GALLO-NITRATE.--1. _We advise you to try the formula given in our former
Number_ (Vol. vii., p. 324.) _for positives; 30 grains of nitrate of silver
may do, but it is not very active._ 2. _A glass rod is inappropriate; it
works up the albumen into a lather._ 3. _Towgood's paper will take the
albumen very excellently. As we have often said before, when you may obtain
certain excellent results from_ known good _formulae, why waste your time
upon uncertainties?_

T. D. L. _If your bath contains the smallest portion of hypo., or any salt
of iron, it is useless. Precipitate the silver with salt; collect and
reduce it to its metallic state._
