Abstract
A PATENT, like any other form of contract, depends very largely for its value upon the skill with which it has been drawn up. The form of wording, in fact, may be quite as important as the subject-matter. Particularly is this so in the case of a patent for a chemical invention, where the scope of the monopoly must be defined in chemical terms and generally without reference to drawings. Clearly, then, it is to the advantage of the patentee to obtain the fullest legal co-operation in drafting the specification for a chemical invention.
