PREVENTION OF POISONING

There are a number of obvious measures that may be taken to avoid losses from the poisoning of livestock. Ideally. if the poison- ous plants could- be cradicaled. these losses could be prevented However. eradication may not be

onomlcally feasible. if not, the area should be pastured with sale, a close watch being kept for symp- toms or habits of livestock that might indicate plant poisoning. Field observation will also indic- ate if the poisonous plants are being grazed in quantity. The risk to animals pasturing near plants as deadly as water hemlock. how ever. is so great that either the weed must be eradicated or the livestock fenced from the infested area.

It must be recognized that some growth condition may cause nor- mally valuable crop plants to be- come poisonous. To avoid this de- velopment they must be given the conditions under which they grow best. and they munt be harvested or fed in such a manner that they will not form toxic substances

Why an animal starts to at poisonous plants that it previous- ly has avoided is not known. We do know that live stock with insufficient salt. or with nutritive deficiencies. have abnormal appetites. and may be expected to explore the 'eeding value of plants. Likewise, when there is a lack of palatable for- age on the pasture. the animals

may graze on less desirable spec ies. This is often the case when animals eat young water hemlock plants in early spring or fall. More- over. weed controi-workcrs have found that livestock concentrate on herbage treated with 2, 4-d. They warn, however. that poison- ous species, if sprayed and not killed,may also become more pal- atable and a menace. A hungry animal is not as likely to be as selective in its diet as one that has already had the keened edge of its appetite satisfied. Sheepmen often allow their animals to fill up on good range before the sheep are taken through territory infest- ed with poisonous plants.

The following summarizes cer-

tain managemcnt practices tha will help to avoid livestock losse I. Keep animals well supplied with salt and other nutritive sup- plements. 2. Maintain good pas- turage and do not overgraze. 3. Eradicate or ICIK in the more troublesome poisonous plants. 4. Observe the precautions necessa ,y to avoid bloat. etc.. from the pas- turing of clovers. 5. Watch for spoilage of hay and other food ma- terials such as silage. 6. Learn to recognize potentially poisonous plants. if poisonous plants are present watch for evidence of their being grazed, for symptoms of poisoning. or for unusual habits of livestock. 7. Woorllots and swam- py areas contain most of our nat- ive -poisonous plants. It is also rec-

ognized that they are very unsuit- (Continued on page 10)

Suggests Porpoises As Sheep Dogs Of Sea 50 Years Hence

PARIS (Reuters) - A pronTin- ent American scientist, Dr. Athei- stan Spilhaus. Wednesday forecast that some 50 years from how men will talk" to porpoises.

He said he knew of an Ameri- can scientist now at work on the problem-studying porpoise noises in an effort to find means of com- municating with them and then teaching them a trade.

"it is not much of a dream," he said. "to expect that we shall train porpoises as fish herdcrs in he some way as dogs are used as sheep herders."

Why? As man diverts the riv- vers of the world to his own purposes. Dr. Spilhaus said. fish will lose much of their food sup-

ROCKS FOR FUEL

Dr. Spillmus. a member of the United Nations Educational. Sci- entlfic. and Cultural Organizations board of research. also forecast using rock for fuel.

it had been estimated that half of the world's common rock could be used as fuel.-

He also predicted using ice- bergs to water arid lands. con- trolling rains to bring growth to deserts and to prevent monsoons.

"You can't stop man from thinking." he said. "In 50 years we will be able to control the en- vironment of our planet to make great regions of the earth hab- liable."

UNESCO's great problem would be how to oresnrve human values In an "artificial" world.

"No Contact Whatsoever" Says Duke Of Windsor

PARIS (AP) - The Duke of Windsor said Sunday he had no communications or contact what- soever" with Walter Schellenberg. a high-ranking Nazi who, accord- ing to published reports, planned toooffer him a large sum of money if he would go over to the Ger- mans in 1940.

The duke. in a prepared state- ment, said:

"I have not read the newspaper reports of Nazi intrigue which are supposed to concern me. No doubt the Schellenbers of Hitler's re- gime had all kinds of devious schemes in the back of their minds.

"I have only this to s5y. I had no communication or contacts whatsoever with Schellenberg. nor for that matter did I ever hear

I of him until this alleged matter developed. As for Nazi Foreign Minister Joachim von Ricoch- capacity and never saw him after 1937."
