3 CATTLE MADE CRAZY.

Loco Weed Has Poisonous Effects
-. Upon Cattle Who Eat II.
y Livingston, Mont. July 11s-Larks-
pin, better known as the loco weed, is
bringing heavy loss to cattlemen in
various sections of the state. After
two years of freedom from the weed
the ranchers are again confronted
with it, and dozens of cattle are dying
Jas "a; rsAnlt of eating of the plant. j. r.
.Hathern, whose herds are on Trial
creek, is the latest sufferer, Thus far
this week he has lost nearly fifty head,
while several hundred of the animals
are sick at the present time. After
eating~of the weed the cattle become
crazy and unless closely watched start
off on the run, stopping only long
enough to attack anything and every
thing, in their path. This insanity
contihfes for perhaps twenty-four
hours, when the unfortunate animals
drop dead. For several days stockmen
of the West have been searching for
an antidote for this poison weed, but
as yet. they have found none.
