Categories: Viii Little Foes Of The Trailer

Pine tar 3 oz.

Olive (or castor oil) 2 oz.

Oil of pennyroyal 1 oz.

Citronella 1 oz.

Creosote 1 oz.

Camphor (pulverized) 1 oz.

Large tube of carbolated vaseline.



Heat the tar and oil, and add the other

Breck tells us that his dope was planned to be a counter-irritant after

being bitten as well as a preventer of bites.
