MANY ROBBERS ON THE FARM
Few Farmers Seem Capable of Check

Most any farmer knows how to

few seem capable of checking the

the farm.
In the summer time the farmers al
low the flies and the impure water

rial for fence construction being rur-
nished free of charge r. the forest
service The result of tAss work has
been to reduce the number of animals
lost through poisonous plants as com
pared to the numbers lost several
years previously.
Notwithstanding all precautions
which may be taken against poison
ing, losses from this source must be
expected. During the past several
years the bureau of plant industry
has been making a study of poisonous
plants and of antidotes. In the case
Of larkspur, for example, the bureau
has determined methods Of treatment
which are reasonably successful, un-
der normal conditions. The only diff
hculty has been that the animals suf-
ter1ng from poison are generally out
upon the open range and may not be
observed by their owners until it is
too late to apply an antidote. The
forest service has therefore arranged
TO meet this situation in an expert
mental way by equipping a limited
number of rangers with hypodermic
syringes and the necessary chemicals.
Armed with this equipment a forest
officer can in a few moments admin
lister a treatment which may save a
$40 steer.
