BUCKEYE SPROUTS POISON HANCOCK (OUNTV ( ATTLE

Recently cleared land infested with buckeye sprouts is dangerous pasture for cattle, since feeding experiments have demonstrated that buckeye sprouts are poisonous and numerous cases of buckeye poisoning have been noted in Indiana, according to A. A. j Hansen of the Purdue Extension j staff. i A typical case this month occurred J on the John Sipe farm near Green- j field, Hancock county. Cattle that j had recently been turned into newly l cleared land became exceedingly ill | and the trouble was diagnossed by i Dr- N* W. Elsbury, the attending vet-! eninarian, as forage poisoning. An I examination of the pasture by a representative of the Purdue University Department of Agricultural Extension, revealed scores of sprouted buckeye stumps and the shoots showed evidence of having been heavily | grazed. The most prominent I symptom described by Dr. Elsbury | was the peculiar, high-stepping, gingerly pair of the forelegs, a symptom that has been frequently noted in other cases of buckeye poisoning . The poisonous principle influences the brain and also causes inflamation of the lining of the digestive tract and especially of the rectum

Soon after the oorers hatch, the woodpeckers find them beneath the bark of apple trees. The birds start right after the worms, continuing to drill for them as long as the borers are in the wood. In several orchards whore count was made 50 to 75 per cent of the borers had been d. stroyed by the woodpeckers, j The downy woodpecker and the hairy woodpecker are said to be the chief specie that feed on round-headed apple tree borers. * ' '

INTRODUCE DEM MY PLATFORM (Continued from page one) ic platforms are considered, provides for a* referendum on war. This was written into the platform by William J. Bryan. It would also amend the Constitution which gives the president the right to declare war with the consent of congress and place such power entirely in the hands of the people. The League of Nations proved to be the most troubles! me plank the committee had to wrestle with- The plank which has the general approval of the committee is a definite compromise between the ideas advanced by former Associate Justice Clark, of the Supreme Court and Owen D. Young, colleague of General Dawes onthe German reparations report. The league plank reaffirms Woodrow Wilson’s belief in the league as the most effective instrument to prevent war, and advocates a referendum .independent of any political election upon the question of America’s entrance into the league and world court The plank would safeguard this country’s interests through reservations pn the league covenant, upholding the Monroe doctrine and leaving the United States free from entanglement in foreign wars* , Senator Walsh of Massachusetts sponsored a plank which was adopted providing for government regulation of the anthracite coal industry and other necessaries of life when controll ed by monopilies. Another Walsh plank, which has long been urged by Senator Norris, Nebraska, would eliminate “lame ducks” from congressUnder the Constitutional amendment proposed, congress would assemble January 1, following elections instead of in December a year following, as now provided. Constitutional amendments would be submitted directly to the people instead of the legislature, under another plank adopted. That has also been urged by Republican progressives. The agricultural plank modeled on the general lines suggested by B. M. Baruch contains a number of reforms dsigned to increase the purchasing power of the farmer’s dollar. It promises to re-open foreign markets to the farmers, to adjust the tariff, to cut he cos of living and agricultural production, to lower freight rates, to create u co-operative marketing system and restore prosperity* The platform as tenatively drafted covers nearly forty subjects.

ROBINSON MAY RESIGN

WASHINGTON, June 26—Senator Joe Robinson, Arkansas, suspended from the Chevy Chase Country Club for punching Dr- James Mitchell in the eye on the golf links, may resign from the club, it was believed here today. While the Arkansas senator has refused to say anything about the incident which occurred when Mitchell and his party “drove through” Robinson and his colleagues, Senators Tom Walsh, Kendrick and Jones of New Mexico, he is known to feel that under similar provocation he would punch anybody, even Mitchell again. o TWO LOCAL LADS PINCHED When two lads were arrested in Inidanapolis several days ago, they gave their names as James Doyle and Paul Dodd. Marshall O'Hair was in Indianapolis Wednesday and instead of one of them being James Doyle, he was identified at Glenn Stamm, formerly of this city. The two boys were arrested by* the Indianapolis police on the charge of steading an automobil. Local officers went to Indianapolis in an attempt to trace the robbery of the Prevo store, but in a statement by Dodd, he said, “If I got 500 years I would not confess to the Prevo robbery, because I did not do it.” The boys stated to the Indianapolis court that they had featured in the theft of eight automobiles, having been at the work for two months. Both boys are former Greencastle young men0— — Mrs. Donald Connerly of Holland is here visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Walter Abaugh for several days.
