HOW TO DYE FOR YOUR COUNTRY. [To THE EDITOR OF
THE " SPECTATOR."]
Sin,—Your correspondent " London V." is mistaken in supposing that the grey uniforms formerly worn by Volunteer regiments cannot be dyed khaki satisfactorily. My company has dyed hundreds of these uniforms with most satisfactory results. In some instances O.C. units send the uniforms in bulk, in which case we can quote special rates, or we can treat each individual's uniform separately.—I am, Sir, &c.,
R. MORISON MILLAR (J. Puller and Sone, Ltd., Cleaners and Dyers, Perth). That is good news for Volunteers with a strong desire for
uniformity in uniform. We feel sure that a firm so famous for sound work as Messrs. Puller would not undertake to do this unless they could make good in the matter of shrinking as well as that of colour.—ED. Spectator.]
