- Cures for ringworm.
1. Black sulphur and linseed oil mixed will cure wingworm.
2. Put a poultice of hot starch on the patch of ringworm and it will be gone in a week.
- My father has a cure for anyone who gets hurt with irons. He takes the iron in his hands and looks at it and then leaves it up where no one will find it. The iron is never supposed to be taken back by its owner.
