Engineers often find 1t difficult to get
pure potash soap for lubrioating purposes
The following recipe is recommended as in
every way satisfactory: Take 20 pounds of
absolutely pure, fine, strong caustic pot
ash; dissolve 1t in an iron or earthenware
vessel with 2 gallons of soft water. Add
this strong I've to 8 gallons Of oil heated to
about 140 degrees F., pouring 1t in a small
stream and stirring continually until the
two are combined and smooth in appear
ance-abOut 10 minutes Is necessary The
mixing may be done in wooden barrel
Wrap it up in blankets to keep in the heat
that is generated by the mixture itself
slowly combining and turning into SOAP
Put it into warm room and leave 1t for
three days. The result will be 1870 pounds
Of the finest concentrated potash soft soap,
pure and free from adulteration. Any
vegetable or animal oil will do. Pale seal
oil for wire drawing and lubricating is the
best. For ordinary washing, when made
with cottonseed OIL the soap Is both cheap
and good, and besides being useful for ma
chinery purposes produces very superior
soap for hannels and greasy or stained
woolens in cold water. New York Ledger.

UNLOAD YOUR CARS PROMPTLY.
shingiemen Cry for Them While They
Are standing Idle.

n dearth of cars for shingle shipments
is again threatened, and the railroad peo-
pie are inclined to ascribe it TO the delay
of merchants in unloading their goods.
and especially to the consignees of wheat
shipments, who, they charge, seem in
ciined TO use the cars for storage long aft
er reasonable time has elapsed for un-
loading the wheat. From the railroad
point OF view, this is a sort of dog-in-thc-
manager proceeding, from the fact that
storage facilities can easily he secured
elsewhere than on cars. while other cars
for shipping shingles are not so easy to he
had. Several cars loaded with wheat were
standing on the tracks yesterday, and tho
railroad agents were waiting to turn them
over to shingle manufacturers for loading.
IT is true that the railroad people have
legal redress. for they could compel the
constgnees Of goods to pay extra charges
or take away their goods. but they claim
that they do not wish 70 produce any fric-
ton in the matter while at the same time
they insist that their rates on goods are
made OH the assumption that the cars will
he vacated promptly within twenty-four
hours after arriving. Al this season last
year there was very general complaint be-
cause enough cars could not be had for
shipping shingles. and the freight agents
of the various roads attributed IL largely
10 the same cause which they contend now
threatens TO produce a similar condition.
