CARNATION, among dyers. To dye a carnation, or red rose colour, it is directed to take liquor of wheat bran a sufficient quantity, alum three pounds, tartar two ounces; boil them and enter twenty yards of broad cloth; after it has boiled three hours, cool and wash it: take fresh clear bran liquor a sufficient quantity, madder five pounds; boil and sodden according to art.—The Bow dyers know that the solution of Jupiter, or delved tin, being put in a kettle to the alum and tartar, in another process, makes the cloth, &c. attract the colour into it, so that none of the cochineal is left, but the whole is absorbed by the cloth.
