(under subclass 94.1) Processes directed to the treatment of fur.
(1) Note. "Fur", as used herein, means the soft fine fibrous coat covering the skins of many animals and commonly known as fur as distinguished from hair.
(2) Note. Fluid treatments of hides and skins having the fur thereon are not classified in this subclass, unless the treatment is for the purpose of treating the fur fibers. For the fluid treatment of furred skins, such as tanning, etc., which are not for the purpose of treating the fur fiber itself, see the appropriate subclasses below.
