SAN FRANCISCO. Oct ,. - Col legiate football virtually was in full swing throughout the west today, with coaches still busily engaged in sift- ing players and smoothing plays for the bigger games of the near future Practice games thus far have given the bleachers no particularly scintilat- ing stars whose names they might bracket in their wells.

Cane and Kafir Dangerous

OeS.eS ~~..>~ e>s~.AA
This is the time of year when poison
ing from cane and kafir corn is most
liable to occur. Prussic acid, or as it is
sometimes called, hydrocyanic acid, is
generally conceded to be the most deadly
of poisons and it is developed in cane,
kafir corn, johnson grass. the leaves of
wild cherry and no doubt in some other
plants, when the conditions are just
right. Cane and kafir corn are most
dangerous when eaten green just before
frost and especially when they have
made stunted growth from lack of
moisture. The dried stalks seem to
never poison animals.
The poison develops very quickly
after the green corn is eaten and in
some instances the animal almost drops
dead in its traks. Cattle and sheep are
most susceptible to poisoning and rarely
if ever are horses affected. Both
chemical and physiological antidotes are
out of the question in most cases because
There is special danger in turning cattle
into cane and kafir corn fields until the
corn has been cured from frost or cut
and cured in the shock. Geo. H. Glover,
