For Dogs, Cats

The following is an excellent powder for the removal of fleas from cats or dogs:

Naphthalene……………....             4 av. Ounces
Starch……………………...           12 av. Ounces

Reduce to fine powder. A few grains of lampblack added will impart a light gray color, and if desirable a few drops of oil of pennyroyal or eucalyptus will disguise the naphthalene odor.

Rub into the skin of the animal and let the powder remain for a day or two, when the same can be removed by combing or giving a bath, to which some infusion of quassia or quassia chips has been added. This treatment is equally efficient for liee and ticks.
