The nature of myinvention consists of a firelighter or kindler, made of a piece or pieces of cork fastened together, (if more than one piece of cork is used,) which have first been dipped .in a liquid hydrocarbon or aresinous substance and afterward in wdry sawdust, the object of the invention being to produce a cheap and highly inflammable compound for the purpose of kindling a wood or coal fire.
To prepare the compound take a piece or pieces of cork, and if more than one piece is to be used fasten them; together into a bundle of a size most convenient for use; then take a solid hydrocarbon, such as 'asphaltum or resin; place itin an iron vessel and heat the same until the contents have become perfectly liquid; stir from one to three per cent. of finely-- pulverized chlorate of potash into it; then dip the cork into the molten substance; and when may be used.
I claim as my invention- A compound for kindling purposes, consisting of cork coated with two layers, the first or lower one consistingof a mixture of asph altum, resin, and chlorate of potash, or, in lieu thereof, pitch or any resinous substance, or'napthaline, with chlorate of potash, the upper or outside one forming a layer of sawdust, substantially as described.
