FIG. 341. Prickly Pear or Indian Fig (Opuntia vulgaris}, a prostrate, more or less spreading cactus, composed of flattened stems bearing very small, awl-shaped and decidu- ous leaves and short, yellowish-green bristles and occasionally solitary spines. The flowers are pale yellow, opening in the sunshine. The fruit is a succulent berry about 2.5 cm. long. Various of these cacti are used as food by the cattle, which often eat them with the bristles. Frequently the spines are burnt off by the cattlemen with the use of gasolene torches, so as to prevent the accumulation of spines in the stomachs of the cattle in the form of phyto-bezoars, which are globular accumulations of vegetable tissues. (.See p. 577-)~ After Troth.
