A few years before I went to the south-
ern part of Colorado, where I first came
across loco, the weed was spreading so
rapidly there that the Government offered
a bounty for every ton of it dug up by the
roots, which was to be destroyed after
being weighed. This wise measure for
battling with the evil was frustrated bythe
greed of same of the 'Mexicans and lower
stamp of ranchmen, who, tempted by the
reward, actually cultivated the plant as a
profitable specula -non, until their unscrupu-
lous business was suspected, and it was
deemed expedient to take off the bounty,
as the amount of loco that was produced
seemed. incredible.
There are many theories afloat about
loco among Westerners. Some maintain
that it is not the plant at all that does the
mischief, but it tiny red worm that is found
only in its roots, and that animals that are
affected muse first, eat the root and swallow
tbe worm. One man will believe that this
worm attacks only the intestines, and
another will declare that it finds its vve.3. at

theory it is urged that botanical experts
have failed to discover anything supposed
to be injurious to cattle or horses in the
