Local Mans Leather is Waterproof
Henry L. Spencer, who is expert
menting at Haskill park with tanning
demonstrations, has succeeded in tan
ming a water proof leather from sheep
skin that is revelation to all who
have had experience with leather.
1t is oak tanned but whatever else
is included in the process beyond that
of the ordinary tanning is a secret
which he has developed. A portion of
the leather was taken to the M. E.
French harness shop Saturday morn
ing and a cup made of it into which
was-poured water. Tuesday afternoon
the leather was examined and not a
trace had soaked thru it. The under
side was not even damp. The leather
is really water proof.
Jake Hafer, the veteran harness
maker, says he never saw anything
like it before. Mr.. Spencer has evil
IDENTIFY developed somthing that
should be made use of. 1t would
certainly be great innovation in
leather manufacture if we could get
boots, shoes. harnesses and other
leather made goods that would really
turn water. Think what it would
mean.
Mr.. Spencer's invention should be
put to practical use and the consum-
ers of leather given it's benefit which
it must be admitted would revolu-
tionize the leather industry.
The actual demonstration covering
three and half days proved that the
leather would absolutely turn water
since it was made into a cup and
filled with water during all that
time.-Montrose Press.
