n
After a rather unsuccessful be-
ginning this season the local ball
team finally chalked up thein" first
win et the season last Friday night,
when they defeated the .Goderich
club 8-3. This was the locals' first
win in five starts, including four
league games and an exhibition
g g s n
game. Their downfall has been
mainly due to errors _ in the infield,
but s showed 'some improvement
ro•.emen
this wd o ear v t
'p
in the Gode ich game, and together
With nice pitching by Carrick, they
showed something of the baseball
ability that won them a champion-
ship last year—plenty of room for
improvement yet.
The game featured two home runs.
by the locals, Glew and Wagg con-
necting for the circuit blows, Three
runs in the first started the locals on
the roa • t victory and theyadded
d a ry
five more during the remainder of
the game.
We hope this game is an indication
of what is going to happen in the
future: The Luoknow club is sched-
uled for here tonight, providing the
diamond is' in any land off playing
condition. If the rain continues en
into the afternoon a game will be
impossible. .,
Clinton plays in Kincardine on
Saturday and again in Goderich next
Tuesday.
Be on hand for all future games
to see the locals kneels the ball for a

A DEADLY WEED
Mr. E. Ellis of the Base Line had
the misfortune last week to lose
three head of cattle which were on
pasture. Dr. Evans said it was
vegetable poison but the
source a was. mystery a in-
vestigation
an d u
vestigation svns made. Mr. Tan Mac-
Leod, Agricultural Representative,
took with him Mr, T. H. Livingston,
who has a considerable knowledge of
weeds and plants, and they discover-
ed what Moe Livingston said were
specimens of water hemlock growing
near the river. A sample was sent
away for identification and word was
received that this was the cases There
is no doubt that this was the cause
of the death of the cattle and may
have, been the cause'of other deaths
in cattle herds last summer. A.
specimen of the plant as on exhibi-
tion in the window of the Agricul-
tural offices so that any cattleman
who wishes to :become familiar with
this deadly weed may see it.
Water hemilook and poison hem-
lock, there is a slight difference, are
deadly poison to man and beast, and
there seems to be no known antidote.
Wlhen cattle eat it they seem to he
doomed. It, or some allied plant,
was no doubt used to make the fatal
draughti
which the ancient 'Socrates
drank: in the long ago, when its'poi-
sonous nature was as well known as
today.

plant along the river banks and far-
mers would do well to search it out.
It appears that some years ' ago the
late John Ranaford - lost same cattle
from poisoning and the inference
now is that this was the source, al-
though not ,suspected at the time.
Mr. Ellis is fencing off the part
of the pasture which is infested, but
others would need to be looking to
their .premises and if the weed can
be eradicated entirely it would he
in theinterests of all concerned to
have it done.
