If it were red I would guess it to be my daily multi-vitamin tablet.

I guess every kid who grew up around cattle has either done that or has certainly thought about it....

Those kids will have an immune system more powerful than Superman, because the cows, horses, sheep, and goats all got to that block first!

Looks like a splitting mall, an old washtub
And a little boy wearing his sisters boots licking a salt lick.

I preferred the blue although white or red would do in a pinch.😄

Hmmm. Perhaps that’s why I never catch any of the annual flu bugs that go around. Hope it rings true for the C 19.

An older friend talked a lot of about the "Dirty Thirties" .He said they had livestock salt on the kitchen table, cheaper.
That would have been rock salt.

The old photo is a bit blurry. That maul makes me wonder if that's a chopping block instead of a washtub. It might have a lip around it, though. I can't tell.

I licked a few of those as a kid back in the 1950s.

Not a hatchet. It's a splitting maul and that tub behind it is what normally the salt or mineral block will sit in. The ones you see today are made from recycled t ires and they are tough as bus station steaks.

We used to knock a chunk off of em. Carry it in our pocket.

Worst I ever did was lick the molasses mill. Only once! 🤣

I screwed with my cousin for a few years. Convinced him they were giant urinal tablets used to train free range cattle to pee in certain spots out on the range. Poor kid amazing he grew up to be so level headed as much as me and my brother f'd with him.

Remember fishing in the creek at the ranch as a boy. We caught a good mess of fish, and fried them up, then realized we had forgot the salt! frown

Grandad's salt lick was a couple hundred yards away, so I trotted over there and shaved off a handful with my pocket knife.

Problem solved! Sulpher salt, no less. grin
