An Old Sugar Planters Cure FOR
Charb0n.

The following letter from Mr.. Hen
rv Gehl, manager of the Empire NICE
Mil Co., of New Orleans, to Mr.. Philip
Miller, contains information relatlVe
to the cure of charbon, which. II 1t
proves as effective for people OF this
locality as it seems to have done 1Or
Mr.. st. Martin, will be of inestlmaole
value to this region of country
While it may seem :too simple
remedy to be effective, yet, in spite OF
the fact that practically all other
remedies that have been tried for the
cure of charbon here, have proven in
effective, we would suggest that our
planters try this remedy at their earl
lest opportunity. And, in order to
give further light upon the subject, we
earnestly request anyone using this
treatment to report the results to this
Office, so that if it proves effective, we
may encourage others to use it.
New Orleans, La, June Il, 1910.
Mr.. Philip Miller,
Welsh, La,
Dear Sir: A sugar planter of years
of experience, Mr.. p. L. st. Martin,
who has had much experience with
stock, handed me today, the following
remedy for charbon, which disease is
prevalent in Southwest Louisiana.
He says the remedy is positively eff.
cacious and not detrimental to the
health of the animals to which it is
given. He has used the remedy him
self in many instances, and it has al
ways been successful in curing the an
imal of the disease,
Dose, pint beer bottle measure.
One-half Coal Oil.
One-half Water.

If first dose is not effective, repeat
in four to six hours,
If first dose is effective, animal will
Craze, if not, it is still unwell.
Mop the bumps and sores with the
following mixture:
Flax Seed Oil, one-half pint.
Coal Oil, twO-thirds of pint.
In extreme cases, where the animal
is swollen and apparently in the last
throes of death, there is still hope
that cure may be effected if the
whole body is washed with coal oil,
and as the body contains water,
which causes signs of sutfocation,
make small cuts to relieve the .animal
OF the water.
Yours very truly,
Henry Gehl.
