 Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  6      tbsp          Salt
  1      tbsp          Ammonia
  6      tbsp          Bluing -- liquid
                       Food coloring
  6      tbsp          Water

Combine salt, bluing, water and ammonia.  Pour over small pieces of rock
or coal in a shallow GLASS OR CHINA bowl. Drip food coloring on top, if
desired. Crystals will begin to grow soon. Add water occasionally to keep
crystals growing.  You'll probably want to place dish on a tray or wooden
board as crystals grow over the sides of the bowl.
