U.S.. ADVISES VICTIMS
OF POISON IVY

The department of agriculture rec
omnfends that persons sensitive to lFY
poisoning not only avoid touching the
plant but also use care in handling ar
ticles that may have been in eontacr
with it. Contaminated shoes, clothing
or tools are sources of poisoning some
times overlooked, as are also animals
that have access to poison ivy patches.
After exposure to poison ivy, the
poison is at first on the surface of the
skin and can be removed by thorough
washing and rinsing repeated several
times. Careless Washing however,
may serve to spread the poison. Ordin-
ary kitchen or laundry soap that con
tains much alkali is best for the pur-
pose and hot water should be used
The soap should be used freely, so as
to produce heavy lather on the ex-
posed surfaces, then rinsed off COM
pletely the operation being repeated not
less than three or four times. Running
water is preferable, or, if a basin is
used, the water should be changed FIRE
quently The hands, especially the fin
ger nails, should receive particular at
tention, in order TO remove traces OF
the poison that they may harbor and
transfer to other parts of the body.
Hard scrubbing with a stiff brush is
not advised, as it may serve to rub in
the poison and stir up infection, but
there is no objection to wash rags, pro-
vided several are used and each dis
carded in turn.

dies, such as local applications of solu-
tions Of cooking soda or Epson salts,
one or two heaping teaspoons to cup
of water, are generally as helpful as
any. Fluid extract of grindelia, dilut-

often used. Solutions of this kind may
be applied with light bandages or clean
cloths, which should be kept moist and
should also be changed and discarded
frequently in order to avoid infection.
