The Lewistown Argus says that the
, t~incture of aconite has been found a
great aid in poisoning wolves and coy
otes. One or two drops of the tincture
mixed with strychnine is dead medicine
for the animals. Very frequently wolves
and coyotes do not fall victims to
!, strychnine owing to its inferior quality
l or some other reason, but it is said there
is no escape when aconite is added as a
} part of the portion. j.. L. Stuart, who
, prepares his poison in this manner, says
l he never knew the dose::to fail in killing
: when the animals had eaten the bait
, thus prepared.
