[QUOTE="backhoeboogie, post: 679347, member: 3162"] Cedar oil was a good use too but it was used sparingly. People burned off pastures and yards a lot - a whole lot - way back when. You also have to bear in mind what the dust bowl did. There is a lot of vegetation growing here (in Texas) that did not grow here prior to the dust bowl. A case in point is the armadillo. It did not live in Texas then. It migrated in with the vegetation that migrated north out of Mexico. There are a lot of old stories about people seeing them for the first time in this part of Texas. There weren't as many sale barns, transit situations etc. Less exposure. Dairies were not run mechanically. There were less dairy cows on a single dairy and more of them. Most of the cattle folks had a milk cow. There were not vets in every town. Animals sounded as if they had more resistance and were more hardy. The were climatized. [/QUOTE]
