Joe, YOU SHOULD NEVER let them git that bad!!!  Do I have ta take you out to the wood shed??!!
I wonder how well Neosporin would work?  Works GREAT for healing plain ole cuts fast.  I would bet it'd be a big +...
I'd bet you're REAL LOW on Vitamin D......  When my hands start to get like that, I take D supplements and fixes em right up.  I can tell cause my finger nails get real brittle and start to split and crack.  I can only remember once that I ever let mine get half as bad as yours.....that's gotta HURT!!

Remember when we used those pull type plows? At the end of the field you had to pull that danged trip rope? My fingers would crack in the joints pitiful Mom would take wool yarn and tie it right in the joint and they would cure right up. The strongest cherry soap you can find cleans better and keeps your hands in better shape. Joe, when spring comes, I'll fix some stuff and send it to you. You'll have to be careful not to put it on too heavy or you'll start sprouting fingers every which way. But you can make some money with them. Just clip them off and dry them, and sell them as pocket nose picks.  Leon

Mule Head Brand original red hand cleaner is the best stuff I've ever seen for cleaning up oily,grease soaked hands. You can wash greasy parts in gas(not good plan) and have that all soaked into the cracks etc and this stuff gets them Sunday morning clean. I have never found anything that cleans this well. Got this at the truck shop parts store. You need water to finish.

I dunno Steve.  I used to use Oxydol (before they banned it) and udder balm.  CLEAN as a whistle and then creamy smooth.  And I was ALWAYS in gas and oil.  I spose maybe that's way my hands are so callused and ugly today....
Oxydol was some of the BEST.... cleaned everything from clothes (intended use) to greasy hands, greasy floors at the gas station,  just about everything you could think of.  ALL EXCEPT THE COFFEE POT!!  Ask me about that one sometime when you see me!!!  It's worth a good 2 minute laugh!!

Hey Steve,,checked out the only'ist truck stop around here and they haven't heard of it. Ebay offers the Mule head cleaner in a gallon jar but the dang S&H is way too much,,it being so heavy,,!!
We are fixin to go to Dallas in next week or two,,so I be checking the bigger truck stops om I-20,,Thanks.
There is SO much of thet old timer stuff that used to be so good,,,and somebody told the guvment it wasn't any good for us,,,,the rest is history,,,
