CALIFosNIA BEER SEED.-Quite
of our exchanges are warning
the people against the use of this seed
in the production of beer, Several
deaths have been attributed to it in
Madison county in this State, as well
asslewhere. In some cases it is said
that it has been found in the viscera of
individuals upon post norton examina-
ton. Ifthere is danger, we think it
accruiag when some of the seed is
swallowed, the precaution not having
been observed to strain the beer before
drinking. 1t has been used here and
ard hereabouts for year without any
de.leterioIs or fatal effects; and we
may add. that in California where il
originated, it has always been consid-
cred INFECTIOUS. 1t would be well
however, for some chemist to analysis
tho seed and set all doubts to rest, ant
in order to suggest such a course, vi
allude to the subject at this time
