Prussic acid, the most deadly OF poi
sons, was responsible for the killing,
in the brief time of twenty minutes,
Of folty-six fat young cattle owned
by T. T. Miller, after they had brok-
en- into a field Of young milo maize.
About 700 cattle were in pasture,
and next to the pasture was about an
acre Of milo maize which was just
about an inch or two above the ground
The forty-six found break in the
fence and, getting over, began to
MUNICH the tender milo. The hot sun
haa partially wilted the young plants
and, according to the veterinary who
was called-Dr. Pace-this developed
the deadly poison that is found IN al
young sorghums.
The cattle had eaten but small
quantity when discovered, and they
dropped dead, falling like tenpins.
before man in charge could drive
them away B. l.. Roberts, in charge
of the Miller ranch, estimates that
there could not have been more than
fifty pounds of milo on the entire
acre, as it was not visible from
short distance when looking over the
field.
The cattle loss will reach $4,000.
Mr. Roberts said yesterday afternoon
that he wanted to have all stockmen
know of the incident, in order that
they could avoid similar loss and
trouble. Dr.. J. c. Pace made a SINH
lar request.
In discussing the matter, DR.. Pace
sounded a warning to stockmen to ex-
ercise the greatest care to prevent
their stock from getting into young
milo or, in fact, any of the sorghums.
for all of them produce killing guam
! titles of prussic acid under certain con-
ditions, and a pound of the young milo
on other sorghums is so impregnated
with it as to cause death almost in
! ist~ntly. In fact, according to au-
thorities, this is the most deadly
poison known and causes death in
few seconds.
. DR. Pace further said that he be-
/ lieved that it would be found that
Sudan grass when young was also
dangerous, as was also Johnson grass.
He was emphatic when he asked thtat
stockmen be warned of the danger in
this direction and advised to use the
greatest caution.
The dead cattle, which were about
a year and half old, were skinned
yesterday and the carcasses hauled
10 the sandhiiis and buried.

sixteen local musicians, urging
the city to lend its support TO the
