POISONOUS PLANTS

Five or six kinds of poisonous
plants on the open ranges of the west
ern states have cost the livestock in
dustry millions of dollars and
practical solution of this prepleNing
problem has not been found.
plants named in the order of their
supposed Importance are as follows:
two or three species of ''loco' weed.
five or six species of larkspur. death
cana, wild parsnip, lupin and wood
aster. 1t is claiuied that woody aster
the most deadly plant in Wyoming
for sheep and it is widely distributed
over the western states.
Getting rid of these poisonous
plants which cover millions of acres
seems impossible. Antidotes and
''cures" have little practical signitic-
ance for animals die when alone on
the range, or are wild and unmatl-
ageable.
About all that can be done by the
stockmen at this time is to learn to
identify the several species of poison
Gus plants, to know the time of the
year when each is most poisonous.
and range their livestock accordingly
