NEW ZEALAND DYES
Sir, —R-c dyes mentioned in your paper somo little time back. AVe are enclosing Samples of wool (white) which has been dyed with a liativo wood. Also note statement in your issue of to-day ro report of Board ol' Agriculture for Scotland. Judging from the colours and the crude manner in which.we have obtained the dye, it-is quite po'ssihle for us to make our own'dyes,'and any quantity for export. Tlie only tiling necessary is a mail who knows bush and bush work and life generally to make a complete success of it all.—• AVe aro, etc., ' , L. J. AND G. S. PHILLIPS.
' Ivaitoke,-August 28. P.S.—l'leiisc note tho one, a light khalri. . . 1 '
[The specimens enclosed by our correspondents are dyod a light and a darlt khaki, and so far as the colour is concerned the result securcd is excellent.]
