IR V IN Q K I N Q CURE FOR HOOF DISEASE H O U L D any of your “horned cut- lie" become allllcted with a hoof disease watch what purt of the tu rf the cow steps on, dig It up. tie It with a cord and hang It In the open ulr. As the piece of tu rf wastes away under the action of the weather so will the disease disappear from the hoof of your cow. This “cure" Is exceedingly popular In England and enjoys n considerable reputation In Cunudu and the Halted States. It Is prim itive magic In Ils simplest form. Sir James Frazer calls It “the contagious magic o f footprints," The old Norse heroes, when they wished to form n lasting bond of friendship, sprinkled each other's footprints with blood druwn from their own veins nnd the snvnge. Today the snvape will throw Ids spear Into the footprints of an enemy whom he wishes to Injure. In southern Europe a good wny to avoid the Inlluence of the “evil eye” Is to stick sume shurp-polnted tnstru ment Into the footprints of the person suspected o f possessing thnt huleful attribute. The negroes "down South" say thnt a "conjurer" esn "work a man m ischief' l.y digging up Ills foot prints and “conjuring" over them. Marian Boulfe Cox, In “ An Introduc tion to Folk-Lore," speaks of an old practice among the Germans of “cut ting out the piece of tu rf whereon a person to he destroyed bus stood uud hanging It In the chimney thut he may perish us Ills footprints dry and shrivel." Prim itive man conceived a close re lation existing between a man and Ills footprints. It was like the relation existing between a man and his shadow and wlinl was done to the one reacted upon the other. Thus the disease demon (w ith prim itive man all discuses were evil spirits) In the cow's hoof having left a purt of him self by contagious magic ou the piece of tu rf trod on by the cow, It nnturully follows thnt when Hint piece of tu rf disintegrates the dlsense demon will disintegrate, too.
