as well as that for a variety of other needs.
In IK-wl Xew York imported from all sources
alK.iit 7,S0u,0uo worth of leather. In
the amount fell to a little over $11,000,000.

mand ill spite of all the cattle upon our 10,0(10
western hills, not to mention the plains of
Tela or ttaerauchesof New Mexico. Mexico
herself jends us many bides, both of steer
and goat. Indeed, she ranks next to South
America, from whence come two-thirds of
our importations.
The heaviest, consequently the best, ox
hides come from Buenos Ayres. They weigh
over twenty uounds eauli and fetch aYiun
cents per pound. Big fortunes have come out
of making "flint" hides that is, purchasing
the hids from the plainsmen, soaking them
for weeks in saturated salt water, then dye-
ing ana selling them. The advance in price
is nominal, but each hide takes unten nonn.l.
or so of salt, and this yields a biir nrofit bo-
sides cost and carriage. New Orleans is the
main seat of the business in North America,
as it is also the entrepot for hides of all sorts.
The twenty pound ox hides all go to sole
leather. Cow skins and thnai from tmm
cattle furnish the kip skius of commerce, and

Oak bark, hemlock bark, and the powdered
leaves of sumac are the things that supply
tanning. The bark is coarsely ground and
tteejied iu fresh water to make ooze tor the
vats. A very late invention Is a mill for
grinding oak wood as well as bark into a sort
of coarse meal, which, It Is claimed, makes a
double quantity of the vary best ooze, at less
than half cost.
Ouce through the rats, the hides are
washed again, scraped anew on the flesh side,
curried with tanner' s oil, whose source is
those rod livers that are not fresh enough
for medicine; then steam dried, pressed be
twixt hot rollers, and sent to market the
"sides of sole leather" that everybody knows.
Tbs bulk of it is hemlock tanned. That
bark is cheaper and gives a harder finish,
bich is thought to stand rough usage best
Oak leather fetches almost a cent or two
more in the pound, and is invariably used for
tine footwear, aa well as whenever leather of
peculiar strength and toughness is requisite.
There axe many big bouses in New York city
which deal in nothing but cut soles. They
buy leather in quantity, cut it by machinery
