In preparing this wash the lime was started to slake with six 
gallons of water; and, as soon as the slaking commenced the 
sulphur, which had just previously been made into a thin paste 
with hot water, was added and thoroughly mixed in with the 
slaking lime. To prolong the boiling of the wash, the caustic 
soda was then used, with water as needed, and the whole mixture 
was kept thoroughly stirred. As soon as the chemical action 
had ceased the required amount of water was added, when the 
mixture was ready for use. The soda used in the preparation 
of this wash is a powdered 74 per ct. caustic soda, sold by 
the Penn. Chemical Works, 1322 Washington Avenue, Philadel- 
phia, Penn. It sells for four cents a pound and is contained in 
50 pound cans.

This was prepared in the same manner as the self-boiled lime-
