    A Cure for Swollen Udder
    on a Cow.
    Into about a 1/2 bucket of hot water, pour about a 1/4 lb of cattle salts and stir them together until the salt is dissolved. Then with the solution of salts and water bathe the udder for about a 1/4 of an hour.
    Then get about two ounces of lard and rub it on. This should be done at least twice a day until the swelling goes down.
