by the rod quickly vanishes. Glass written on with this ink is
etched immediately, and the etched portions are so beautifull}-
roughened that they are visible at a long- distance. The ink
only needs to act for (ifteen minutes on the glass, and a longer
action may be harmful, as the edges lo.se their sharpness. Irs
making good etching ink, the (juality of the barium sulphate
is of great consequence. It must be prepared by precipitating
the solution of a barium salt (the chloride) with an excess of
sulphuric acid, washing well by decantation. filtering, and
drying at 248" F. (120' C). It is onl}^ in this manner that it
can be obtained sufficiently fine and impalpable.
Concentrated hydrofluoric acid may cause serious inflamma-
tion and even ulcers if left in contact with the skin for some
time, so that care should be taken both in making and using'
the ink not to touch it with the fingers.
CHEIVilCAL GUANO.
Despite legislation and the passing of various measures,
relating to manures for the protection of the British agricul-
turist all the chemical manures are still not wholly genuine.
A factitious mixing for a guano, a good fertiliser, but still
only what may be regarded as an adulterated article is: —
Cwt.
Superphosphate ....... 8
Dry umber ........ 7
Chilian guano ....... o
These are to be well mixed and i-iddled together, using
water if necessary. Then fill into sacks.

Common rosin, melted with a little olive oil and turpentine,

330 MISCELLANEOUS PREPARATIONS.
"JACK FROST."
This is used foi" Christmas decorations, and upon the cloth-
ing at balls, parties, etc. In addition to powdered mica,
sublimed naphthalene is suitable. If naphthalene is boiled
in a pot with a cover, the fine downy deposit upon the lid
should be collected. It has a peculiar propert3^ of increasing,
as it apparently grows.
TO REMOVE GREASE SPOTS FROM MARBLE.
If the spots are fresh, rub them over with a piece of cloth
that has been dipped into pulverised china clay, repeating the
operation several times, and then Ijrush with soap and water.
When the spots are old brush with distilled water, and finest
French plaster energetically, then bleach with chloride of lime
that is put on a piece of white cloth. If the piece of marble
be small enough to admit of doing so, soak it for a few hours
in refined benzine.
TO POLISH PLATE GLASS.
Rub the surface gently with a clean pad of cotton wool, then
cover the pad with cotton velvet, charged with fine rouge, and
again rub the glass until it has ac(i[uired a beautiful bright
polish without scratches.
TO CLEAN STATUARY MARBLE.
2 oz. of carbonate of soda, in one quart of cold water, brush
the marble with a clean brush dipped in this solution, rinsing
constantly with clean water.
TO WRITE ON GLASS.
To make an ink that will write on glass, dissolve some
amuKJiiia fiuoride in water, and then mix it well with three
times its weight of barium sulphate.

All of the .solids are to be poured into an iron boiler con-

soon as the substances are dissolved the sulphuric acid must
be poured in little by little, until all the substances are
completely saturated. For the preparation of the wood, it
should be placed in a suitable apparatus and arranged in
various sizes (according to the purposes for which it is in-
tended) on iron gratings, care being taken that there is a
space of about half an inch between every two pieces of wood.
Th^ chemical compound is then pumped into the apparatus,
and as soon as the vacant spaces are tilled up it is boiled for
three hours. The wood Ls then taken out and laid on a wooden
grating in the open air to be rendered solid, after which it is
fit for uses of all kinds.

When your driers are ready, i.e., wlit-n they show bright on

tank to correspond with the weight of driers in the pan, mix
with the driers, give a good stirring, and then empty whilst
still hot into your boiling tank, keeping your air pum])
working vigorously all the time. Unless you want a very
dark oil, temperature should not exceed 320° F. For a tiv^e-
ton batch, an air pump with a ten-inch cylinder woulil be
ample; it should have an air-pipe delivery of 2h inches into
the oil; a 2^ inch steam coil would also be ample, and care
should be taken that no joints should be allowed inside the
tanks, as they are a constant source of annoyance and damage-
through leakage.
