   Long ago the people used to have a great many more old cures than we have now. These are some of them. If anybody had a bad cut that person would not go to a doctor or a nurse to dress it as we do now but just put a leaf of tobacco on it. If anybody had a headache he would take a spoonful of baking soda and some hot water and mix both together and drink it. They used to take hot water and salt for a sore throat. If a cow or calf had ringworm the man who owned that beast would put tar on the spot where it was. A cure for warts was to get a snail and rub it on the wart then cover the snail with clay and never look for it again. Some people used to take soot for a bad toothache. Some bad disease the cattle used to have the people boiled brier roots for the beast to eat. If anybody got stung by a wasp that person rubbed blue on the sting and soem people do that yet.
