TANNING an Elephant Hide.

1t weighed about 1000 pounds and
was about an inch and a-third thick.
After being put into a reservoir of
pure water, it was left for another
ten DAYS in water with about 4 per
cent. of salt Then it was replaced in
pure water again for twenty days
During those forty days it was con
stantly in soak. The head and feet.
weighing about 200 pounds, were
then removed, and the skin hung on
spikes in the drying room. After
hanging one day it was put in vat
containing potash and a small
quantity of sulphur of sodium in the
following proportions: Water, one
thousand parts; Stacked lime, twenty
five parts; potash, three parts; sui
phur of sodium, two parts. After be-
ing two days in this bath, it was
rinsed i'm pure water of u tempera
ture of twenty degrees, when it was
again placed in the drying room.
After this double operation was re-
peated, the skin was ready to have
the hair taken off. This operation
occupied about one days time, and
gave about 70 pounds of hair. An
other day was spent in cleaning and
scraplng. BY this time it lost 80 per
cent of its weight. The operation Of
its preparation lasted two months,
and it went through the same course
as cowhide, with the difference that
each phase of the work took three
times as much time. The skin should
be stretched in the pit, and placed in
the middle Of cowhides. Six layers of
powder is then thrown in; two first,
two seconds, and two third layers.
Altogether the tanning takes three
years. The partition of time is thus:
Becoming green, forty days; worked,
sixteen days; preparation, fifty days;
repetition, sixty days; first pit (double)
two hundred days; second pit (double)
three hundred days; third pit
(double) four hundred DAYS.

A Pstrified Forest in Arizona.

We are going to describe to our
readers one of the wonders of the
United States that is as yet little
known; we refer to a petrified forest
in Arizona. On the other side OF the
Atlantic it is known at Chalcedona
park. The forest of trees converte q
into slick and agates of great beauty
is situated at fifty miles to the south
east of Holbrook, in Apache county.
The silicified trees are found in
volcanic ground above ashes and
lava that form a deposit of from
eighteen to thirty feet in depth. The
deposit of petrified tree trunks ex-
tends over a large surface of ground,
and the total mass exceeds millions of
tons. Here and there piled up in con-
fusion we meet with silicified trunks
that are sometimes ten feet in DIAM
eter, and that represent giants OF the
vegetable world compared with those
of Yosemite or Calveras. What rem
ders this deposit particularly interest
ING is that the material that consti
tutes the petrified trees is not slick
of mean aspect, but an agate of in
comparable beauty when polished.
1t comprises all the colors of the rain
bow, yellow and red prevailing, and
making it one of the !most admirable
hard stones that can be imagined.
Sometimes crystals of the purest
violet amethyst are met with in the
mass.
1t is difficult to say with certainty
what the species Of trees are that
have coded their substance to depos-
it's of slick, but it is probable that
we have to do here with antediluvlan
forests swallowed up in volcanic
nhenomena and converted into silici-
GUS matter. After having been
buried a long time in volcanic ashes,
the tree trunks, under the action OF
silicious water, have been converted
into slick, or, rather, their organic
molecules have been gradually re-
placed by silicious ones. In these
phenomena of petrefaction there Is
not transmutation Of substance, but
a simple substitution.
According to the opinion of able
American mineralOgists, among
whom we may name Mr. George f.
Kunz. of New York, the siliciiied
forest of Arizona is wonder OF the
mineral world, and according to this
specialist, the jaspar and agate that
is furnished are the most remarkable
substance, of the kind that exist on
the surface of the globe.
Petrified trees have often been met
with, but, up to the present, nowhere
have they been met with in such
abundance at the same place, and OF
so interesting material from
meteorological point of view.
According to the micrograpic OBJ
SprNaIlOllS Ol MT. [. IL bubiOl' VI
New York, it would appear that the
nature of certain petrified trees of
this park approaches that of the
genus Araucaria, and that others
have an analogy with a cedar-Juni-
perus Virginianus.
This petrified wood is now exploit
ed Ly the Drake company, which is
exhibiting its products at our mineral
eXpositions. In the exhibit of this
company may be seen polished jasp2rs
and agates that are the admiration of
all visitors; entire trunks of trees Of
which the polished sections form
tables of wonderful beauty; and
objects of art that we recommend to
the lovers Of natures curiosities
