CATTLE POISONING IN WEST
Many Animals Killed by Being Turned
Into Field of Second Growth
or Stunted Sorghum.

Again reports are coming in regard
ing the poisoning of cattle on cor
ghum, says the Colorado experiment
station bulletin. Every year this plant
takes its fearful toll. Always it is
the same story: A bunch of cattle
were turned into a field of second
growth or stunted sorghum and most
of them died before they could be
driven out So deadly is the poison
that few mouthfuls are suffic Client to
produce death. Yet this same sor-
ghum is perfectly harmless If cut and
allowed to dry.
Under conditions where the growth
is retarded the plant seems to elab-
crate a glucoside. which when taken
into the stomach of cattle produces
hydrocyanic or prussic ;-cid. the most
deadly poison known, hence the rapid
ity with which death ensues.
No treatment is known that is Of
any avail and even though an anti
dote were known there is little or no
time in which to use it.
1t was formerly supposed that only
saccharine sorghums were harmful,
but now We know that under similar
conditions of growth kaffir corn at
least is fatal
If these sorghums must be pas
tured, It is always safer to turn in
only one animal at first to determine
the effect before risking the whole
herd

TOO EXCITING FOR CROKER
Ex-Tammany Chief, Like SO Many,
Others, SUccumbed to the Fssci-
nation Of Stephenson.

The ideas of Richard Croker do not
run on bookish lines. Regretting this
circumstance and considering that a
taste for literature, once inculcated..
might be source of pleasure in his
advanced years, journalistic friend
who crossed the Atlantic with the one
time chieftain of Tamfnany hall not
long ago cornered him in the steam
ships library one evening and OBJ
tanned a reluctant permission to read
Treasure Island" to him.
Much to his friends encouragement,
Mr.. Croker listened with unfeigned in
terest until the lights went out and
apparently enjoyed the narration of
the exciting events of John Morgan,
Billy Bones, Black Dog, John Silver
and the others. Wherefore, finding
Mr.. Croker in the library the next
evening, the journalist again pro
duced his volume of Stevenson and
drew up a chair. But the one-time
Tammany chieftain lifted protesting
hand.
Don't read that book to me any
MORE ne said. 81 couldn't get to
sleep last night for thinking about
those fellows"

GOOD FACTS OF IRRIGATION
knowledge and Experience Required
to Determln Just When Crops
Need Water and How Much.

In order to determine Just when
crops need water and when to apply
1t so that they will not suffer from
drought nor be injured by too fire.
quent or too generous applications.
requires a knowledge and experience
that can be gained only by practice
and a close observation of various
crops under irrigation. 1t is the ex-
perience of many practical irrigators
that If an unlimited supply of water
is available crops more frequently
suffer from overirrigation than from
drought. 1t is difficult to determine
when the development of the crop Is
first arrested on account of a lack OF
moisture in the soil Some expert
mentors maintain that this point can
be more definitely decided by an ex-
animation Of the soil than by the APP
pearance of the plant as the latter
shows evidence of the check in it's
growth some days after it has &C.
Cured. Usually # is then too late to
prevent serious loss. as the crop rare
ly RECEIVERS from such treatment, and
seldom reaches the development it
rigated at the proper time.
Plants will usually indicate by a
change In color or by their general
appearance whether they need water
or when they have been overirrigated.
Most field crops turn to a darker
green when in need of water, and the
leaves and stems show a tendency to
droop or curl. The lower leaves as
sumo pale yellow. A crisp or dead
appearance in the lower leaves is one
of the best indications that a plant
needs water. Grain which has suffered
from drought may mature. but the
straw will be small and short and the
Kernels will be shrunken and inferior
In quality. Alfalfa and similar crops
have the appearance of cured hay.
Where field crops are overirrigated
the color of the foliage becomes a
yellowish green and the plants have
a sickly appearance. These indica-
lions vary with the quality of the soil
so that it is impossible to lay down
fixed rules to govern the number or
frequency of irrigations. Only close
observation for number of years on
the same farm will enable a person to
tell by the appearance of the plants
whether they need water or not.
The amount of moisture in the sol
may be determined with sufficient ac
curacy for the needs of the plant by
eXaming a sample taken a few
inches from the surface of the
ground. If it clings together wher
nodded into ball and shows the
print of the fingers, there is moisture
enough present. If the earth falls
apart when the land is opened, irri
cation is needed.
