Sink Drains

To keep a sink drain free from grease, pour down once a week at night one-half can Babbitt's potash dissolved in one quart water.

Should sink drain chance to get choked, pour into sink one-fourth pound copperas dissolved in two quarts boiling water. If this is not efficacious, repeat before sending for a plumber.
