[QUOTE="novatech, post: 679986, member: 5494"] Grandpa used vinegar. Uncle was more modern. He drenched them with some green stuff. No squeeze chutes or head gates, we just used nose tongs and snubbed them up to a post. The biggest problem was screw worms. We used a black tar called 62. Most all the calves were treated in the pasture. One man would rope the calf and treat it while the other kept the momma away. Horses were not just a pleasurable pet back then. Kerosene was used for cancer eye, pink eye, and wounds. We used powdered sulfur a lot for infections. [/QUOTE]
