Pastes
of
Calyx,
Hearts,
and
Buds
of
Flowers.
Take
common
white
starch
and
mix
it
with
gum
water
until
it
is
the
substance
of
thick
treacle;
colour
it
with
the
dyes
used
for
the
feathers,
and
keep
it
from
the
air.
2514.
To
make
the
Farina.
Use
common
ground
rice,
mixed
into
a
stiff
paste
with
any
dye;
dry
it
before
the
fire,
and
when
quite
hard,
pound
it
to
a
fine
powder.
The
buds,
berries,
and
hearts
of
some
double
flowers
are
made
with
cotton
wool,
wound
around
wire,
moulded
to
the
shape
with
thumb
and
finger.
Smooth
it
over
with
gum
water,
and
when
dry,
cover
the
buds,
berries,
or
calyx
with
the
proper
coloured
pastes;
they
will
require
one
or
two
coats,
and
may
be
shaded
with
a
little
paint,
and
then
gummed
and
left
to
dry.
2515.

Flowers
of
two

are
variegated
with
water
colours,
mixed
with
lemon
juice,
ultramarine
and
chrome
for
blue;
and
to
produce
other
effects,
gold
may
also
be
used
in
powder,
mixed
with
lemon
juice
and
gum
water.
2516.
To
Dye
Feathers
Blue.
Into
two
pennyworth
of
oil
of
vitriol
mix
two
pennyworth
of
the
best
indigo
in

let
it
stand
a
day
or
two;
when

and
into
a
quart

Yellow.
Put
a
tablespoonful
of
the
best
turmeric
into
a
quart
of
boiling
water;
when
well
mixed
put
in
the
feathers.
More
or
less
of
the
turmeric
will
give
them
different
shades,
and
a
very
small
quantity
of
soda
will
give
them
an
orange
hue.
