POISON IVY IS WORST AS ITS LEAVES EXPAND Best Treatment Held to Be Iron Chloride, in Radio Talk by Scientist. ffif B+rtir* CHICAGO, Mav 6.—Poison ivy i* at its worst when its leaves are young and Juat expanding. At least it i* in the early spring that the most cases of ivy poisoning occur. This, of course, may he due partly ♦o the fact that, people do not recognize the plant and. therefore, fail to avoid it as they do later, said James B McNair of the FielQ Museum of Natural Historv, in a radio talk given today under auspices of Science Service. The talk went on the air over the network of the Columbia Broadcasting system. McNair denied the old notion that poison ivy is most venomous when it is in bloom, and also the belief that It* pollen Is poisonous. The pollen of poison ivy, he said, has none of the poisonous material in it, and even if it had. it could not do any mischief at, a distance, for it is a sticky pollen of the type borne by insects, not the dry, powdery type adapted for wind transportation. Poison Is Kind of Resin The real poison of poison ivy. McNair said, is a kind of resin, that travels through the stem and out into the leaves in a series of special tubes, and not in the general sap stream. Some of this resinous stuff has to reach the skin before poisoning can occur. It can not travel through the air in any way; although persons who have not touched poison ivy still ran be poisoned by contact with garden tools or other articles that have been brushed through its leaves. People vary greatly in their suseeptibility to Ivy poisoning. McNair stated, and some fortunates are apparently quite immune to any ordinary contact. Many remedies have been proposed, but the one ne recommended is a solution of an iron salt. Iron Chloride Is Preventive “The best and most effective preventive proves to be iron chloride, which completely neutralizes the poison, though is effective as a remedv only if used in the very early stages.” he said. "The use of iron chloride to the extent of 5 per cent in a half and half mixture of alcohol and water is recommended. “If the hands and face are bathed freely in this solution, either before or immediately after one goes into a region known to contain poison ivy or its kindred plants, no til effects need be expected. “The remedy is cheap, is easily obtainable at any drug store, is nonpoisonous and safe."
