My old horse trainer made her own medicines for doctoring horses... Her favorite ingredient was sulfer powder... mixed with lard and a little liniment and it would heal just about any cut... on horses.

daddy used it on dogs, would mix it with used motor oil to keep the dogs from getting mange, he always had a bunch of deer running dogs and one setter for quail, probably also kept fleas off of them

dad drank all week... at lunch time he would have a couple of double burbons then go back and operate machinery... By then he was a supervisor....

His heavy drinking days was when he was a Design engineer at Maxwell Labs. He could out calculate the physicists before they got done explaining what needed to be done. With a pad of paper and a watch calculator...

before digitial stuff.

Dad flew planes... built them and repaired them starting at around sixteen. Did some Crazy A stuff ... Loops around telephone wires... Buzzing the Field hands ... till someone threw a tomato crate and hit his Bi plane...

Or racing his motorcycle on the salt flats...
