Show Girl Sick after Sucking Dandelion Stem Dynamiting Fails Salt Work Picking Up Was She Poisoned? Al. Connell's little daughter was taken violently sick last week, going into convulsions and finally into fits. The little one had been sucking a dandelion stem, and it was thought that it might have been covered with the solution used in spraying orchards. There is a doubt concerning this, however. Concerning spraying the Provo Dispatch says: There is no danger connected with the spraying of trees : provided ordinary care is used. Do not let chickens or other animals drink the liquid. The amount tht drips to the grass is not sufficient to produce death. Certain sprayers in town yesterday ate goose berries freshly sprayed simply to prove to property owners that there is no harm from spraying. Last week, H. A. Andelin, while driving a well for Lon Higbee, mention of which has been made in these columns, attempted to break the rock encountered by means of dynamite. By mistake the dynamite exploded near the middle of the pipe, blowing it to pieces. A new beginning will now have to made.
