Many people have pets and many more already have the pleasure of keeping a garden.
DEER REPELLENT: Mix 1 /2 tablespoon of dried blood to each gallon of water. Use this as a spray to keep deer away from plants and shrubs. This will also work to keep rabbits from the garden area. Just spray around the edge of the garden. You can find dried blood at your garden store. It is a fertilizer made from evaporated blood and nonfatty refuse from slaughterhouses. (more…)

WORMING YOUR HORSE OR GOAT: They really start begging for this. Give each animal several non-filter cigarettes each week. Keeps them from getting worms.
WORMING SWINE: Leave small lumps of coal in the pen. They will eat what they need to keep worm free.
KEEP SWINE FROM BITING EACH OTHER: Pigs are intelligent animals and get bored easily unless they are kept busy. They may have a tendency to bite the tails off of each other. Put toys in the pen for them to play with. Give them things that they can push around and get rough with. Old tires are good playthings for them. Look around and I’m sure you can find different things that you can put in with them. (more…)
