Sheep find the lupine particularly
dangerous. This plant Gig. u grows
from one to two feet in height with
flowers of light blue or blue-violet.
All pods and seeds are poisonous in
the late summer or fall. Sheep suffer-
ing from lupine poisoning, show nerv-
BUSINESS and weakness. They become
unduly sleepy and suffer from partial
paralysis and are ultimately taken
with commissions which lead to death.
The zygandenus, or death camas
Gig. 81 is also particularly dangerous
to sheep, but it affects horses and cat
tie as well. All parts of the plant are
poisonous but the seed especially so.
Frothing at the mouth, vomiting,
trembling, with spasmodic gasping for
breath are symptoms of this poison.
ing. 1t is not unusual for the animal
to lie for days before death relieves
1t. The color of the flower is greenish
yellow, the plant growing from four
inches to one and one-half feet in
height.

selves with the appearance of these
plants and with the symptoms that
they cause it is believed that thew can

 Besides the usual reports of secre- tary and treasurer. given by Mrs, Will lis Austin and Mrs. Albert H. Chase, Mrs. Austin gave a fine report of the little campaign which was recently conducted i'll nearby towns by the three state workers with the assistance of the local league for two weeks. Her story of one days routine work in de- tail impressed one with the courage and efficiency of the workers in over coming many difficulties and priVations and proved that suffrage was not merely a fad.
 Plans for Later Meeting.
 Dr. E. E. Woodward told Of league plans for 8 meeting later this month at which pr. Bertha Hirsch Baurch, q native of Norwich, well known in suf- frage and other work in the west, will be the speaker. Every new speaker brings a different point of view which makes an appeal that reaches someone and the league is steadily increasing in membership as well as gaining friends and allies in their ~ntition to have the state legislature consider the cause of equal suffrage in Connecticut.
 France in War Time.
 After the business part of the meet ing. Mrs. Norton introduced Frank Edward Johnson, who gave a most in teresting talk on Conditions in France During War Time.

Last summer he saw thousands of soldiers leave home for the battle front and then saw the daily life of those who were left be- hind and realized that it was fully as hard for these as 1t was for the soldier on the firing line.
