Abstract
THE new prospectus of the department of dyeing and tinctorial chemistry of the Yorkshire College, Leeds, shows that special facilities are provided for the study of the chemistry of the colouring matters and for research work upon coal tar products. An effort is being made to combine the standard of scientific teaching of a university with the practical training of a technical school, and to encourage the prosecution of original investigation in what is certainly the most scientific, yet unfortunately, in this country, the least studied branch of applied chemistry. The dyeing department was built, equipped, and endowed by the Cloth-workers' Company, and is provided with lecture-rooms, pattern and diagram rooms, museums, experimental and practical dye-houses, as well as with adequate provision for research work.
