farrier; and thus to make the skins available for wearing- apparel, rngs, etc. , worked according to taste. The right way to proceed is the following : Let us suppose the subject to be the dried skin of an Indian Leopard. The skin must first be sponged on the flesh side with "liquor" till it is softened, and then it must bo properly " shaved. " It must then be partially dried. When in this condition the skin should be folded with the hair inwards, and the edges should be fastened together with ...stitches at intervals of about 12 inches. The object of this is, that the operator may subject the flesh side to the action of grease. For a Leopard, about 3 Ibs. Of lard will be required ; this is the proper grease : butter turns rancid in the skin, and therefore must not be used. The usual mode is to put the skin into a clean tub with the grease, and to tread or knead it with the naked feet, till the action and the natural heat have caused the fat sufficiently and equally to penetrate the fibre of the pelt.
