Rayless Coldenrod Poisonous

Washington, d. c., Sept. %. =
Following Investigations Of a live
stock ailment commonly kown
as "alkali disease" or milk sick
ness" the Uuited States Depart
ment of Agriculture has found
the rayless goldenrod to be the
probable cause. Experimental,
work with this plant produced
symptoms corresponding to those
characteristic of this disease.
Investigations by the department
included regions in New Mexico,
Texas ami Arizona, where ''al-
kali disease" has caused many
fatalities among domestic ami
mails. The rayless goldenrod is
known to botanists as "Isocoma
wrightii," In Ar.zona cattlemen
sometimes call it Jimmy weed. "
DIR. G. ID. Marsh, poisonous
plants specialist for the Bureau
of Animal Industry, has found
the plant to be poisonous to
cattle, sheep and horses.
Among cattle, typical symptoms
are drowsiness and weakness.
If the animals become excited or
attempt to travel far their motion
becomes jerky and their legs
seem to give way. Some are
unable to get up after falling.
The latest cattle are usually the
ones first affected.
