Excerpt from A Technical Treatise on Soap and Candles
To the magnitude of its agriculture, manufactures, and commerce we turn to discover the wealth of a nation, and in applying the light of science to all of the most important manufactures, and thereby improving° the quality and cheap ehing the cost, we increase the demand, give importance and character to an art, enlarge and extend the product, and bring° Wealth to a country and its people. While as Americans we are proud to know that we excel in the many new machines and apparatus intended to facili tate the manufacture of soaps, and are constant] y improving° the quality of our products, yet we still procure from Bumpe many of their superior productions; but as we realize that there is still something to learn, and we seek to excel, we are quite likely ere long to equal any soaps made in any country.
