_Saucepans_ should always be filled immediately after use, with hot
water and soda. When they have stood some time, they must be scoured
well, inside and out, with silver sand, well rinsed in hot water, and
thoroughly dried in front of the fire. The lids must be wiped, and hung
up separately.
_Frying-pans_ should never be washed, but should be wiped thoroughly
clean with soft paper immediately after use.
_Tin vessels_ must be thoroughly washed in hot water, dried, lightly
covered with whiting, and then rubbed bright with wash-leather.
_Kitchen tables_ must be washed over with a wet cloth, sprinkled with
silver sand, and thoroughly scrubbed, the way of the grain, with hot
water and soda. All the sand must then be carefully wiped off with a
damp cloth. Should the table be very greasy, damp fuller’s earth must be
used instead of sand.
_Pastry boards and wooden utensils_ must be washed over with a wet
cloth, sprinkled with crushed soda and boiling water, then scrubbed
well, the way of the grain, and dried with a cloth.
_Knives_ must be placed in a jug, and covered with hot water as far as
the haft, then wiped quite dry, cleaned with bath brick on a wooden
board placed in a slanting position. When quite bright, the dust must be
wiped off with a dry cloth.
The prongs of _forks_ must be cleaned with a piece of rag dipped in bath
brick.
_Plates and dishes_ must be washed in hot water and soda, then rinsed in
cold water, and left in the plate-rack to dry.
