NEW TANLAC PLANT
IS NOW COMPILE TED

What Is said to be one of the largest
pharmaceutical laboratories in the
United States has been completed at
Dayton. Ohio. for the manufacture Of
Tanlac. the well.known medicine, which
according to recent reports is now hav.
ing 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
OF the business, as the older plant was
found to be wholly inadequate to sup.
ply 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 expansion
of their business and of their absolute
confidence in its future.
This announcement will be read with
interest not only by the many thous-
ands of Tanlac agents scattered
throughout every state in the Union
and throughout Canada. but to the mil
lions who have used it beneficially as
well.
The new building occupies 10000
square feet of floor space. 1t is six
stories in height, practically fire.proof
throughout, and is of striking archi.
tectural design. 1t also has private
railway facilities.
Visitors to the laboratories are
strongly impressed with the extreme.
ly modern character of the equipment
Everything is provided and splendidly
arranged to promite systematic and
rapid production. The very latest ma.
chinery and devices known to invention
and pharmaceutical science are here
used.
The interior throughout is finished
in Spotless white, and all of the large
force of employees wear white uni.
forms, which they are required to
change daily. The main offices on the
flrst floor are all finished in Carara
marble and mahogany.
The entire process of manufacture
is conducted under absolutely sanitary
Even the bottles made ex.
pressly to contain Tanlac are washed
and sterilized electrically by the ultra
violet ray process. They are then filled
by automatic machinery and the finish
ed product is therefore 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 duplicated
in the Dominion Provinces. AS a re-
suit, it was recently found necessary
to establish another Tanlac Laboratory
at Windsor, Canada which is on a
smaller scale than the plant
at Dayton, but is no is no less mod
ernly equipped.
These facilities give a daily capacity
of $4,000 bottles but as Tanlac is rap.
idly being introduced into foreign
countries it is probably cnly a ques-
ton of few years before even large
facilities will become necessary.
While the manufacturers are neces. |
sarily working for capacity prodution,
It is a fundamental rule of the Tanlac |
Laboratories that the quality of the
medicine shall never be sacrificed to
Secure quantity output.
Uniform quality is guaranteed by a |
series of careful inspections by expert |
chemists, from the time the roots, |
lerbs, and barks are received in their |
'ough state from all parts of the globe |
until their medicinal properties have
)een extracted by the most approved |
processes. The finished medicine is
hen bottled, labelled, and shipped out
o the tens of thousands of druggists
throughout the United States and
,anada, to supply a demand never be.
ore equalled for this or any other
Medicine.
The executive sales offices are locat-
