LEATHER AND SHOE mANURAC
TURE.

Atew days since We presented come consid.
eEations showing that cotton goods could Ae
manufactured successfully in Chicago. Our
artselo was very generally approved, and We
arc not without hope that our capitalists and
real estate owners will, within tho next few
years. secure for Cur city the profits and tho
ad'antag>s which that business would certainly
afford. OF scarcely less importance is tho
manufacture Of leather and boots and sbocz
Chicago furnishes TN immense market
for the manufactured articles, and wl,v
the vnlues which labor and skill add to tic
raw matesia1, should not be retained here. it
is impossible for us to diyinc. Obstacles urc
TO be overcome, but owing to tho material
changes In rents and the price OF real estatc
realised in the iast two years, it is believed
that Chicago energy and enterprise arc fully
equal to the task.
First as to tho raw material. Our romnc,-
cis! tablcs show that Chicago dealers have
shipped between the first Of August and tic
nineteenth Of Nov. A,27l ,427 lbs Of hides, val
ucd at about $459.sG4. Tho process Of tan
ming adds To the valuo Of the raw hide as We
learn from one Of our most extensive dealers,
about sixty por ceut. It appears, therefore, If
Chicago enterprise, and capital lad uianufac-
tnrod these hides into leather, thcy would
havo had for Labor expenses aud profit
$263,9os+ This large sum nust all
be paid to eastern tanners, for it cannot bo
doubted that the market Of our city could ycry
easily absorb oil the leather, especlallyI boots
and shoes were manufactured here to supply
the trade Of the city, which these hides viii
produce. Grant TINT We bare not the bark
Icre to TIM the hides which our packing houses
afford, it can be obtained from Michigan
or other points where bark abounds, and Chi
cagu should be the centre and furnish the cap
itai for the cntirc business.
Bat Chicago should not only hare retained
thn SEC. .so8, which is tho value TINT would
have been added to the hides ship
ped s'nce the first Of Aug gust but
sue should save aleo, the much larger
amount which would lave been added. bv con-
veEtipg them into boots and Shoes Va 1e.,n
TINT very nearly If tot quite Ill Ito boots md

of those for the reial trnde Of the cir. mr. ;,x

IN already immense, and it must largoy H.
crease with The growth and development Of the
West. Il
Lot us snn up Us tar as we can The profits
which Chicago must par before the hides, which
she ships east every year, are returned to US
in the form Of boots and shoos,z We must

"SPEED THE


TNHE Plough which l now offer to the public
Il has all the improvements which 1 have been
able to make after four years laborious study and
experiment. It has been tested with the best !
could find in extensive travels ia the North and
West and whether on following Lands, throwing
up Cotton Ridges, cultivatiDg crops or blowing
in small grain, its superiority has been acknowl.
edged by nearly all who have seen it tiled.
1t is usually made of cast iron. The blades are
let into the standard by a dovetail, the lower Sc
cured by the point and the upper by an iron
wedge over it-making the blades stronger and
saving expense Of two Bolts. The standard,
bolted on the side of the beam, has three or moro
bolt holes for adjusting the beam, and a prciec-
ton over the beam for strengthening it. The end
of the handles and the long Landslide are both
secured by a single bolt to the short Landslide.
Inspection of the Plough, alone, will show that
tits cheaper, lighter, stronger and will wear much
longer than any other and with proper points
| and blades, made adjustable otherwise. Of steel,
cast or wrought iron, the size and form are readi-
~ changed.
The difference between the ordinary mold board
with its broad surf ee to scour, turning the land
over in an unbroken mass, and cutting blades to
pare of and tighten the furrow slice, lessen the
friction and pulverize the soil, is so apparent that
almost all who examine my Plough declare 1t to
be q great improvement.
The castings of one horse Ploughs weigh from
