  1. Old Cures

    Share Share Post
    The farsi usually effects horses ponies and asses. The old people had a cure for it. They used to get a wild plant called Woodbine and then they to cut a hole in the forehead of the animal and cross the woodbine in the cut and then used to stitch it with woolen thread and say some words while stitching it.
