with Dr. LeGear's Condition Powders, given in the usual size 

 doses morning and night in damp feed to purify the blood. The 

 best physic in a case of this kind is as follows: 



Powdered Barbadoes aloes 1 ounce. 



Powdered ginger 2 drams. 



Mix. 



The above can be made into a bolus with vaseline and put 

 back on the root of the tongue with the hand, or dissolved in 1 

 pint of warm water and given as a drench. Clip the hair closely 

 from the parts and wash off all the scabs and matter with castile 

 soap and water, and use a little carbolic acid (1 part to 40 of 

 water) to destroy the bad smell. Apply to the affected parts twice 

 per day Dr. LeGear's Healing Lotion, and dust well on to the 

 parts after putting on the Healing Lotion, Dr. LeGear's Screw 

 Worm Powder. If there is much fever and swelling in the parts, 

 put on a linseed meal poultice and change it twice per day. Mix 

 it up with warm water and tie it on with a soft cloth. Give 

 easily digested food, as bran, oats, chops, grass, etc. In mild 

 cases the Healing Lotion and Screw Worm Powder will gener- 

 ally effect a cure when applied according to directions. But in

 used, the latter is the best. Caustic potash is the best caustic to 

 use to remove the grapes, but blue stone, burnt alum, etc., may 

 be used instead; or use the following: 



White arsenic 2 drams. 



Vaseline 1 ounce. 



Mix, and apply occasionally to keep down the excessive 

 granulations (grapes).
