% u.P)-What makes the loco weed
drive livestock loco" or crazy, has
been determined by DR.. G. S. Traps
and z. c. Carlyle.
The two attaches Of the Texas
agricultural experiment station here
have isolated the poisonous principal
Of the weed
They expect their experiments
viii help in combating the plant,
which has caused untold havoc
among herds. The work was car
ried on jointly with the Depart
ment Of Agriculture.
Extracts from the loco weed,
which abounds in the Rocky Noun
tain grazing region, Mexico and
portions Of Texas. were taken and
separated chemically.
Portions Of the extract were ad-
ministered to livestock until the
poison was isolated. The final ex-
tract was named locoine. It is q
tartrate.
Experiments showed that toxic
effects on the horse is much more
pronounced than on cattle, sheep or
goats. Only 30 per cent Of the
horses weight in green loco weed is
sufficient to cause death. Cattle
must consume 30 per cent Of their
weight before effects are noticeable
and much more to produce death.
