persist Is attributable to the slow ger
mination of the seeds, the fact that
sometimes two and three years will
pass before the seed begins to sprout.
but with a patient watchfulness the
poison weeds can be controlled and the
range made safe.
The action of the loco weed is slow;
an animal can feed on it for weeks
and then, If 1t is changed to an alfalfa

many cases, but there are certain in
dividuals among the animals that de-

It's poison. The first symptom of the
working poison is a change in nature;
the high spirited animal becomes list
less and stands around apparently
without the least desire to move. A
locoed horse is always dangerous be-
cause there is no telling just what
form the disease will assume. Some
horses will stand quietly Until hand
is laid upon them and then, with utter
backward or bolt in frenzied terror
not stopping or swerving for any OBJ
stacle, frequently dashing against
cliffs or over precipices to death. The

ceases to eat and stands around with
head dropped until too weak and then
lies down to die, refusing all food
placed before it.
AS antidote for loco poisoning the
government experts suggest the use of
strychnine for cattle and an arsenical
solution for horses. These drugs,
while proving beneficial, are very slow
to overcome the weakness that is Incl
dent to loco poisoning, but persistent
use coupled with good feeding has
saved many a valuable animal that
otherwise would have died. Proven
ton of the evil also is dwelt upon by
the experts and the careful watching
of the stock in seasons of short food
is their suggestion, together with the
feeding of the animals when the loco
weed exists, for while the habit of
eating loco is almost impossible to
overcome, still the first venture is in
variably the result of scarcity of
grass. Investigation is still going on
in government laboratories, and the
evil having been determined, steps are
being taken to find a radical method of
treatment, not only for the cure of the
habit, for eating loco weed is nothing
but a habit, but also for the develop
ment of some medium which will de-
stroy the plants in a cheap manner and
thus reclaim much land that has come
to be known as poison range"
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1910-05-08

# HE loco weed has been a matter of
much worriment to sheep and cat
tie men for years, and, while it's
effects on stock were undeniable, still
there was very little known about it, a
dozen different kinds of plant life in the
west being designated comprehensively
as loco.
Such loss OF stock was consequent
upon the eating of the weed by range
animals that at last the government
instituted systematic study of the
matter, with the result that the poison
Gus varieties have been discovered and
bulletins issued to stockmen describing
just what plants are responsible for
the loss of stock, the method of pre-
venting loco and the means of curing ii
in its early stages. The poisonous va
riety of loco weed is wide in range. eX
tending from Mexico to Montana, and
of all the different plants popularity
supposed to produce loco in cattle, sheep
or horses, it has been discovered that
only two varities the purple loco weed
and the white loco weed, are danger
Gus.
The purple loco weed is not so wide
spread in its distribution, by any means,
as the white, and is commonly known
as the Texas loco 1t extends over the
states of Arizona, New Mexico, Colo
RADIO, Kansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma and
Texas, and grows IN varying abundance,
generally confined to patches in depres-
sions where the heavy adobe soil makes
a bowl to hold the water. The leaves
are hairy, from which it gets the name
applied to it in certain parts of Texas,
where it is called the woolly loco, and
the flowers are very deep purple, com
ing forth in April in New Mexico and
not appearing until June in Colorado.
This variety of the poisonous weed is
rarely harmful, being confined to horses,
for the other range animals will actu-
ally suffer from starvation rather than
eat of the green leaves when there is
no other food to be obtained.
The white loco extends more widely
over the western country, reaching
from Mexico to Canada and extending
east and west from Utah into Mime
sofa. The common name for this de-
structive variety of the deadly loco
plant is rattle weed. derived from the
fact that when its seed pods dry they
make a rafting noise when moved al
most Identical in sound to the whir-
ring warning of the deadly rattlesnake.
The flowers, ordinarily white upon the
plains, show quite variation in color
ing in the mountainous regions, some
times even being purple. but of a less
pronounced shade, however, than the
purple loco weed. Its growth is gem
orally upon sandy soil. and usually
upon an elevation and, in some places,
il grows in very great abundance, pre-
senting from distance the appearance
