[717] Generally the same ideas prevail regarding diseases of cattle as in the case of human ailments. Doras or magical threads and slips of paper are often used in cases of fever. In epidemics like cholera pollution is believed to be at the root of the evil. Bhangis are engaged to prepare images of corn to keep off the disease, and they forfeit their homesteads and property if the epidemic is not checked thereby.--The Schoolmaster of Barton Female Training College, Rajkot.
