Tom bought this book at a thrift store the other day.  There is no date on this print, but the original one is from 1820.

There is a cure for whooping cough which is somewhat fascinating.

There is another for rabies.

There is a recipe for getting chickens to lay more eggs.

And another to get sheep to grow more wool.

In unrelated news, here are the homegrown peaches that I canned this morning.
