Book excerpt: Excerpt from Animal Fats and Oils: Their Practical Production, Purification and Uses for a Great Variety of Purposes Their Properties, Falsification and Examination a Handbook for Manufactures of Oil and Fat-Products, Soap and Candle Makers, Agriculturist, Tanners, Etc;, Etc Although the animal oils and fats are essentially similar to the vegetable oils and fats in composition, the raw materials require somewhat different methods of treatment for their extraction, hence it appeared to the author that a book treating specially upon animal fats and oils would form a useful companion to those already published on "Vegetable Fats and Oils" and "Drying Oils." The extent of the various industries connected with the preparation of margarine, lard, tallow, whale, seal, and fish oils, degras, wool fat, etc., proves that the subject is a most important one and that it must therefore interest a very large number of people. It should be the object of a textbook of this kind to blend practical experience with scientific knowledge in such a way as to render it acceptable to the largest number of those to whom it appeals, and the author is hopeful that he has been able to do so, at any rate to at least a fair extent considering the large amount of material to be covered and the need to condense it within a moderate compass. The third revised edition now issued has been considerably extended so as to include much new material, at the same time the text has been thoroughly revised and brought up to date, it is therefore hoped that the book will prove useful to all those who are interested in the production and use of Animal Oils and Fats.
