UNIVERSITY RUNS STRANGE TANNERY Columbia Prolessor Is Doing Unique Research Work e New Univy Thumt In"a cupied table, York, March 13.—Columbia ity is operating a “Tom ' tannery, space no larger than that oc- by the ordinary sized library P’rofessor Arthur W. Thomas, ed by Miss Margaret K. Kelly, s assembled equipment for scien- tific research work for the tanning indust Ifor centurie he said, hides have been tanned through pro- cesses which have been handed down from generation to generation and chemistry, in its laboratory form, has given little aid to solving the problems involved, Use Strange Capers. Strange capers of fluids used in the various processes have often heen re- ferred to as “accidents” and few at- tempts made to scientifically fathom the reasons they refused to function properly. Ior {nstance, “Bran drench,” mixture used in tanning hides, “‘goes bad,” during a thunder- storm, just like the milk on the old back porch. Professor Thomas pro- poses to tind out the reason why, and then to devise means of preventing, §f possible, sudden chemical changes. Instead of using whole skins, Pro. fessor Thomas {s experimenting with a product known as ‘‘hide powder,” which is made by grinding up hides. This is treated with various chem- icals. Twelve botties, rotated to stim- ualte the actions of drums used in a regular tannery, are used in keeping the powder beaten up in suspension. Electricity is also used and the reac- a sérved upon lts application to them. Studying Nature, “The Columbia laboratory,” said Professor Thomas, “‘is also making a careful study of the nature of tanning extracts. The present work has been devoted to finding a scientific expla- nation of the very astringent nature of some vegetable tannins as com- pared with the mild action of others. The answer seems to “have been “ound for it develops that astringent tan- nings have a greater electrical charge than mild ones, Science can change this electrical charge and now an as- tringent tannin may be made to act like a mild one.” Professor Thomas is also investi- gating the possibility of standardiza- tion in the leather industry. “The demand for given quantitie of types and leathers,” he said, o made by the public. The insistent demands for multitudinous colors, finishes of leathers and shapes and style of shoes has heen the bane of the shoe industry and does not tend to make shoes lower in price.” The work in connection with leath- er tanning was made possible by a gift of Arthur H. Gallun, a. wealthy leather merchant of Milwaukee. TRIAL BY JURY.
