It is frequently found in combination with other herbs in creams and salves to ease muscle soreness. As a seasoning, it works well with most foods. May be used together with sage as a natural preservative. Locating and Handling Purchase fresh or dried at the grocery store.

Caution Large amounts of the oil taken internally may irritate the stomach. Our garden Rosemary is so well known, that I need not describe it. It flowers in April and May with us, sometimes again in August. It is an herb of as great use with us in these days as any whatsoever, not only for physical but civil purposes. It helps a weak memory, and quickens the senses.
