The new, Trans1Siberian railway,
when complete, is to be the safest,
cheapest and most comfortable in the
world. The safety of the Manchurian
line will be due to the fatness of the
region ~traversed, not a single tunnel
being necessary between the Ural and
the Amour; that is tosay, from one end
of Siberia to the other.

A Dangerous Weed.

The season has been so unusually dry
that stock are grazing the 'sloughs''
much closer than usual, and already we
have reports Of many cases of poison
ing, probably in many instances due to
eating water hemlock. one Of the most
poisonous plants found in this country.
Water hemlock is oun growing in he
''sloughs" and wet lands Of this state.
Meadows will be cut for hay closer
than ever this summer and many ami
mails will, judging from past expert
ences, be poisoned from eating, in the
fall. the hay containing this plant. See
that no water hemlock gets into the hay
If you would save you animals. Horses,
cattle and sheep alike may be poisoned
by eating the hay, the green plant, or
from drinking the water where the roots
are being tramped upon. 1t resembles, in
general appearance, wild parsnip, but
grows in wet land, and not on high dry
lands, as does the wild parsnip.
