Uses of Beeswax.

An exchange remarking on the va
ried uses to which beeswax is put,
says: Its property OF protecting tbs.
sues and preventing mould and mill
dew was well known TO the ancients,
who used cere>cloth for embalming
and wax for encaustic painting, as in
the wall pictures of Pompeii. Wax
candles and tapers play an important
part in the professions and ceremo-
nies of the Roman Catholic Church.
Wax is used by the manufacturers
OF glazed, ornamental, and wall pa
.pers, and all paper collars and cuffs
for polishing the surfaces. 1t is used
in varnishes, paints and for the 'stuff-
ing" of wood which is to be polished,
as for pianos, coach work, fine turni>
ture, and parquette floors. Electro
typers and plasterers use wax in
forming their moulds.
Wax is an important ingredient in
preparation for covering the surfaces
of polished iron and steel to prevent
rust. Combined with tallow, it forms
ths coating for canvas and cordage
to.prevent mildew, as in sails, awn-
ings, etc. Artificial flowers consume
much wax, and despite the introduce
tion parafine, serein, and mineral wax,
its use appears to be extending.
The annual product of beeswax in
the United States is said to be 20,>
100000 pounos, and it is worth about
$4,000, 900.
