Have You Any Ideas as ~
To Who Is Right Here?
Now that St. Patrick’s day is past,!
it should be possible to bring up
the questions: “When is a sham-,
| rock not a shamrock?” and “What
I is a shamrock anyway?” without
provoking too heated a controversy*
j among partisans of various plants. |
I For, while nearly everybody
speaks of the shamrock as if it
were a specific plant, actually there
is considerable dispute as to what
particular plant is the true sham-;
rock, it is learned by consulting J.
Francis Macbride, associate curator
of the herbarium at Chicago Field
Museum. (Incidentally, as a Cale
| donian Macbride, and not a Hiber
nian Mcßride, he is severely neu
tral among the disputants.)
About half of the Irishmen, and,
about half of the other people who
have considered the matter, regard
the plant known as the wood sor
rel, which bears the scientific name
Oxalis acctosclla, as the true sham-i
rock. The other half just as vocif
erously vouch that the true sham
rock is the white clover, whose
botanical-Latin designation is Trifo-,
lium ropens. Another smaller school
of thought has claimed that the
rightful emblem of Eire is another
clover called Trifolium minus. Still
another asserts that the true sham
rock is the black medic whose more
esoteric designation is Medicago
lupulina, and half a dozen other
plants have adherents, among them
even the water cress.
Cows Are Allergic to
Garlic—Even Sniffing It
Garlic sniffing should be taboo for
the cow giving milk. How fast gar
lic flavor can get into milk when a
cow gets into a garlic patch is shown
by some studies made by the U. S.
department of agriculture.
A cow doesn’t even have to eat
the garlic to have her milk affected.
She need only smell it—or at least,
inhale it steadily for 10 minutes, as
she might when browsing a garlicky
| pasture. The milk will have a strong
l garlic flavor and odor two minutes
j after a cow inhales garlic for 10
minutes. Milk drawn 90 minutes
after such inhalation is free from
garlic flavor and odor.
Still faster is the effect of eating
the garlic. When cows were fed
half a pound of garlic experimental
ly, slight garlic flavor and odor were
detected in the milk one minute lat
er. The intensity of the garlic flavor
j and odor increased with the inter
i val following the feeding. In 10 min
| utes both were very strong, and
1 even after tour hours, the flavor and
! odor of the milk were still objec
tionable. Not until seven hours aft
i er the garlic feeding did the unde
* sirable flavor and odor disappear.
i
Insecticide Material
Sulphur and arsenic are probably
the oldest insecticides of which there
are records, Dr. H. L. Haller of the]
bureau of entomology and plant
quarantine, U. S. department of ag
riculture, declares in a report to the
American Chemical society on “The
Search for New Insecticides.”
Sulphur was mentioned by Homer
about 1,000 B. C. and the Chinese
used arsenic sulphides as early as
900 A. D., Dr. Haller points out. “A
variety of other materials such as
hot water, brine, lye, whitewash,
soap suds, vinegar, petroleum, tur
pentine, fish oil and decoctions of
aloes, pepper, soot, tobacco and
wormwood have also been used as
insecticidal agents for a long time,”
he continues.
“Arsenic and honey mixture was
recommended more than 250 years
ago for the control of ants. Tobacco
dust was advocated in France for
use against plant lice in 1690. Pyre
thrum or common insect powder and
derris have been used for more than
100 years.
j
i
Even Irish Agree
There is almost unity, at least, in
the fact that nearly all of the plants
for which the name shamrock is
claimed have three leaflets, and that
these leaves represent the symbol
ism of the shamrock, the story be
ing that St. Patrick chose the plant
to symbolize the Trinity. However,
even this is disputed, for example,
by the adherents of the water cress.
Some say the three leaves are em
blematic of love, valor and wit, three
charming traits of the Irish char
acter.
Perhaps it will be a shock to re
veal that the trefoil plant was held
sacred in Iran, and was emblematic
of the Persian triad, long before St.
| Patrick’s day; and that “shamrock”
j and “shamrakh” are Arabic words
I designating such plants. *
i A point brought out by those who
I acclaim the wood-sorrel as the true!
shamrock is that it is said usually
! to reach its growth perfection in
Ireland about St. Patrick’s day.j
which is not true of the white clover,,
01! From Seed of Thistle
Safflower belongs to the thistlfci
family and has been cultivated for
many years in India, Egypt, and
Europe as an oil-seed crop and as a
source of red dye obtained from the
flowers. An effort was made to in
troduce the crop into the Northern
Great Plains of the United States
about 15 years ago. Although satis
factory yields were obtained, the
crop has not become commercially
important. Safflower oil, which is<
obtained from the seed, is used for
edible and technical purposes. The
oil has good drying properties and;
is suitable for use in making paints,
varnishes, and linoleums, J
