From the preface to part 7: "The manufacture of soaps is such a simple thing that it is a duty to directly popularize the knowledge of it, because not only can fat waste be exploited in every home, but also many readers who are interested, can carry on soap making as a profession, just as it is abroad.(...) Besides, the scent of our forests and gardens could also be exploited in a very easy way, and not bring in their place for fabulous sums of money mostly nicely dressed lichen. Perfumery is one of the most profitable, so we are preparing a more extensive manual (32 pages) in this field.
