< Domestic Encyclopædia (1802)

BLEND-WATER, also called more-hough, a distemper incident to black cattle, which proceeds either from the state of the animal's blood, from the yellows, or from the change of ground, which, if too hard, is apt to produce this evil. To cure it—Take one ounce of bole armenian, as much charcoal as will fill a small tea-cup; and three ounces of the rind of the oak: let the whole be reduced to a powder, and given to the animal in a quart of new milk.
