Skins.— Prime the sldus well with pulverized alum, salt find salt- 

 petre, and dry in open air without expoeing to the sun. Before 

 folding up for trim8j)ortation thoroughly smear with arsenical 

 soap. To tan small skins you may adopt either one of the follow- 

 ing methods : 



1. TaJie equal parts salt, alum and Glauber salts, and half a pial 

 aaltpetre ; pulverize and mix. Handle the ekinn and rub the mix- 

 ture in well three or four times a day— the oftener the better. If 

 there is not suffioient moistme in the skui to dissolve the salts, put 

 & little water into the latter. \S'e are assured that no moths will 

 ever attack furs the pelts of whicb have thus been prepared. 



2. Mix the proportion of six pounds of aliun and three of salt. 

 Dissolve both in about a gallon of warm wat«r. Use when cool. 



Place nkiiiB. uot toci hghtly packed, in a baiTel or keg, and pour in 

 mixtme. r^kins uithout injury to hah- may be kept any length of 

 time in this wiiy, mid all in good order at any time to stuff. 



8. Take iwn pai Is of saltpetre and one of atom, pulverize them 

 well togethLi- ; .spread ihe ekin carefully, fur side down, before it 

 has di-ied ; apply the mixtures evenly, lieiiig careful to touch every 

 part in sufficient quantity to thoroughly wet the surface after it 

 dissohea ; double tlu; flesh side an roll it up closely ; put it in a 

 c ol place, out of the way of the frost, and let it rtmaiu three or 

 fom- days or iiiorc according to thicklleB^ : tlieu iiuroU, and when it 

 gets nearly diy with ii dnU kuife remove the fat thai, may adlnire 

 in spots, and a little nibbing makes it pliabl and tit for use. 



4. Glauljcr salts, two pounds : rock salt, one pound ; alum, two 



poimdB ; all to be dissolved in boiling water i leave skin? in aloiit 

 ten days, take them out occasionally for a little while dm-ing that 

 time ; cut the edge of the skin to see if the tanning has gone 

 thi-ough ; then take them in the hand and beat them over a round 

 stick or block until the are soft. They are to be beaten with th» 

 hair side in.
