1t has been found by Governments
experts that the poisonous action of the
loco weed Is due to barium. Investiya-
lions have been in progress for the past
FEW years to determine the cause OF
this condition of range stock, which
mas come to be known as "locoed." The
reason the weed is so poisonous b. .ome
sections and not in others is tia. ON
some soils 1t contains no barium. The
Bureau Of Plant Industry, in a recent
bulletin, says that 1t is possible to kill
out the weeds If the pastures are
fenced. as the weeds grow in patches.
Ihere Is no feasible way of Kidding
ranges of the weeds, however.
1t was found that locoed cattle can
IN most cases be cured by a course Of
treatment with strychnlne, while
locoed horses can generally be cured by
course Of treatment with FowIer's
solutions. The animals under treat
ment must not be allowed to eat tho
loco weed and should be given only
INJURIOUS food, but as far as possible
rood with laxative properties. To this
end magnesium sulphate was admins
tered to correct the constipation, which
Is almost universal among locoed AMI
mails 1t should be noted, too, that
magnesium sulphate may serve to some
extent as an antidote to the poison.

Riley is Free, Others Held.

With one of the Hadar bank robber
suspects, James Riley, turned loose,
and with the other two suspects
James Morrison and Harry Joyce, re-
manded to his care but given until
March IS to appeal to the supreme
court, Sheriff e. A. Dryer returned to
Pierce this morning from Sioux City,
where he and County Attorney Stewart
have been central figures in a bitter
court battle before District Judge
Mould over the acquisitions brought
against the three prisoners held by
the Sioux City police.
Sought to Prove Abb.
Attorney Dan Sullivan for the
prisoners made every possible effort
to prove an alibi for the men. Six
witnesses were put on the stand to-
ward this end.
PIainview Baker Cinches Morrison.
James Morrison, supposed to be the
ringleader, would hardly have been
held but for the testimony of Sam
Johnson, a baker at Plainview. John
son positively identified Morrison as
man he saw in his restaurant on the
morning after the robbery. He thought
Riley might have been with him but
was not sure. From this it appears
that the robbers went to Plainview
after the robbery, taking the Burling-
ton into Sioux City. John w. Fetter,
it now develops, saw Morrison in
Hadar January 1G.
Norfolk Man Forgets.
George Morris, clerk at the Pioneer
roOming house in Norfolk, destroyed
by fire during a January blizzard,
recognized at the Jail in Sioux City
both Riley and Joyce as having stop
ped with him in Norfolk. Then he
went up town. When he got back in
the afternoon he had forgotten all
about the men.
Mrs. Farley, whose husband ran the
rooming house, was to have gone to
Sioux City, Ia, but instead is now in
Long Beach, Cal.
Mrs. StantieId Helped.
The identification of Joyce by Mrs.
Stanfield of Norfolk is thought to have
been largely responsible for Joyce be-
ing turned over to the Nebraska au-
thorities along with Morrison.
March 10 the Day.
Attorney Sullivan has until March
Is to go before the supreme court for
his men. If he appeals the supreme
court will fix the amount of the bond
which the men must give before they
can get out of Jail pending the hearing.
If the appeal is not taken the men
will be brought to Nebraska i'm
mediately after the eighteenth by
Sheriff Dwyer. 1t is not believed that
the appeal will be taken.
