Water is run into the clay-pan, the steam turned on, andwhen the water is boiling, the china clay is added withconstant agitation; it is usually boiled for several hours,thus producing a very smooth paste. The tallow, wax,magnesium chlorine, ami zinc chloride are added to itduring the boiling. Water is run into one of the hecks belowand agitated, then the flour is added gradually one bag ata time until the whole has been introduced. In some works the float is kept in the beck for several weeks, duringwhich time fermentation sets in. and a large proportion otthe gluten is destroyedj the whole mass is then mixed upand water added to a certain density, then m proportion o]the zinc chloride is added to
