NEW PLANT FOR
THE TANLACC0.
IS COMPLETED
Magnificent New Laboratory
Has Daily Capacity of
$4,000 Bottles.

What is said 10 he one OF the larg-
est pharmaceutical laboratories IN the
United States has been completed AZ
DAYTON. Ohio. for the manufacture of
Tanlac. the wcll-known medicine.
which. according TO recent reports. 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
of the business, as the older plant was
found to be wholly inadequate to sup
ply the evcr-incrcaSing demand which
at the present rate OF sale will amount
to more than five million bottles Tor
the present year alone
By the erection Of this plant the
manufacturers OF Tanlac arc giving
to the world just one more cyidenc"
of the remarkable growth and eN-
pansior of their business, and OF their
absolute confidence in It's future.
This announcement will be read
with interest not only by the many
thousands OF Tanlac agents scattered
throughout every state in the union
and throughout Canada, but by the
millions who have used it benciicially
as well.
The new building occupies 60OOo
square feet OF floor space. Il is six
stories in height, practically IRE
proof throughout. and is OF 'trkin"
architectural design II also has pri.
yatc railway facilities,
This beautiful new structure now
stands in striking contrast beside the
older building where Tanlac was
first made
Visitors 10 the laboratories are
strongly impressed with the extremely
modern character of the equipment
Everything is provided and splendid
" arranged to promote systematic and
rapid production. The very la,es,
machinery and devices known TO in
vention and pharmaceutical science
are here used.
The interior Throughout, is finished
in spo,leSS white and all Of the large
force OF employees wear white uni
forms which they are required n
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 sanitary
conditions. Even the bottles made
expressly 20 contain Tanlac arc
washed and sterliled electrically by
the ultra violet ray process. They arc
then filled by automatic machinery
and the finished product is therefore
never touched BY human hands
When Tanlac was introduced into
Canada history repeated itself and the
demand which had been created III
the United States was quickly dupl-
Gated in the Dominion Provinces As
a result, it was recently found ncces-
sary TO establish another 1anlac Lab
oratory at Windsor Canada which IS
on a somewhat smaller scale than the
plant at Dayton, but is no less mod
crnly equipped
These new facilities give a daily
capacity Of 5000 bottles. but as Tan
lac is rapidly being introduced into
foreign countries It is probably only
question of a few years before even
larger facilities will become necessary
While the manufacturers are neces-
Sarily working for capacity produc.
ton. il 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 cx-
per, chemists, from the time the roots
herbs, and barks are received IN their
rough state from all parts OF the globe
un,ll their medicinal properties have
been extracted by the most approved
processes The finished medicine is
then bottled, labeled, and shipped out
to the lens u thousands OF druggists
throughod, the United States and Gan.
ada, to supply a demand never before
eQualled for this or any other medi.
cine.
The executive sales offices are To-
Gated in Atlanta, Georgia, and occupy
almost an entire floor OF the Fourth
National bank building of tha, city
Tanlac is sold in Oklahoma City by
the Westfall Drug Co. and leading
druggists and dealers everywhere
