This salve is excellent for all sores and bruises and is particularly good also as a veterinary aid for softening the udders of newly calved cows, or for sore teats. Its healing properties are remarkable
1 lb of home rendered pure lard
I good handful of each of the following:
- Elderflowers
- Wormwood
- Groundsel
Cut the herbs into 1in lengths. Put them into an earthenware pot with the lard and place in a hot oven. Let simmer for ½ hour. Then strain into pots and tie down when cool. This salve can be made from dried herbs but is better used with fresh.
