In from the edge of the floe. Au jana! Aua! Oha! Haq! And the yelping dog-teams go; And the long whips crack, and the men come back, Back from the edge of the floe! We tracked Bear Bottoms to his secret place, We heard him scratch below, We made our mark, and we watched beside, Out on the edge of the floe. We raised our lance when he rose to breathe, We drove it downward--so! And we played him thus, and we killed him thus, Out on the edge of the floe. Our gloves are glued with the frozen blood, Our eyes with the drifting snow; But we come back to Franklin again, Back from the edge of the floe! Au jana! Aua! Oha! Haq! And the loaded dog-teams go; And Franklin ran to hear The Haberdasher General come back, Back from the edge of the floe!

So we tanned his hide when he died clyde, and that's it hanging on the shed. Altogether now... �EStep 1 Using a utility knife, scrape off any attached flesh and fascia. Use small, careful strokes. �EStep 2 Rinse the freshly scraped hide in a bathtub or washtub. �EStep 3 Remove the hide, empty the tub, then refill with warm warter. �EStep 4 Dissolve the entire amount of alum and salt in the warm water, stirring occasionally with a broomstick. �EStep 5 Submerge the hide in the alum and salt solution and allow to cure for a minimum of seven days. �EStep 6 Remove the hide, rinse with cool water, and gently press to wring out as much water as possible. �EStep 7 Lay the pelt on an accommodating sheet of plywood to dry. Be sure to lay the fur against the plywood, exposing the flesh. Do not expose to direct sunlight and allow up to 48 hours to dry. �EStep 8 Once the hide and the fur are both dry to the touch, apply quarter-sized daubs of saddle soap to a clean rag and rub through the fur and and flesh -- Bear Bottoms Proud p0wner of Googleware |
