Excerpt from Unhairing Hides by Sulphide of SodiumThe aim Of this pamphlet is not to expatiate on the virtues Of some new, untried, and merely experimental method of unhairing, whose chief merit consists in large claims and great pretensions, but it is to give a more extended notice to tanners here of the advantages to be derived from the use of an agent in unhairing hides, which is well known in the Old World, and which has afforded most satisfactory results to the com paratively limited number Of tanners in this country making use of it.It is unnecessary here to state the disadvantages of the Old lime process of unhairing, the dangers which attend the sweat ing process, or the causes Of failure of many of the other methods, both secret and non-secret, which have been from time to time advanced as the best means of accomplishing the desired end.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
