POISON IVY AND sUMAc.

Poison ivy may appear in
various forms, but the three
telltsIe leaves identify il.
Not all varieties of poison ivy
bear fruit. Those that do have
whitish or cream-colored berries
resembling mistletoe.
Poison sumae, under various
aliases, grows only in swamps
or in wet ground.
Poison sumac has to 13
leaflets arranged in pairs along
each stalk, with a single leaflet
at the tip.
Poison sumac l. often con-
fused with elder, certain kinds
of ash, and various other shrubs
and trees bearing somewhat
similar foliage.
Its loose, dropping clusters of
flowers, followed by smooth
ivory-white fruits. are readily
distinguished from the densely
covered upright terminal spikes
of the harmless sumae.

cause they do not know how to recog-
n4ze or avoid the plant In its various
forms.
The poison-ivy plant Is also known
as poison oak and by various local
names, such as three-leaved ivy, poi
son creeper, climbing sumac, mark
weed, picry, and mercury. 1t grows
in the form of woody vines, trailing
shrubs, or low, erect bushes and adapts
itself to the greatest variety Of condi-
tions, flourishing in woods or In the
open, In low, moist soil or In dry soil
and on hillsides. It is especially abun-
dant along fence rows and at the
edges Of paths and rOadways, scram-
bling over rocks and walls, climbing
posts or trees to considerable heights,
often mixed with other shrnbbery in
such way as to escape notice until
its presence is made known by case
Of poisoning.
Poison ivy, or poison oak, Is found
In one or more forms in practically
all sections of the country. In lti
various forms the plant Is most readily
recognized by its leaves, which are
always divided into three leaflets, and
by its whitish waxy fruits. which lool
somewhat like mistletQe berries. All
varieties do not bear fruits, but when
discovered the whitish or eream-col
ored berries make recognition positive
Poison sumac is also known al
swamp sumac, poison elder, poisoE
ash, poison dogwoOd, and thunder
wood. II grows only in swamps or ii

n shrub In clumps with tall, slender
stems to 10 feet or more in height;
also frequently as a tree up to 20 or
~ feet high, with a trunk to 10
Inches In diameter.
The leaves Of poison sumac are d.
vided into 7 to 13 leaflets, arranged in
pairs with single leafiet at the end
The avoidance Of shrubs growing in
low land with leaves Of this general
character is a safe rule for persons
not well acquainted with poison sumac.
Poison sumac is often confused with
elder, certain kinds Of ash, and various
other shrubs and trees bearing some
what similar foliage; also with dog.
wood, to which 1t bears no resem-
blance. Its loose, dropping clusters of
flowers, followed by smooth, ivory
white fruits, are readily distinguished
from the densely covered upright ter
minal spikes of the harmless sumacs.
Other differences are readily notice
able, such as the wlng-like growth
along the margins of the leaf stalks
of the dwarf sumac and the hairy COW
erings of the leafstalks and twigs of
the staghorn sumac.
After exposure to poison Ivy, meas
ures to insure the removal of the pol
son ore Of primary Importance. At
first the poison is on the surface Of
the skin and may be removed by wash
ing with ordinary kitchen or laundry
soap and hot water. Care should be
taken, however, not to spread the pol
son by careless washing.
Mild cases of Ivy poisoning general
ly subsIde within q few days and do
not cause alarm. Fatal cases, how
ever, have occurred, and where the In
flammation is extensive or severe, a
physician should be consulted. In the
early stages of Ivy poisoning, remedies
having n fatty or oily base, such as
ointments, should not be used, as the
grease or oil tends tc dissolve and
spread the poison, say specialists of
the Department Of Agriculture. In
stead they advise simple remedies,
such as local application Of solutions
Of cooking soda or Of Epson salt, one
or two teaspoonfuls to a cupful of
water. Fluid extract Of grindelia, d.
luted with four to eight parts Of water
Is often used with success.
Solutions of this kind may be ap-
piled with light bandages or clean
cloths, which should be kept moist and
should be changed and discarded fire.
quently to avoid infection. During the
night, or when moist applications can.
not be used, the poisoned surfaces
should be carefully cleaned and dried
and left exposed to the air rather
than tightly bandaged. In the later
stage, after the toxic material has ex,
hausted itself, zinc-oxid ointment and
similar mild antIseptlcs and astrlngent
