Its prevalence is probably caused by the unusual amount of rain the past season, as old plainsmen will tell us it is always more plenty in wet seasons. Many also think the cattle and horses eat it more readily this winter on account of the range being somwhat damaged by the late rains, and that the green loco attracts the stock.--Territorial Advocate. ==== KS-FOOTSTEPS Mailing List ==== File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/ks/seward/newspapers/locoweed214nw.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.poppet.org/ksfiles/ File size: 1.1 Kb
