water. in San Bernsrdino county, on the
edge of the Colorado desert, for %
years. He epeaks most of the Indian
dialects. The weed, he says, is a
euphorbia and ia common through Cali
fornis and Arizona. 1t iB vine-like
plant, radisting from center, growing
close to the earth; the leaf resembles
the clover, but it is less than half as
large. When a stem is broken milky
exudstion follows, similar to that of the
''milkweed" of the east. Mr.. Smith
gives this as the method of application :
The green weed should be macerated in
water, the skin about the bite scarified
and the pulpy mess of the plant placed
on it and rubbed we'll it; this should be
repeated at intervals for 10 or 20
minute, and then poultice OF the same
plant should be bound on and left.
Mr.. Smith holds that within AZ hours
all symptoms Of poison will disappear.
So confident is he that he offers to settle
the discussion with DR.. Mitchell in true
western style by offering to bet $500 or
$1,000 that with the euphorbia he can
cure any case of rattlesnake bite, and
he will allow DIR. Weir to pick out his
own snake. The Mexicans know the
weed and call 1t golondrno.
