POISONOUS SNAKES OF TEXAS AND FIRST AID TREATMENT OF THEIR BITES
Reading edition
It is widely known among snake bite authorities that more persons die from snake bite in Texas than in any other state of the nation. This startling fact should encourage every Texan to obtain a thorough working knowledge of the correct first aid treatment for snake bite so he will be prepared to act promptly in the event of an emergency. In addition, and perhaps just as important, he should learn how to prevent a bite before it can happen. This means knowing where to expect poisonous snakes, how to avoid them, and how to identify on sight the venomous kinds found in the region where he lives.
