Poison.. ivy is a climbing or trail-

ters of three, aerial roots and green-
ish flowers, The berries are white and
waxy .eniooth. All parts of the plant
even when dried, contain an oil which'
soon after touching the skin .raises
a severe infianiation and produces
an intolerable itching. The poison
seems almost virulent when the plant
is blooming. People • often Confute
poison ivy with Virginia Creeper, the
two vines sometimes growing to-
gether. The latter, :however, have five
leaflets which lack the peculiar dark
green shade of the: poisonous_ plant.
When frequenting localities where
poison ivy rimy be found, either on
