uowELLs Patent Tanning Machine

HOWELLS Patent Tanning Machine
IL The great saving Of time and labor effected BY
this machine renders Il one Of the most valuable d
modern inventions, being Of the utmost importanc.
to those already engaged in the manufacture Of esth
er, besides offering the greatest inducements TO 9th
ers for starting the business.
BY this machine, which in its operation strictly
follows the principles of the old way, all kinds OIL
hides and skins may be tanned, not only so as ID
produce a superior article of leather, but with m
wing of seventy five per cent. in time, and fifty pei
cent. in labor, besides great economy in bark OF
tanning material.
A tannery in which the improved method was
adopted, would, by its savings alone, be ATTENDED
with large profits, whilst neigh boring one where
the old plan was pursued would be losing money.
The invention, which has been awarded got
medal by the American institute, being the mos.
valuable improvement ever introduced into this
branch of manufactures has given the highest salts
faction in the different States in which it is in use.
In the opinion Of practical men who have adopted
the improvement, at the cost of about five hundred
dollars an establishment can be started which will
tan two thousand sides of sole leather or four thou
sand calf skins per annum at fifty per cent less than
the usual expense of manufacture. Where's greater
amount Of business is required to be done, add
tonal outlay, Of course, will be necessary. By this
machine sole leather can be thoroughly tanned in
twenty to thirty days, upper leather IN two weeks
and calfskins in from three to seven days. The
subscribers offer for sale single and county rights
for the above, and will afford the most liberal fac-
ties to those purchasing State rights for the purpose
ofreselling to counties or individuals. A neat mod
Ell of the machine, showing its action and consru.
ton, will, if required be furnished gratis to all pu
chasers.
For further particulars, address (post paid) b..
chanan e. Co., at the Office of the Albion newspape
New York. ,.'..
One of these machines will be exhibited in opera
ton at the great national fair at Washington city
Persons at distance who may be unable to be
present at the fair would do well to procure SOME
friend at Washington, to attend and examine for|
them the great advantages of this improvement.
