in Alabama with friend of mine, and
while up there learned something

that, I saw practical demonstrations
of the efficacy of salt as cure for
snake bite.
"By the way, the crop of rattle
snakes in Alabama is larger this year
than ever before in the history of the
state, and that is saying a good deal,
for it has been long time since there
was anything but big crop of rattlers

one in that part of the country when
they go into the woods will carry a
small bag of salt along in order to pro-
tect themselves against snake bite.
Snakes are so plentiful that they
never know when they will be attack
ed by one of these members, and SO
they go prepared for an emergency.

after its application it will draw the
poison out of the body. / knew that
salt was frequently used to draw
stains out of soicd linen and things

good for snake bites is a new thing for
