How TO keep Harness.

In answer to an inquiry for information as the
best mode OF clraning aud oiIing harness, &C.,
re publish the substance Of an article gwen ia The
Rural New Yorker:
Observing the good condition and fne appear.
anc- of The harness OF Aid. Baker, proprietor OF
the most extensive livery establishment in Koches-
ter, we requested him to impart To US, for punI
cation. the nodus oprfandi by which desirable
an ohjec. was achieved In compliance herewith,
he stated the course adopted as the best and most
-c"nomicnl, after twenty years experience in a
business which required considerable attention to
sackng apparatus. Hiss process of niling and
washing harness is substantially as follows:
Take meats loot oil and ivory or patent black
the latter we'll pulverized, OF to be made 81"
before using. Mix thoroughly, adding the black
until the oil is we'll colored or quite black. In
cool weather the oil should be warmed some hat
before mixing. With sponge apply light co"
OF the mix,ure-only what the leather will readily
absorb. unless the harness is very dry. in which
case heavier coating may be necessary. After
the harness ls dry-which will &c in from Two
hours to holt or whole day, depending upon the
weather and previous condition Of the leather
wash thoroughly with soap suds. In making thr
suds. good CASTLE soap and raiE waier.-
Warm water should never he used on harness
leather. Apply The suds with sponge Rub of
with buckskin. This will give your harness
good color and continue pIisble for months. If
it becomes solid with mud or sweat, an appica.
ton Of soap and water above directed (with-
out oiing) will be sufficient 10 give it q bright ap
pearance.
Two applications Of this oil and black mixture
year, ("r once every six m"nths) will be suffi.
Glen, to keep harness. ordinarily used, in good
order. II may be necessary for livery men, and
others who use harness constantly, to apply the
oil oftenrr-but in most cases two oilings year
and washing with suds when soilrd, will keep
harness in good trim for sight and servica. This
proc"ss will pay large dividend in extra service
and durabiliry-to say nothing Of improved aP-
pea rance.
Aid. B., assures US that The same, or that very
similar application, is just The thing for earring"
tops which made of top leather. The only
difference in tr-atmen, Is, that less oil should be
used, rather lighter coating applieo-and it
should be washed off before drying in, top leather
being thin and much more peeetrabIe than har-
ness. OF course this mixture would not answer
for enameed leather. oi which some carri"se tops
constructed.
