[AT] Reconditioning Leather belting

[Darrell Ratliff]

Neatsfoot oil is made from the lower leg and foot bones of cattle.  Never 
heard of a "Neat".  Will have to check that out.

I always wondered what they did with the rest of  the animal after they
processed the oil from the foot.  ( I was told that the oil came from
the foot of a Neat, a small orned animal from southern Africa.
