At that time there was a great many rattlesnakes. I used to kill thirty or forty every year. A few years after my arrival two little boys were bitten, and after suffering for several days they died. At that time I had four little boys and two girls and I felt very uneasy for fear they would get bit; I was very particular to have them wear high shoes and high boots. In the course of two years I had two very fine colts bit on their nose; I thought I would try spirits of turpentine. Their heads were swollen very large back to their shoulder; they could not suck; I rubbed them three times with my hand as far as the swelling extended, between the hours of six o&#8217;clock and midnight. In the morning the swelling was all gone. The next year I had one of my best cows bitten on the end of her nose and her head was swollen back to her shoulders so she could hardly breathe. I rubbed her thoroughly with spirits of turpentine as far as the swelling extended, with the palm of my hand three times between 5 o&#8217;clock in the evening and 12 c&#8217;clock at night, and the next morning the swelling was all gone. I have had several bitten and always cured them in the same way. The milk for two or three days should be thrown into the vaults as it is very poisonous.<\/p>\n<!--CusAds0-->\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 Deacon Chas.
