 (known as offal tobacco) in 21 gallons of water for four days. 

 Strain off the liquid and remove the last portions of the extract by 

 pressing the remaining tobacco. Mix the whole extract and add 

 to it 10 Ib of flowers of sulphur. Stir the mixture well, to secure 

 its being evenly mixed, and add sufficient water to make up 100 gal- 

 lons for the bath.

 cleaned out from time to time, otherwise the efficacy of the dipping 

 may be impaired. 



The dip-bath should not be made up by mixing together diffe- 

 rent kinds of dip."
