PFC SKINS IN BooKBINDIYG.-A corre-
spondent to the Scottish Leather Trader
writes about Perth firm which found
new field for pig-skins, asfollows These
pelts have up till recently been principally
utilized in the manufacture of saddlery
goods. This firm had their attention
directed some time ago to the importance
of opening up a trade in importing the
pig-skins to supplement the native supply
of the raw material. This has proved
great success, and the result is that the
quantity of pig-skins which are now avail
able for tanning purposes may be said to
be iliimitable. Consequently, it has been
found necessary to look about for other
purposes to which to put the tanned and
prepared skin. Experiments in dyeing
were then resorted to, also in printing the
hides with several designs, which from
their nature they are peculiarly suitable for,
and for some time these skins have been
largely in use among upholsterers and
bookbinders for the leather portions of
their respective trades. The style and ap-
pearaDce of the skin has caused ii 10 be
we'll received on all hands. With view
still further to extend its usefulness, the
firm have had some prepared in levanted
state for the boot trade and in this depart
ment they have been so successful that the
old-fashioled leyant sealskin has now
formidable competitor to contend with. 1t
was perfect treat to look over some Of the
finished hides and handle them"
