SHEEP GET BIGHKAD FROM
EATING POISONOUS PLANTS
Coal oil brush and spineless
brush plants appear harmless, but
sciential* of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture find they
cause the western sheep disease,
"blghead", which brings heavy
losses each spring aa flocks are
driven from the winter range to
the lambing grounds. Sheep will
not eat these plants except when
feed Is scare, which often happens
on the trail.
Investigators of the Bureau of
Animal Industry learned that out-
breaks of “blghead” are common
where these plants grow and that
the plants are most poison out lb
the aprlng about the time sheep
are on trail. 8heep fed OB Mm
two plants developed typical “Mg*
head,” with symptoms midi ad
swelling and strained movements
of the head, and sensltlfoaaas to
sunlight
The Bureau will continue II*
Investigation of th* disease, mean*
time urging sheep men to alia*
the trails, if possible, so that
they will not pass near patch**
of the plants.
I THANK YOU!
T* these who for the past several yearn pntrwdxod the Texas
Market and Grocery, making my work both pleasant and
worth while, I wish to express my sincere appreciation, gad
to announce that all accounts incurred In the past are pp1*1*
to me. Although I nave not made definite plans for Mm
future, I hope shortly to again bo able to serve you.

reau of Animal Industry at the
National Agricultural Research
Odder, Heltavllle, Maryland, show
that the feed needed to muke 100
pound* of gain varies among lit-
ter* within n breed from about
8211 to more than flOO pounds. Simi-
larly, on Manttcal rations and
similar management, the time re-
quired by plga within a litter to
reach a weight of 220 pounds var-
ies a* much aa 100 days.

that not only appear to be good

to maka higher quality pork cheap-
