle of this
month, and nftcr that there will he
no interruption except by acrf
dent) in the service of watct
through that channel. Several of
the carpenters now employed then
arc expected to go to Redmond for
construction of new quat of tho
company there
A crew of men is employed on
the Central Oregon canal extcntiou
a dozen miles or so to the southeast
of Bend, hut the force has been so
reduced by the hegira to the har
vest fields that the progress
has not been all that was detrcd
On account of shortage of men the
company this week turned out to
pasture 35 horses. The increase ot
vvages is expected to bring the total
brce up to about 100 men and then
the company can work 60 of its
teams.
At Redmond the company will
erect headquarters buildings similar
to thoe it has at Bend, except tho
office which will be one-story, nm
there will be only one grain store
house. Two Accidents.
Harry Hinton who works for the
Bend Livery 'and Transfer Co., fell
from the backofaloadof hay toda
noon and struck across a scantling
on the small of his back, suffering
quite serious injury, which will lav
him up for several weeks.
Tom Parkminton, one of the
workmen employed on Central Ort
on canal construction, is at the
Merrill hospital with a broken leg
He was working at clearing Jght
of-way Wednesday, and six horses
eere pulling to uproot a junipc
tree, when some part of a harness
broke and let a whitTletree back
tgainst Parkinson's leg with such
force as to fracture the bone just
below the knee. It is not thought
that the joint will be affect.-1 by the
injury. Dr. Coe set the member,
and the man was brought to towi
yesterday.
- Mr. and Mrs. P. L. TonlpkiiK
