MANGIESIA Is A
ON RANGES OF IDAHO

Washington. June 30.-StOckmen in
the northwest are being warned by
the L.. S. Department of Agriculture
hat the plant Manziesia is poison
Gus and may kill sheep and cattle.
Menziesia is a struggling, branching
shrub which grows to be from three
to seven feet in height. In this coun-
try il is found in the Southern Ale
ghenies and in the mountains of
Northern California, Wyoming, Ore
gon, Idaho, and Washington. The
Rocky Mountain species which is the
one known to be poisonous. usually
occurs at attitudes of from $500 feet
TO 5000 feet on moist northern slopes
in open woods and about the
"balds." In some places it grows
%abundantly and on the other hand
there are long stretches in which no
specimens al all are 20 be found.
Stock poisoned by Menziesia ex-
hibit symptoms much like those caused
by a number of other plants. There
is a noticeable forthing at the mouth
and weakness which causes staggering
in the gait and ends in more or less
complete paralysis. There is usually
pronounced nausea and sometimes
difficulty in breathing. 1t is believed
however, that a considerable guam
tity of the plant must be eaten before
it's effects become dangerous.
Where there is abundance of other
fodder sheep will not eat Menziesia.
The trouble occurs when there is no
other food readily available. Thus
when sheep are driven rapidly along
narrow trails-where the plant is
most likely to abound-they are apt
to seize upon it and this is also true
when bedding grounds are used re-
peatedly and the healthy forage in
the neighborhood consequently ex-
hausted.
The remedy is for herdsmen to
learn to recognize the plant. A fur
Their investigation into the subject is
now being carried on but the depart
ment has already published a prelim-
mary pamphlet, "Menziesia, a New
Stock-Poisoning Plant of the North
western States" which contains a dc
scription and pictures of the plant.
The thin leaves of the shrub are one
to two inches long, and one-half to
one inch wide. The flowers grow from
terminal buds. expanding with the
leaves. They are bell shaped or cyl
indrical, about one-quarter inch broad
and pink to ~greenish white in color.

Buffalo Lake Correspondence

Some. time ago Mr.. Eichhorst
received word from Washington,
D. c., to send in another name
in place Of Minden, because Min
den and Mandan are somewhat
similar and might cause some
unnecessary trouble.
Yhe general opinion Of the
neighborhood seems to be that
the new town ought to be named
Eichhorst. Mr.. Eichhorst. has
lived in this country for the last.
nine years, and has been a credit
to the county ever since. For
the last six years MI. Echhorst'
has been trying to convience the
500 officials that a station would
be q: credit. TO both the county
and the people, but was ual-
successful until promising to
do all the necessary grading and
build an elevator, which he cheer.
fully did, in fact Mr.. Eichhorst
is the only live booster in this
vicinity.
Before Mr.. Eichhprst s friends
icould not convince him that the
new town ought to be named
latter him.
Word was received that the
name Schulz was sent in and APP
proved by the P. O. department.
This sure was a disappointment
to the people Of this vicinity.
Editors Comment The p. o.
Department has already named
the postoffice Schulz, in honor
Of the Schulz family leading
merchants Of Washburn. We have
no doubt that the 500 railway
company would change the name
Of the station to Schulz so as to
have the station and postoffice
agree ifsrequssted to do so.
