Mildew Proof.

By Uriah Smith

SOME tent-makers advertise a preparation for making tents mildew proof, charging some 5 cts. per yd. extra for tents so prepared. Others as confidently assert that there is no preparation which will prevent mildew. Those who have had experience in the matter tell us that to brush the tent over with a weak solution of lime-water, or brine, is the best that can be done for it to prevent mildew. Those disposed to try it, can do it themselves at very little expense.
