MILK SICKNESS TrembIe Weed

MILK SICKNESS - TfembLe Weed. -
There has been much anxiety among
the people in some parts Of the State
to aSceI tain the cause of milk sickness
or suck stomach, wh Ich often impairs the
constitution, and sometimes proves fatal
1t as generally supposed to be produced
by a kind Of weed or shrub which IN c
cattle eat, and the poison thus becomes
incorporated in the flesh and in the mix
which produces disease called the
trembles, in the cattle, and the sick
stomach, or milk sickness, in a human
being who partakeS Of the flesh, butter,
or milk OF the animal affected. Others
deny this, and attribute the caIamities
10 the imPurily OF the water al its low
stage. Those who hold it to be a weed
supposed IL to be one resembling ivy 4:
but there is another kind that has been
found to produce these effects, which we
have been requested To notice.
Mr.. Thomas James, Of Perkins, bro't
TO our office a few stalks of weed VIII icn
he says is the principal green vegetable
In stubbe ield, into which he turned
his cattle after the grain was removed.
In a short time he discovered that these
cattle had The trenches. For the pun
pose of ascert~ining the elect Of this
weed, he shut up yearling calf, in "a
perfectly healthy state, in yard, and
fed 1t exclusively on this weed, with the
exception Of some hay, and as much
water as it wanted. To make the weed
PalateabIe, it was dipped in brine. Ia
three days the calf slCkened, and died Of
the trembIes on the seventh day.
The weed grows spontaneously about
iafee leet high, has round wiry stalk,
a smooth leaf, a small white blossom and
an unpleasant smell. MIR. James Will
give any Information upon the subject
10 any person who will take the trouble
u call upon him for the same.-SaHdus
