Earaches and Burns

Growing up many years ago in a rural area we had many home remedies. For an ear ache we heat a dinner plate in the oven, wrap it in a towel and lie down with the infected ear resting on the towel and let the heat ease the pain.
For deep cuts we would pack the wound with chewing tobacco and bandage it, extremely little scarring from this remedy. Margarine works well on burns.
