Book excerpt: Excerpt from Thirty Poisonous Plants of the United States This genus contains a large number of species, and it is quite probable that many of these should be considered to be poisonous where they grow over wide areas of pasture land, and are green at periods when there is but little green grass. Over a half dozen have been reported to the Department of Agriculture as highly detrimental to the stock industry.

Download or read book A Guide to the Poisonous Plants and Weed Seeds of Canada and the Northern United States Classic Reprint written by Robert Boyd Thomson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-21 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Guide to the Poisonous Plants and Weed Seeds of Canada and the Northern United States The illustrations are from photographs and drawings made especially for the book. By means of these and by the classification into the groups above referred to, it should be possible for an amateur to identify the plant responsible in an ordinary case of poisoning. No key based on botanical characters has been included, since such a key would be impracticable because of confusion with the numerous non-poisonous forms. At the end of the book, however, a symptoms key has been added. Such a key cannot, in the present state of our know ledge, be made precise. Its purpose is merely to facilitate diagnosis by suggesting the plants that should be looked for when certain symptoms are observed and plant poisoning is suspected.

This book was released on 2018-03-20 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cockleburs (Species of Xanthium) As Poisonous Plants Goff, 1894, makes the following statement: It has been said that the plant is poisonous to cattle, but this is probably a mistake. It is at least known that cattle sometimes eat sparingly of it without serious results. Maiden, 1895, speaking of the Xanthium spinosum, which in some localities is known as Bathurst bur, quotes Doctors Bancroft and Goff, but adds nothing to preceding information. In 1896 Maiden quotes Prof. J. 0. Arthur as stating in correspondence that in the United States the cockleburs do not have the reputation of being' poisonous, and goes on to say that he is convinced that whether ex tracts of the plant are poisonous or not it is not injurious in the field, and that he has investigated one case of supposed poisonous effect of Xanthium and found the trouble to be anthrax. Lewin, 1897, states that Xanthium spinosum in certain stages is poisonous and may kill 50 per cent of a herd.

Download or read book The Wild Wisdom of Weeds written by Katrina Blair and published by Chelsea Green Publishing. This book was released on 2014-10-07 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Wild Wisdom of Weeds is the only book on foraging and edible weeds to focus on the thirteen weeds found all over the world, each of which represents a complete food source and extensive medical pharmacy and first-aid kit. More than just a field guide to wild edibles, it is a global plan for human survival. When Katrina Blair was eleven she had a life-changing experience where wild plants spoke to her, beckoning her to become a champion of their cause. Since then she has spent months on end taking walkabouts in the wild, eating nothing but what she forages, and has become a wild-foods advocate, community activist, gardener, and chef, teaching and presenting internationally about foraging and the healthful lifestyle it promotes. Katrina Blair’s philosophy in The Wild Wisdom of Weeds is sobering, realistic, and ultimately optimistic. If we can open our eyes to see the wisdom found in these weeds right under our noses, instead of trying to eradicate an “invasive,” we will achieve true food security. The Wild Wisdom of Weeds is about healing ourselves both in body and in spirit, in an age where technology, commodity agriculture, and processed foods dictate the terms of our intelligence. But if we can become familiar with these thirteen edible survival weeds found all over the world, we will never go hungry, and we will become closer to our own wild human instincts—all the while enjoying the freshest, wildest, and most nutritious food there is. For free! The thirteen plants found growing in every region across the world are: dandelion, mallow, purslane, plantain, thistle, amaranth, dock, mustard, grass, chickweed, clover, lambsquarter, and knotweed. These special plants contribute to the regeneration of the earth while supporting the survival of our human species; they grow everywhere where human civilization exists, from the hottest deserts to the Arctic Circle, following the path of human disturbance. Indeed, the more humans disturb the earth and put our food supply at risk, the more these thirteen plants proliferate. It’s a survival plan for the ages. Including over one hundred unique recipes, Katrina Blair’s book teaches us how to prepare these wild plants from root to seed in soups, salads, slaws, crackers, pestos, seed breads, and seed butters; cereals, green powders, sauerkrauts, smoothies, and milks; first-aid concoctions such as tinctures, teas, salves, and soothers; self-care/beauty products including shampoo, mouthwash, toothpaste (and brush), face masks; and a lot more. Whether readers are based at home or traveling, this book aims to empower individuals to maintain a state of optimal health with minimal cost and effort.
