HORSES AND SHEEP NOT
POISONED Bl LARkSPUR

Larkspur is the most dangerous
poison weed that grows in Western
United States, excepting loco weed.
Farmers Bulletin, 9SS, U. s. Depart
ment Of Agriculture, is a summary Of
a long and painstaking investigation
on larkspur poisoning by Dr.C.Dwight
Marsh, and his assistants. The con-
clusion reached is that there is loss
annually in cattle of from 8 to 5 per
cent and that the loss in sheep is prac-
tically nil.
Horses are poisoned by larkspur if
they eat considerable quantity but
on the open range they never eat
enough to hurt them. Sheep are de-
clared to be immune to larkspur pois-
oning. The period of greatest pois-
oning is May aud June for both tall
and low larkspur.
The only preventive measure rec
commended is the use of drift fences"
to keep cattle away from larkspur in
Tested areas.

so that every feature of the racing
trains course might be sought. At
the point selected for the wreck, a
box car was chained to the railroad
track, and engineers figured that
when the locomotive struck the OBJ
struction it would turn. fall down
sharp grade and explode. In line
with the box car was a photographer
on a 2S-foot platform to catch the
crash. Down at the base of the
steep embankment was another in q
trench to catch the explosion of the
engine among the wreckage. But
plans went awry.
When the engine struck the box
car, it did not stop but plowed
through the smass and the instant
the operator near the track caught
his section, he leaped, landing in
two feet of mud, thus saving his
life. Instead of turning backward
and rolling down the embankment,
the engine made plunge at the dug
out in which an operator was con-
cealed. He ran up a ladder just in
time to escape the weight of the
mammoth machine as 1t crushed into
his trench. The engine failed to eX-
plode as was planned, but even be-
fore the danger was past photogra PHI

RISK DEATH TO
MAKE PICTURES
Film Shooters Take All
Kinds of Chances at Their
Work

New York.-Thrilling scenes re-
produced on the moving picture
screen always are obtained at the
risk of the lives of some daring pho
tographers who are willing to take
all manner of chances in order to
obtain correct exposures. When the
people in the theater see an engi-
neer jumping from a locomotive and
the speeding engine plunge to de-
struction, accompanying the thrill of
excitement that starts every heart
jumping comes the thought that
danger is over. 1t never occurs to
q single individual that danger has
just begun for the camera man, to-
ward whom that runaway locomo-
tive is racing at record speed, and
that he may not leave his post until
his position is rendered absolutely
unsafe ana it is impossible to make
more exposures.
An indication of the manner in
which producers look at the lives of
their film shooters is shown in the
fact that every man is insured for
$4,000 before each risky operation.
Usually the insurance is not col
lected, but narrow escapes are al
most as numerous as are staged
thrillers.
