APPENDIX II.

CABE A N D PBESERVATION OF UNIFORM.

Care and preservation of uniform and of gold lace.

Articles of uniform liable to be moth-eaten should be unfolded at intervals and well beaten and brushed in
the open air. Russia leather parings, powdered camphor, naphthaline, carbolized paper, or turpentine sprinkled
on brown paper, or on the garments, are good for the prevention of moth, and one or another of these preven
tatives should be placed amongst articles of uniform which are to be packed away for any time.
Before being packed away, gold lace, braid, cord, or buttons on garments should be covered with tissue
paper, and then placed in tin-lined air-tight cases. Care must be taken to use paper that is thoroughly dry.
For the prevention of moth, the garments should be well aired and brushed before being packed.
Gold trimmings and gold lace that have become slightly tarnished can be cleaned with a mixture of cream
of tartar and dry bread rubbed up very fine, applied in a dry state, and brushed lightly with a clean soft brush.

Hi-moving stains from scarlet tunics.

In many cases stains may be removed by the part affected being rubbed with dry pipeclay and then well
brushed with a clean brush. Should this fail to remove them the following mixture may be tried:
ounce of salts of sorrel to h a pint of boiling water.
i ounce of cream of tartar to I a pint of cold water.
Each solution should be kept in a separate fiat vessel.
These quantities will be sufficient to clean 2 or 3 garments.
The garment which requires cleaning should be first well beaten and brushed, and a perfectly clean haul
brush should be used in applying the solutions.
The solutions should be applied alternately commencing with the salts of sorrel, until the garment has been
washed all over, and all the stains removed.
If the weather permit, the cleaned garments should be hung up in the sun to dry; if not, they should be
hung up in a dry place, but not near fires or toves.
