KID GLOVE INDUSTRY.
Its Centre is Grcnobls. city in France
Business was Established 800 Years

Kid gloves and kid skins are the cub
ject OF an interesting report to the state
department ly Consul Anderson, at Gre
noble, where for hundreds of years the
manufacture of kid gloves has been the
chief industry. GrcuoblC j. situated IN
the centre of the finest kid-skin region
OF France. ana is surrounded by noun
tuins, where the cheap labor Of ;he
peasant woman can be economically en-
pluy Cd in hand sewing.
Several centuries ago Grcnohlc won a
well-do served equation for the quality
of its gloves The actual quantity OF
gloves manufactured wa, small in com
parison with the output of to-day, but we
lind that in 1861 the glove corporation Of
Grenoble was organized and founded,
and that ever since that time reCoros
have been kept which testify to its inn
pcrtanCC.
Since the invention of the sowing ma
chine this industry has been gradually
dccentralizod. and kid gloves are now
made in almost every country of the
civilized world. Commercial competition
notably in belgium, Germany, England,
ItaIy and Observation-Disclosures close upon
the heels of this invention, has .leen u"r-
/ habs the chief reason why Grvnuhle has
/ lost its pre-cminencc in this branch Of
manufactures. 1t may justly be said,
however, that Grenoblo always has been
and is still the centre of the kid EloNe
industry. especially for the finer qualities
OF gloves.
This industry may he conveniently al

% the dressing or alum-tanninG process

The quality of the skin is best Judged
after the tanning and dyeins process to
complete, and may be said to be based
on the strength, softncsS and pliabiliy
of the leather, and on the size of the skin,
the nncness of the grain and its freedom
from defects, which are mainly caused
by scars or diseases. These qualities of
the raw skin depend on the care Civ en-
to the young kid, on its breed. on tho ma
turo and abundance OF its food and on
climatic influences.
the finest kid skins are undoubtedly "a
be found in France, but this does no,
mean that French SKINS are uniform n
quality. For instance, in the depart
ments of Savoy and Upper Savoy, the
skins, as "A rule, are large and heavy, with
"A tine grain for the size; they are SOFT
and elastic. and at The same time sire n.
