I have omitted to name the houses from which the dyes and drugs were obtained, used in producing the samples, as it is my object to avoid making this an advertising medium for any particular house, and have therefore declined to accept any advertisement. 1 have merely given the prices of some of the dyes, so as to be a guide to the strength ; but should any sub scriber desire to know the house from which they were pur- chased, I will furnish the information. Should you write, a self-addressed, postage-stamped envelope must be enclosed to to insure a reply. There are so many things which have to do with a piece- dyer's success, with which the dyer has nothing to do, and for which, while he is not at all responsible, yet the manner in which these things are done directly affects the quality of his work, that I have thought in these articles best to call the at- tention of manufacturers as well as dyers to a few of them. Many dyers are blamed for bad colors or uneven work, when the blame rightfully should rest on the overseers who have charge of the goods before and after they are in the dyer's hands. On account of bad shades or uneven work, which from day to day come under the agent's eye, he at last feels obliged to make a change. He hires a dyer who has been suc- cessful in the place where he has worked for perhaps many years, and the manufacturer secures him at advanced pay, hop- ing that he will fully meet all requirements. Extra care is i v THE GUIDE FOR PIECE-DYEING. taken in the preparation of the goods. The dyer colors them, and they come out perfect in all respects ; the dyer is elated to think he has done what his predecessor failed to do, while the agent feels justified in removing the old dyer and paying an increased salary. " A new broom sweeps clean" is the old adage, and never is it more aptly applied than to this barbar- ous custom of changing a competent dyer in nine cases out of ten. I am writing what nearly every dyer and many agents will indorse heartily when I say (and I say it from forty years' experience in first-class mills) that agents and superintendents rarelv. if ever, look for the cause of imperfect dyeing, except to the dyer. The dyer is the alpha and the omega of all bad work. After a few weeks smooth sailing, our new dyer is called to the perch in the finishing-room to look at his poor coloring — seldom, if ever, to examine good work. The dyer, upon being called to see his work, declares with much emphasis that the same dye-stuffs were applied with the same care to this lot of goods as to the one that was so satisfactory at the commencement of his labors: and now we find the same dilemma that caused the old dyer to lose his situation. My object in writing this notice is to show to agents and superintendents of woolen mills there are causes that many times make it an utter impossibility for a dyer, no matter how competent he may be, to make good and even colors. The agent gets the best soap, pays the highest price (too high in many instances), in order to get good colors, and yet that does not remove the trouble. I claim that it matters lit- tle, so far as evenness of color is concerned, what kind of soap is used in scouring or fulling. In my own experience I have many times changed the soap at considerable expense, as well as much inconvenience, without any material benefit ensuing, the trouble being, not poor soap, but a lack of thorough re- moval of the soap after washing. Further, I believe cloths THE GUIDE FOR PIECE-DYEING. V are scoured clean, or as clean as they can be, by using no warm water. In some mills they have a tank elevated above the washers, with a cold-water-pipe and a steam-pipe entering it, while another pipe is arranged to thoroughly rinse the clothes in warm water after it has run a given time in cold water. This is absolutely necessary in order to remove the soap, and yet, with all the washing in cold and warm water the overseer is able to give the cloth, he will find himself unable to remove all the soap, — it is almost impossible to get it all out. My at- tention has been often called to a milky appearance of the water as it is pressed out while in process of winding on the rolls for the steam-box. A dyer may succeed in getting a decent black on cloths that are soapy, but the condition of the cloth is enough to con- demn any dyer, on account of its being hard and stiff. Full- er's-earth is one of the best things, if not the best, to remove soap or grease from cloth. I hold that in order to present the cloth in proper condition to the dyer, great care must be taken before steaming. After the cloths are gigged, and before they are steamed, they should be washed in fuller's-earth thirty min- utes, then in water thirty minutes. The reason of this is, the gig opens the fibres of the goods and gives the fuller's-earth better chance to remove the soap. All washing should be done before steaming, as the process of steaming fixes any stains or grease which may be on the cloth. The author has had early training in European schools of instruction, has held important positions in Berlin, Germany, and established the New York and Long Island Woolen Dye- works in 1858, successfully carried on business for fifteen years, and always superintended the dyeing department personally, and is thoroughly acquainted with all branches of the art. To establish confidence, in order that you may have every opportunity of knowing with whom you are dealing, I herewith v j THE GUIDE FOR PIECE-DYEING. submit you my references. You are requested to make full and satisfactory inquiry. I also invite an inspection of the standing and character of my references. They are all large and responsible firms, and are rated high in the mercantile agencies. Any business individual, firm, or corporation in your own or any other locality, being a subscriber to either Brad- street's or Dun's Mercantile Agency, will have access to the regularly printed and special reports of said agencies, and can easily obtain the desired information. By permission I call your attention to the following refer- ences. Should you write any of them, a self-addressed, post- age-stamped envelope must be enclosed to insure a reply : Merrimack Woolen Mills, Lowell, Mass. L. \V '. Faulkner & SONS, Lowell, Mass. W. S. TAVLOR & BLOODGOOD, Rahway, N. J. FAULKNER, Page & CO., 66, 68 and 70 Leonard Street, cor- ner of Church, New York City. NOTE. — The Author is prepared to furnish, at the rate of $25 each, receipts for any shades not shown in this book, if samples of the colors desired be sent him. In case of dif- ficulty in the dye-house he may be consulted and his services secured if his expenses be paid. PLAN OF THE WORK. The author avoids all the tedious and unnecessary reading- matter so common in other books on dyeing. His desire is to impart the required information in a plain, simple manner. In offering the following directions for the use of the aniline dyes, it is not claimed that they are in all cases the very best methods, as almost every dyer of much experience has his own processes for his peculiar work. The object is to present sim- ple formulas by which good results can be obtained by any in- telligent person. The Coal Tar Colors not only rival all the old dyes in beauty and brilliancy, but are also more permanent, cheaper, and more easily applied than any of the old dyeing drugs. In dyeing it is of very great importance for the dyer to be fully posted as to what kind of finish the geods are to have, so he may use coloring matter in producing his shades of color, and apply them in the best method his experience may suggest. SOLUTIONS. Dissolve, say, one pound of color in ten gallons of water, and boil for fifteen or twenty minutes. To get uniform results, to avoid specking, etc., and work economically, all solutions should be filtered through fine cloth. The dyer can only calculate with the given factors,— and these are the dye-stuffs, alkalies, salts, acids, light, water, and heat ; so is the stuff or the fibre which he has to color.

The practi- cal dyer will see at the first glance by matching if it needs yellow, red, or blue (or all). He will therefore carefully add, according to his judgment — for yellow, turmeric; red, archil ; blue, extract indigo. Before the adding, steam should be shut off and the dyes well dissolved in hot water. To avoid unevenness I advise not to feed with aniline. : ; = : ' — 'j;--'S A No. 1. No. 2. No. 3. No. 4. No. 5.

DYEIXG RECIPES FOR DRESS GOODS. 1 01 REGINA PURPLE. The fastest Purple dye yet produced ; very valuable for light shades of Lavender and light tints, where the fastness is a great desideratum. This dye, although exceedingly strong, does not come in so cheap, nor is yet so bright as Hofmann's Violets. Dissolve, say, one pound color in about ten gallons water, heat, and well stir until the color is dissolved. Dye in neutral bath, but the color may be varied to almost any shade of blueness by the addition of more or less Sulphuric Acid to the bath. This color is recom- mended for light shades.
