SORGHUM POISON IN CATTLE
BY Geo. K. White, NJ. D., ID. v. S.
State Live Stock Inspector

The plant botanically known as
Sorghum Vulgare or as referred
to throughout this section Of the
country as sorghum" when
eaten by cattle during certain
stages of its development isa dead
| ly poison on account Of the prussic
acid which it contains, Prussic
acid is recognized the world over
as one Of the most dangerous and
deadly 'poisons. !"
Sorghum retarded or stunted in
growth contains larger percent
of prussic acid than docs that
which grows rapidly and develops
into a healthy vigorous plant.
The leaves are more heavily load
ed with prussic acid than the stalk.
AS much as | percent prussic acid
has been extracted from green
sorghum leaves. This would mean
that one pound of these leaves
would contain a fatal dose for an
ordinary COW or steer. In mature
sorghum the stalks and seeds do
not contain prusssie acid.
There is an erroneous impression
abroad to the effect that it is only
the second crop of sorghum which
is poisonous to cattle. This is in
correct as the first crop contains
as large per cent of the poison as
does the second crop. However
this erroneous idea rises from the
fact that the first crop is rarely
ever pastured, whereas it is not at
all unusual, especially in the early
fall, for cattle to be turned into
fields whers the shoots and the
young plant of the second growth
or crop are developing. 1t is
under these conditions that the
cattle owner should fear death
from sorghum poison. Every
year in Tennessee during the late
summer and early fall hundreds
of cattle are lost from poison of
this character.
Experiments to date demonstrate
that dry, clear weather, by arrest
ing the normal development of the
plant, is the chief cause Of the for
nation Of abnormal quantities of
poison.
Symptoms The usual sym
toms presented may be summar-
lied about as follows. However
it should be borne in mind that
these symptoms may vary, depend
ing upon the amount of sorghum
consumed and the percent of prus-
sic acid which it contains, the
susceptibility and size of the in
dividual animal, etc: Drowsiness,
fluid discharge from the eyes, in
voluntary twitching of the muscles,
numbness of limbs, incordinatiOn
of movement, staggering gait, in
ability to stand, dizziness, invol-
untary passing of urine and faces,
stopped rumination, dull express
sion from eyes, free flow of saliva
from mouth, partial or complete
paralysis of tongue and throat,
limbs and ears cold, weak heart
action, pupils dilated; all the
symptoms increase in intensity
until there is complete coma after
which death quickly ensues.
Antidotes:- Corn syrup in one
pint doses every thirty minutes.
Fresh air, and milk.
