POISONING BY LUPINES (LUPINUS
LEUCOPHYLLUS; L. SERICEUS; L. CYANEUS).
These plants are commonly known by the names blue pea, blue
bean, and wild bean. They are coarse, silky-haired perennial herbs,
with blue flowers arranged in conspicuous terminal racemes, which
blossom in June and July, with long-stemmed leaves, which are
divided into from seven to eleven leaflets radiating from a common
point. The fruit is a hairy, several-seeded pod, and the seeds are
small and somewhat flattened.
As a rule these plants do not occur in the flat river bottoms. They
occur most abundantly on the foothills and mountain ranges at
moderate elevations.
During the season of 1900 the lupines in Montana began to bloom
about May 20th, and the first full pods were collected on June 5th.
Lupines are not very extensively eaten by sheep during the spring
and summer, except when they are unusually hungry or are being
driven from one range to another. Lupines are more often eaten by
sheep in summer on the mountain sides, and in the fall and early
winter after early frosts have opened the pods and the seeds have
fallen out. Lupine hay is greedily eaten by all kinds of stock during
the winter, and large quantities of this hay have been fed for the past
fifteen or twenty years. Lupine hay is cut in different years at dates
ranging from the 1st of July to the middle of September. When cut
during the first half of July the newly ripe pods, full of seeds, are
secured in the hay. When, however, the harvesting of lupine hay is
postponed until September, the pods become ripe and split open,
and the majority of seeds fall out. A striking variation in the quantity
of pods containing seeds is noted during different years. During
seasons in which May and June are wet the quantity of pods is
usually large. When, however, these months are dry only a few pods
are found on each plant, and a vast majority of the flowers fail to be
fertilised.
Dr. Wilcox has observed that sheep are especially fond of the pods
of various leguminous plants before they become mature and while
they are still in a succulent condition.
Dr. Wilcox saw a flock of sheep which while being driven from one
range to another, in a hungry condition, was allowed to feed upon an
area of lupines in a nearly ripe condition. Within two hours the sheep
manifested violent symptoms of poisoning, and ultimately 100 out of
the lot of 200 died. He afterwards saw many hundreds of fatal cases
in sheep and a number in horses, both from eating green lupines and
lupine hay.
As an experiment two sheep were given each 150 medium-sized
lupine pods (L. leucophyllus) which were entirely full of ripe seeds.
The sheep ate the pods readily. Both sheep became frenzied within
about forty-five minutes after feeding upon the lupine pods, and died
about one hour later. The symptoms in these cases were the same as
those observed in poisoning under natural conditions.
The symptoms of lupine poisoning are so well known in Europe
that chronic lupine poisoning has been given the name lupinosis. It
is characterised by loss of appetite, fever, dyspnœa, constipation, and
yellowness of the visible mucous membranes. Diarrhœa, sometimes
of a sanguinolent type, appears later. The urine becomes
albuminous, tinted with bile products or stained red by hæmoglobin,
and the head shows œdema. Death occurs in a few days. In America
the chronic form has not been observed. In cases of lupine poisoning
in Montana there was noted acute cerebral congestion, accompanied
with mental excitement. The sheep rushed about in different
directions, butting one another and other objects. The first stage of
frenzy was soon followed by a second stage, characterised by
pronounced irregularity of movement, spasms, and falling fits. In the
majority of cases death occurred in from one-half to one and one-
half hours. In extensive cases of lupine poisoning it was uniformly
observed that a number of the sheep lingered on from two to four
days before they died. The muscular convulsions resembled those
caused by strychnine. The excretion of the kidneys was much
increased and frequently was bloody. Post-mortem examinations of
sheep poisoned by lupines revealed conditions similar to those in
acute forms of loco disease, with the addition of a congested
condition of the kidneys.

Solanum tuberosum.—The small, immature tubers of the
