To
cure
Wounds
in
Cattle.
When
horses,
cattle,
or
any
of
our
domestic
animals
are
wounded,
the
treatment
may
be
very
simple,
and
much
the
same
as
with
the
human
race.
It
is
extremely
improper
to
follow
a
practice
that
is
common
in
many
parts
of
the
country
among
far-
riers,
cow-doctors,
and
even
shepherds,
—
that
of
ap-
plying
to
the
wound,
or
putting
into
the
sore
part,
common
salt,
powder
of
blue
vitriol,
or
tar,
or
cloths
dipped
in
spirits,
as
brandy,
rum,
&c.,
or
turpentine,
or
any
other
stimulant
articles
;
for
all
such
very
much
increase
the
pain,
and
by
irritating
the
sore
may
increase
the
inflammation
even
to
the
length
of
inducing
mortification.
Though
the
treatment
may
be
varied
according
to
circumstances,
yet,
in
most
cases,
it
may
be
sufficient
to
take
notice
of
the
following
particulars
:
—
It
will
be
proper
to
wash
away
any
foulness
or
dirt
about
the
part,
and
to
examine
particularly
its
condition.
