As early rs 1928 an English tanner
conceived the idea of forcing the tan
liquors into the hides by hydrostatic
pressure, BY this method he greatly
lessened the time of tanning; and, as he
used a frame on which the hides had to
DO tackled before being put into the
wheel, and as the hides had to be cut to
ut these frames. thus causing consider
able waste and damage, the process was
abandoned.
1t Is hardly to be doubted, however.
that with the spirit of push and enter
prise now manifested by those engaged
IN the manufacture of leather the future
will SEQ wonderful improvements In
this important industry, aud that
science and electricity will make II
possible to convert hides into leather in
as many hours rs 1t now takes days. II
this Is done at all the shoe consuming

accomplished at the expense Of the ex-
