In wholesale furriers, all the furs fare cleaned with bran. The furs are spread out on dust sheets and gently rubbed allover with it. Then the fars are shaken and brushed with a lean soft brush. The process is then repeated with bran that has been thoroughly heated in the oven. Work it well into the fur with your fingers and leave on for nearly on hour. Afterwards shake out all the bran you can and finish the cleaning process with a good brushing and combing. A fur may not look very dirty, but the changing colour of the brush and the bran will very soon prove that the dirt is there. would surprise many women if they could realize how much actual dust they carry about on furs that have been worn during foggy weather. If the lining of your fur is soiled, it should be rubbed with a little benzine.
