The ordinary vegetable tanning materials owe their eflic to the tannic acid which they contain, but the bark liquors in use never contain that compound in any highly concentrated form, and there- fore the ordinary tanning process must always be a slow one In the chr or Heinzerling process, on the other hand, the liquors may be obtained of {any desired strength, and the [ tained chromic acid at once does its con- "JACOBS TRADR Y .

Atfirst no application of the prin- ciple was made to the useful arts, ex cept in the treatment of glue that was employed to unite surfaces that were It soon tine contained in hidos could bo ren- dered insoluble by this process as well as glue, which is simply gelatine ex- on thig point we may mention that there are in the exhibition at rmbank chrome-tanned walrus iides, containing 160 pounds of leather intended for machinery purposes, that were completed in fonrteen days, and at a less cost than 1d. per pound. It is also worthy ot mention that the main belt which drives the machinery inmotion in the exhibition hall is a chrome-tanned belt of walrus hide which was tanned and curried and completely finished in three weeks. No experienced machinist or engineer who carefully examines it can fail to conclude that it does its work ina most satisfactory manner. On chemical and mechameal prop John Olark, one of the public analy- sin of this city, has carefully examined the material for its contained chrom Sy e Sy ““THE GREAT CERMINREMEDY FOI RHEUMATISH, Neuralgia, Sciatica, Lumbago, Backache, Soreness of the Chast, Gout, Quinsy, Sore Throat, Swell- ings and Sprains, Burns and ' =~ Scalds, General Bodily Pains, Tooth, Ear and Headache, Frosted ¢ Preparation on earth equals St. Jacons Or.

The town is not stuck on a hill to catch the howling winds of these open rairies, but cosily it nestles by a {auti(ul little wooded brook st the base of a hill that wards off the north- theory. By sonking a hide deprived of the hair in a diluted solution of chromic acid or bichromate of otash, and then exposing it to the ight of the sun, the gelatine it contains becomes insoluble. The bide, however, was very hard, and could not be rendered soft by the use of water, oil or naphtha. Evidently some modification of the process was during periods rauging from twelyve hours up to six days, and he finds that the percentage of soluble matter is exceedingly small, while his opin- jon of the chromium compound re- maining in the leather is that it ‘‘will not be dissolyed out by any treatment to which the leather is likely to be subjected, and cannot be hurtful to the feet.” Tt is very different, how- €0LD BY ALL DRUGGISTS AND JEALERS N MEDIOINE, A.VOGELER & CO. ’ E:lll‘ o < For Nervous and General Debility, tone up the system with BURDOC LOOD BITTERS, Price, 81.00 per Bottle; Trial Bottles 10 Cts, FOSTER, MILBURN, & Co., Props, BUFFALO, N.

However, the uro})‘u in the valley here, as well as at Bloomington, have suffered severely from drouth and heat. 1In short, the western or upper part of the Republican valley has had showers that did not visit this locality, and the same is trué ot the high divide where the heavy crops ure reported. Nevertheless, wheat gives a fair yield, and tho rain that is talling as I write Common leather is the skin of an animal, the gelatine in which has been rendered insoluble by the use of tan- ning, a principle found chiefly in cer- tain astringent barks and leaves. The its changed form, is nown as the tannate of gelatine. No one knows the origin of the process of tanning, It was, doubtless,discovered by accident by persons inhabiting countries that were widely separated. The process of tanning hides is_slow. even by the improved methods that greatly hasten operations, The out- side of the hide is first converted into leather, and this portion pro- vents the tanning liquid from passing readily to the in- terior portions of the skin. On this account a very long time is required to tan skins that are sufficiently thick to tanned leather is stronger than bark- tanned leather by from 11 to 31 per cent. Somewhat similar results have been obtamned by a great authority on mechanical testing — ‘namely, Mr. David Kirkaldy, of London. "His ex- periments show most conclusiv. that leather in which chromic acid is the tanning agent excels the very best bark tanned leather in strength, and that after it has reached its *‘sot- ting" stage under the necessary stress it still retains an amount of clasticity, which is avail- able for tightening machinery belting on pulleys. Mechanical people who have had much experienc: with leather belting know how to es- timate such a valuable quality.
