The solid matter, while still in a semi-liquid condition, is then run off into filter- ing frames lined with cocoanut matting, through which the remaining water perco- lates and runs into the public sewer. Thus there is left in the frame the dirt and fatty matter in the form of a thick paste, called " magma. " The magma is next put into canvas bags or wrappers, and placed in a steam-heated hydraulic press, where it undergoes a process similar to that of ordinary seed-crush- ing. The fatty matte...r, both from the wool and soap used in the washing now oozes ou; in the form of a brown liquid, which is run into casks, and, when cold, forms the substance known in the trade as " brown grease. " This grease is used for a variety of purposes, such as the lubricating of axles, &c. ; but the bulk of it is bleached and made into what are called wax candles, vestas, &c. In this latter proess an oil is ob- tained which is largely used for lubricating shafting and the like. The solid matter remaining in the canvas wrappers in the hydraulic press after the grease has been squeezed out is used by the farmers as manure.
