Prepare in the manner described for cotton, (page 52.) eight ounces of indigo and four pounds of sulphuric acid. This preparation need not, however, be neutralized for wool as described for cotton. In some instances the preparation is to be for the yellow of fustic one-twelfth of alum, the same quantity of tartar, and in some cases one-twelfth of alum only.
