CATTLE VICTIMS OF LARKsPUR.
This Weed Most PrOfuse i'm the Tongue

Cattle Die As Result.

The I. $. Forestry office here has
been receiving n number of reports of
loss Of cattle from larkspur poisoning,
says the Sheridan Post. The poison APP
pears in all outlying districts, but it
seems 10 he heavier in the Tongue
river district. Larkspur is n form of
poisonous weed which grows from three
to seven inches tall. 1t does not grow
in patches by itself but is scattered pro-
fusely thru acres of grazing land. and it

1t car he identified by II small purple
flower. which grows in clusters on the
weed after it has reached full growth.
While the plant does not agree with
horses. it is not fatal to them. as it is
to both cattle and sheep. 1t appears
thickest after a wet season. and some
seasons it does not appear at all. This
year it, BIAS killed over one hundred
head of cattle in the Tongue river dis
trict alone, most of the cattle being
full grown steers. After the cattle
have eaten the weed. they fall forward
on their heads. and die from suffoca-
tion. In a number of cases the owners
have arrived in time to change the DO
sition of the animals head to enable
them to get more air into their lungs.
and have thereby saved them.
This is giving he ranchers some
little concern, as there seems to be no
way of checking the ravages of this
poisonous weed. The season will be
over shortly, however. and they are
bending every effort to keep their herds
away from the weed until after that
