A Manual of Poisonous Plants

During the last decade there has been much interest manifested in regard to plants injurious to live stock. Numerous contributions have been made along this line notably by Dr. Chesnut formerly of the United States Department of Agriculture Drs. True and Wilcox and their co-workers also of Washington Dr. Schaffner of the Ohio State University Dr. Jones of the Vermont Agriculture Experiment Station Dr. Kennedy of the Nevada Experiment Station Dr. Nelson of the Wyoming Station Dr. Nelson of Washington and Drs. Peters and Bessey of Nebraska. Other station botanists have also contributed to the same line of work. Much of the literature is scattered however hence an effort has been made to bring together in the following pages the results obtained.
