river in Indiana (New Albany, I think) that makes lard oil and such 
products.  I had one of their chemists describing the process to me.  It 
seems to be animal fat (lard) that is liquid at room temperature. 
	The company is George Pfau, but I don't have the exact address 
handy.
	I beleive that McMaster-Carr lists lard oil, but it is about 
$12.00 a gallon.
	Many people say lard works as well.  I haven't got around to 
trying it, but I hope to soon.
