alcohol/turpentine solution and salting requirements?

do you have to salt green hides or can you just add them straight to the tanning solution?
alum/salt etc.
does salting always prevent slippage?
I heard of putting small animal hides in an equal parts wood alcohol and turpentine solution for 7 to 10 days. does this work and what is the slippage rate? Do you need to salt and dry them first?

Why does someone come on here with two different name's but has the same IP# and asks two different questions? Referring to Sonny and Sarah IP# 131.217.6.2, and the time is where it's the same person asking the questions?
