Tanning Skins with the W COL or Hair on

First wash the skin in strong soap-suds.
to remove the grease and dirt from the
wool, then rinse in clean cold water
The skin should now be tackled upon q
board with the flesh side out }, and stretch
cd, its edges trimmed. and the whole fleshy
part scraped off with blunt knife. 1t is
now rubbed over hard with as much chalk
as it will absorb, or until the chalk falls
down in powder. Now take the skin
down, fill it with finely ground alum, wraT
it closely together and keep it in a dry
place for two or three days; at the end Of
that time unfold it, shake out the alum
and it will be ready tor use after being
again stretched and dried in the air. This
method is for white sheep-skins Tor door
mats.
Another mode Of treating them consists
in applying a strong solution of alum
moderately warm, with a sponge, to the
flesh side of the skin, when it is stretched
then allowing it to dry, before the chalk
is rubbed in. 1t must always be dried II
the open air, or it will turn very hard.
Another mode of tanning skins witt
the hair on, after they are stretched on the
frame and scraped, is to apply warm de.
cocsion of sumac, prepared by boiling one
pound of sumac in gallon of water fol
about FIVE minutes. The sumac liquor is
applied with sponge to the whole feshy
surface then the skin is dried in the open
air. Three applications of the sumac are
given, and when the skin is dried it is laid
dpon a smooth board or table, and rubbed
down with Pumieo s.eno. d. Il. -Iuun aud
sumac combine with the gelatine of the
skin, and form leather.
BLUE lNK.-A solution of Neutral sui
plate of indigo (indigo dissolved in sui
phuric acid, and the excess of acid then
neutralized with chalk makes good
writing blue ink, which does, not precipi-
tate, and requires no gum in it. The
most beautiful blue ink, however, is made
by dissolving Prussian blue in oxalic acid.
The common Prussiap blue of commerce
is first triturated in a mortar; then about
its own weight Of oxalIc acid in solution
is added, and the whole stirred together
occasionally for about forty-eight hours.
The oxalic acid renders the blue soluble ;
water is then added in sufficient quantity
to enable the ink to flow freely, and lit
lie gum arabic mucilage mixed with it,
A porcelain mortar should be used for
making this ink, as the oxalic acid would
act upon an iron mortar.
