    6. "........ The white juice of the dandelion, shormán and chickweed can cure many diseases when taken as medicine. The Hemlock is a deadly poison. It often grows to a height of sex feet and a white flower grows upon it. It would kill man or beast, but no beast eats it on acount of its ugly taste and smell. Grlorán is a good food for pigs in Summer-time.
