FOUR cows POISONED
Box Of Paris Green Spilled in a Lake
koronia Pasture

koronIo Pasture.
A very unusual thing happened last
Wednesday at c., I. Christlieb's near
Lake Koronis. He had been putting
Paris green on his potato vines to kill
the bugs. He left the patch to do
something else, expecting to return in
few minutes and left the box Of pois-
on setting in the patch a few feet from
the pasture fence. He did not return
to the patch as soon as he expected
to, in fact, not again that day. Next
morning he found one Of his cattle
dead In the yard and another very
sick. Upon investigation it was
found that they had reached through
the fence and rolled the box into the
pasture and either by biting or tramp
ing had opened the box and the poison
was spilled over considerable surface.
In an hour the second COW had died.
The Paynesville veterinarian had been
called and administered dose of
medicine to all the herd and it was
thought that all were out Of danger
but during the night two more were
taken sick and fingered between life
and death for some time, but finally
died. A veterinarian from Litchfield
was also called, but it was too late
to help the animals.-Litchfeld Inde-
pendent.
