Stanard, director of agriculture, warns. "Repeated tests have proven that this weed is poisonous tq cattle," he adds, "and there has been, down through the years, a heavy toll of human life attributed to this mysterious malady. History tells us that the mother of this staters most illustrious citizen, Abrahaqi Lincoln, died of milksick. The Lincoln family, according to tradition, moved to Illinois to escape the hazards that mjlksick presented. "Death from this cause, in recent years, is less frequent than formerly. Many plans have been employed to warn the public of this danger. Yet, deaths occasionally follow the use of milk from diseased cows grazing in woods pastures and the poisonous weed is given as the cause.
