white of the eyes and urine, and a sense of weariness to the limbs in the animal diseased.
Cure.

yellow, patent.
PATENT Yellow is composed of Semi vitrified oxyd of lead (litharge) and muriate of ammonia (sal ammoniac) in the proportion of one ounce of the former to one drachm of the latter submitted in the form of a powder to a red heat.
yest, how made with Peas in Persia.
TAKE a small teacup or wine glass full of split or bruised peas, pour on them a pint of boiling water, and set the whole in a vessel all night on the hearth, or in any other warm place; this water will be a good yest, and have a froth on its top the next morning. In this cold climate, especially in a cold season, it should stand longer to ferment; perhaps twenty-four or forty-eight hours, and the quantity of peas should be greater.—The above quantity, says Mr. Eaton, made for me as much bread as a half quartern loaf, the quality of which was very good and light. It may be necessary that in this country in winter it should be put to ferment in a cool oven.
