b. extract of logwood, 4 lb.
cutch, 5 lb. soda ash, 5 lb. copper sulphate. Heat to the boil, enter
the cotton, and work well for three hours, then lift, and allow to lie
overnight in a wet condition, wash and pass into a bath of 1 lb.
bichromate of potash for half an hour; lift, wash and dry. The dye-bath
is not exhausted, and only about one-third of the various drugs need be
added for further batches of cotton.

_Reseda Green._--Prepare a bath with 15 lb. cutch, 8 lb. turmeric; work
in this for fifteen minutes at about 150 deg. F., then pass through a hot
bath of 2 lb. bichromate of potash for one hour, then re-enter into a
cutch bath to which has been added, 1 lb. sulphate of iron; work for one
hour, then add 2 lb. alum and work half an hour longer, rinse, wash and
dry.

_Fawn Brown._--Prepare a dye-bath with 4 lb. cutch, 2 lb. fustic
extract; work for one hour at hand heat, then lift, and pass through a
bath of 1-1/4 lb. bichromate of potash; work for a quarter of an hour,
rinse and pass into a fresh bath of 1 oz. Bismarck brown for ten
minutes, then lift, wash and dry.

_Beige._--Prepare a bath with 20 lb. sumac; enter cotton at 120 deg. F.,
give six turns, lift and add 1/2 lb. copperas; re-enter cotton, give
four turns and wring. Prepare a fresh bath containing 2 lb. extract of
fustic, 3 oz. extract of indigo; enter cotton at 120 deg. F., give three
turns, raise temperature to 140 deg. F., and turn to shade, lift, wash and
dry.

_Turkey Red._--One of the most important colours dyed on cotton is that
known as Turkey red, a bright red of a bluish tone, characterised by its
great fastness to light, washing, etc. Strong alkalies turn it more
yellowish, but weak acids and alkalies have little action.

Into the history of the dyeing of Turkey red it is not intended to
enter, those who are interested in the subject should refer to old works
on dyeing; nor is it intended to speak of old methods of producing it
with the aid of madder, but rather to give some of the most modern
methods for dyeing it with alizarine.

Many processes differing somewhat in detail have been devised for dyeing
Turkey red on cotton, and it is probable that no two Turkey-red dyers
work exactly alike. It is difficult to produce the most perfect red, and
a very great deal of care in carrying out the various operations is
necessary to obtain it. This care and the number of operations makes
Turkey red an expensive colour to dye, and so shorter me
