NEW TANLAC PLANT
Is NOW COMPLETED
Magnificent New Laboratory
Has Daily Capacity Of
5000 Bottles

What is said to be one OF the lar
gest pharmaceutical laboratories In
the United States has been completed
at Dayton, Ohio. for the manufac-
ture of Tanlac, the well-known med
icine. which according to recent re-
ports is now having the largest sale
OF any medicine of its kind In the
world.
The erection OF the new plant was
made necessary by the rapid growth
OK the business. as the older plant
was found to be wholly inadequate
to supply the ever increasing demand
which at the present rate of sale will
amount to more than, five million
bottles for the present year alone.
BY the erection OF this plant the
manufacturers OF Tanlac are giving
to the world just one more evidence
OF the remarkable growth and ex-
pansion of their business, and OF
their absolute confidence in its flu
ture.
This announcement will be read
with interest not only by the many
thousands of Tanlac agents scattered
throughout every state of the Union
and throughout Canada. but to the
millions who have used II beneficial
~ as well.
The new building occupies 60 900
square feet OF floor space. II In six
stories in height. practically fire
proof throughout, and is OF striking
architectural design. It also has
private railway facilities.
This beautiful new structure now
stands In striking contrast beside the
older building where Tanlac was first
made.
Visitors to the laboratories are
strongly impressed with the extreme
ly modern character OF the equip
ment. Everything ia provided and
splendidly arranged to promote sys-
tematic and rapid production. The
very latest machinery and devices
known to invention and pharma-
ceutical science are here used.
The int&rior throughout n fin
ished In spotless white. and all OF the
large force of employees wear white
uniforms, which they are required
to change daily. The main Offices
on the first floor are all finished In
Carara marble and mahogany.
The entire process of manufacture
Is conducted under absolutely SAM
tary conditions. Even the bottles
made expressly to contain Tanlac are
washed and sterilized electrically by
the ultra violet ray process They
are then filled by automatic machin-
cry and the finished product is there
fore never touched by human hands.
When Tanlac was introduced into
Canada history repeated itself, and
the demand which had been created
in the United States was quickly du-
plicated in the Dominion Provinces.
As a result. It was recently found
necessary to establish another Tan
lac laboratory at Windsor, Canada,
which Ia on somewhat smaller
scale than the plant at Dayton, but
10 no less modernly equipped.
These new facilities give a daily
capacity of $4,000 bottles. but as
Tanlac Ia rapidly being introduced
into foreign countries, IL is probably
only q question of few years before
even larger facilities will become
necessary.
! While the manufacturers are nee
essarily working for capacity pro-
duction, It 10 a fundamental rule OF
the Tanlac Laboratories that the
quality of the medicine shall never
be sacrificed to secure quantity out
put.
Uniform quality In guaranteed by
series of careful inspections by ex-
pert chemists, from the time the
roots, herbs. and banks are received
In their rough state from all parts OF
the globe until their medicinal prop
critics have been extracted by the
most approved processes. The fin
ished medicine Is then bottled, lab
eiled. and. shipped out to the tens
of thousands of druggists through
out the United States and Canada,
to supply, a demand never before
eoualled for this or any other med
icine.
The executive sales offices are To-
Gated In Atlanta. Georgia, and oc-
cupy almost an entire floor Of the
Fourth National Bank Building of
that city.
