The secret of coloring woolen and cotton goods, so that they will not fade
Many people suppose that the same dyes that they have used with entire success upon woolen, must prove equally satisfactory upon cotton goods. This however will not always be the case for while many of the regular dyes for woolen will answer well on cotton, many will not do at all. Others will dye the goods quite well, and on rinsing loose nearly all their color. Now then, in furnishing the following recipes, care has been taken to give particular directions for both. The publisher desires to say further, that all the recipes herein given, have either been originated or proven by personal investigations, and that if good dyes are used by skillful manipulators as herein directed, no one need fail to obtain a good color.

Do not try to color a large amount of cloth with a small amount of dyes. Use plenty of water while coloring, as the cloth or yarn will take out all the coloring material whether there is more or less water, and when there is plenty of water the cloth will not dye spotted. In coloring old goods always select a deeper or darker shade if you change the color at all. A clean wooden stick with which to lift the eloth frequently to the air while in the heated dye, should always be used.

Before buying your dyes weigh your cloth if you have conveniences or estimate its weight.
