now in use there which has not sufficient
capacity for their enlarged works and
Increased business. The old boiler and
engine is 10 horse power and they will
put in Il 10 horse power boiler and 60
horse power engine. They will lay out
mlly $1,000 on this new machinery and
repairs on building and equipment
and will thereby greatly increase the
capacity of their plant.
Last year the company manufactured
1500 sides of leather very largely for
helting, using heavy OK and COW hides
Tor this purpose. They purchase hides
here at Skowhegan, all they can get,
also al different points along the kenne-
bee and elsewhere in Maine. They also
make Il russell leather for shoes and Il
heavy leather that is sold in Bangor to
b" made into moccasins for use in the
nmherWoods and elsewhere.
The leather they make by their new
tanning process stands the test of time
perfectly and the demand for it is in
erea'ing year by year.
