Statistics show that five of the largest firms engaged in color manufacturing in Germany have a combined capital 01 about $24,000,000. Dr. Perkin has devoted himself of late years almost entirely to research work. leaving business details in the hands of younger men. Prior to Perkin’s time no one had ‘been able to manufacture dye stuffs ar- tificially in large quantities. Dyers de- pended entirely upon the natural color- ings furnished by plants and animals.

Gracbe and Liebermann, the German chemists, announced a method of,,artiflciélly producing this color in 1868.

The Germans were not in a posi- tion to compete with him in the manu- tacture of this, their own discovery, un- tii_four years later. i He resolved to enter upon the manu- facture of the product.
