This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed.

Drain on clean boards for one-half hour; then hang up by one edge to dry in a moderately warm place free from drafts. Turn the strips every hour, so that first one edge and then the other is up. If this is not done, the lower edge may become cracky. Be sure not to let the strips dry completely and become stiff.
