[at-l] Pinkham Notch Fly Dope

[gaudet@attbi.com (Arthur Gaudet)]

I got this recipe from the 1936 guide book for the White Mountains. 
If anyone knows where "carbolated vaseline" can be found, please let 
me know. I was able to find a recipe for regular vaseline (paraffin & 
mineral oil) and I know that "carbolated" relates to the use of 
carbolic acid...

"Pinkham Notch Fly Dope. Not recommended for delicate complexions or 
sensitive nostrils. Good for black flies and midges. Makes 1 pound. " 
- 1936 AMC Guide to White Mountains.

1 large tube of carbolated vaseline
1 oz camphor
1 oz creosote
1 oz oil of pennyroyal
1 oz olive oil
2 oz citronella
3 oz pine tar

I imagine you just mix it up, put it in squeeze bottles and apply as 
needed. Wonder if it works... --RD
