Treatment for Loco.

The results Of the loco weed when
eaten by stock are unpleasantly ia
miliar to the stockman of the plains
east of the Rocky mountains. 1t has
been estimated that the losses from
this source in Colorado alone have
reached the sum of a million dollars
per annE1l. The national bureau Of
plant industry has been taking a turn
at the loco problem, and G. d. Marsh,
expert in poison plants, reports that
it has been found that locoed cattle
can in most cases be cured by a course
of treatment with strychnine, while
locoed horses can generally be cured
by a course of treatment with Fow-
lers solution. The animals under
treatment must not be allowed to eat
the loco weed and should be given not
only nutritious food, but so far as pos
sible, food with laxative properties,
To this end magnesium sulphate was
administered to correct the constipa-
ton which is almost universal among
locoed animals. 1t should be noted,
too, that magnesium sulphate may
serve to some extent as an antidote to
the poison.
1t may be added in regard to the
question Of immunity that loco poison
ing comes on in a slow and cumulative
manner. so that there Is no possibility
of animals becoming immune.
