Jaeckel, Father Nicholas, C.S.S.R., St. Louis, Missouri, to James Alphonsus McMaster, New York, New York, 1877 January 20

Scope and Contents

Refering to an article in the Journal of Jan. 13, concerning wax candles, Jaeckel believes there should be no trouble getting candles in a country where so much wax is produced. The trouble lies in bleaching the wax and not in making the candles. The bleaching process is very simple. Many farmers sell their yellow bees-wax for very little when they could bleach it at home and make a large profit selling bleached wax. He sends along the bleaching process which he has found successful and asks McMaster to publish it if he thinks it will help. The process is not enclosed. :: I-2-b A.L.S. 2pp. 8vo.
