Chew on a Southern Spined Ash tree branch and it will stop a tooth ache. I have always heard it referred to as Indian Toothache trees.
Another old saying we always used to go by was the signs. We always castrated hogs and cattle when the sign was right. Never have any surgery when the sign isn't right or you can bleed to death.
I can't stand a thief.

The ring on a string deal over your wrist works...my two girls were predicted as well as us doing it to several other couples we know. They all came out right.

Here's an oldie my Grandmaw would say about someone bragging on their kids or grandkids.
"Every old crow thinks his little uns are the blackest".
"Why do you ask"?
Always vote the slowest path to socialism.

When my mom (she's 90 now - that's unimportant but it shows how old this remedy is) was a little girl she got a wart on her index finger. The family maid, who had grandparents who were slaves (this remedy is supposed to come from slave folklore), mixed up a salve of a few kitchen ingredients and bacon grease. She covered the wart in the salve and then wrapped the hair from a horse's tail around it several times and tied it off. That was wrapped in a linen bandage and left untouched for 5 days. The wart fell off and never grew back. Calf dehorning paste will get rid of one in 10 minutes if you're a big enough boy to stand the pain for the last 7 minutes Dang, Fur! What the crap is in that stuff?

My grandmother would eat Vaseline for stomach ulcers and diverticulitis. I was sitting there one day as a teenager and she had a Sams size jar of Vaseline sitting on the counter. I made a comment on it and she said "Oh, that reminds me" and took a spoon and got a big scoop and swallowed it....
My mom and grandmother both put a fingerful of Vick's Salve in their mouth way back between their cheek and gums at bedtime to clear their sinuses while they slept.

My grandad would use horse liniment on his knees when they hurt.
Tomato juice bath for poison Ivy. Clorox bath for chiggers. I bet she was never constipated
