Work Carried on Profitably-at Various Points

HOW TREATMENT IS APPLIED

Most of the Western Railroads andMany in the South Use Crosstiesand Bridge Picccs Soaked In Oreoaote or Impregnated with Chlorideof Zinc Procc Is Simple

Preservation of wood by the use of eraosote and other antieeptie agencies isnow being practiced extensively in theSouthern States It is one of the firststeps toward the conservation of thegreat lumber resources of the South

being worked out successfully atpoints

Among the larger wood preservativeconcerns in the South may be mentionedthe American Creosote Works at NewOrleans which has a c ofClOG board feet per AT this workslumber piles cromties croesarms andtelegraph poles are treated

Another large plant has been estab-

lished at Galveston Tex where railroadties are the principal form of the outputwith a capacity of 7Wt ties a week

Another plant was formerly establishedat Greenevttle Tex which was recentlydestroyed by fire and is being rebuiltat Denison Tex on an enlarged scalewith tEe expectation that it will be Inoperation before the end of the presentyear

A large plant is successfully operated-at Norfolk Va

Plants Controlled In ChicagoTwo plants controlled by the Ayer

Lord Tie Company of Chicago are located one at Grenada Miss and the otherat Argenta Ark At Argenta the outputis X260MO ties 1COAC04 feet of lumber and400000 feet of piling

At the Grenada mill the output is 2M000 ties SM9G9i feet of lumber and ttttlineal feet of piling The manager of thecompany writes to The Washington Herald that the company uses about 1 IOCO

gallons of creosote oil per annum mostof which is Imported from Germany andEngland The creosote oil is brought toNew Orleans in tank steamers and isstored there In the companys tankswhich have a capacity of lS6to gallonsIt is carried from New Orleans to the twcplants as required in the work of preserving wood

Another large plant is at BeaumontTex which uses chloride of zinc as wellas the dead oil of coal tar for an anticeptic agent with good results The capacity of the Beaumont plant is KXXGCKMWJ

feet of lumber per annumProcesses Are Simple

The system of treating wood is compara-tively simple In order to insure the bestresults it must be conducted on strictlymethodical and systematic principles Thefirst and most essential thing after se-

lecting Umber of equal cross sections isthe seasoning process Unless the woodis thoroughly and properly seasoned thework and cost of treating will be inef-fectual All fermenting properties in thewood must be removed and their placesupplied with antiseptic oils or

or the remaining portion will ferment causing dry rot which will destroythe durability of the timber

The seasoning process consists ofthe wood into a cylinder AIled with

live steam under pressure which is done tovaporize the sap and wood acids Thesteam is retained until the sap cylindergauge shows all the sap to be condensedand removed this is accomplishedthe steam is released the valves againclosed the vacuum applied and held untilall moisture is extracted and the woodleft in a porous condition

While the vacuum is being applied su-perheated steam is constantly being circulated through over SOOO feet of coilslying on the bottom of the cylinder Thiswhen the live steam is discharged andvacuum applied produces hot air and extracts the greater part of the moistureremaining in the wood and cylinder Thewood is then ready for the preservingfluid

Preservative Is AppliedImmediately following the seasoning

process comes the injection of theIn conducting this process ele-

vated tanks are used The working tanksare elevated to a sufficient height andwith ample capacity of discharge pipes topermit the rapid tiRIng of the cylinderthus preventing unequal absorption Whentie cylinder is filled the pressure pump isput in action and continued until the

quantity of the fluid is injectedInto the wood This information is ob-tained from carefully measured gaugesconstructed for that purpose

In creosoting the treatment varies from8 to 24 pounds to the cubic foot to suitthe different purposes for which the timber is used

From 8 to 14 pounds if oil to the cubicfoot is used on railroad bridge or wharfconstruction where the timber is framedbefore treatment that te where all mor-tising boring dapping or cutoffs havebeen previously made Where this Is notdone a larger quantity of oil should beused say from 12 to 14 pounds Wherethe timber such as round or shoot pilinggirts or sway braces is Intended formarine use in the Gulf of Mexico Caribbean Sea or other Southern waters notless than 22 to 24 pounds to cubic footshould be used to make the treatment ef-fective as against the ravages of theteredo

In order to give this treatment withoutinjury to the wood shortleaf or sap pineshould be used This character of woodinsures perfect penetration without ma-terially lessening the strength of the tim-ber Timber for similar use in Northernwaters will prove satisfactory alighter treatment of oil say from 14 to 18pounds per cubic foot These quantities-of oil it must be understood are for thepure dead oil of coal tar with no manip-ulation or adulteration Creosote Is usedalmost exclusively in England and Francefor the preservation of wood

Treating with Zinc and OH

Zinc and oil Jointly as used in the Allardyce process has been in use abouteight years A similar treatment has beenused Germany for a sufficient lengthof time to demonstrate Its utility It isnow used extensively in the treatment ofties throughout the German empire

The Allardyce process consists of theinjection of a solution of 2 to 3 per centchloride of zinc in proportion of 12 poundsto the cubic foot This is followed by asecond injection of three pounds of deadoil of tar to the cubic foot

Chloride of zinc while known assuperior antiseptic and wood preservative on account of its solubility Is

when used in a locality fre-quented by continued or excessive mois-ture But the injection of dead oil following the permeation of the zinc solu-tion to a certain extent closes the ductsor pores of the wood thus preventing theleaching out or dissolution of the zincThe portion of the oil which Isa superior preservative remaining In the

wood around the outer surface producespractically a waterproof coating whenallowed to vulcanize before being used

This process is especially applicable toties sills poles and other timbers coming in contact with the earth

The difference between the Allardyceprocess and that used in Germany consists ef an injection of zinc solution fol-

lowed by an injection of dead oilin Germany the two preservatives aremixed or attempted to be mixed with alighter gnute of oil having less

qualities than that used in the Allardyce process While the quantity of oilis 56 per cent less than that used in theAllardyce process the zinc and oil whileagitated will mix but will not amalga-mate and precipitates when agitationeases producing the following effect

The oil in the cylinder precipitating tothe bottom except a small amountthe lighter portions having a slight mix-ture In the center leaving the upper stra-ta comparatively tree of oil In otherwords the lower strata will be creosotedthe middle strata zinc and oil of an in-

ferior grade and the upper strata chlo-ride of zinc Buraettized

Use of Zinc Glue and TanninThis was introduced in St

Louis in l 7t The first road to adoptthe use of ties treated by this proceeawas the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fewhich was In 1SSB Since Its Introductionit has received considerable attentionfrom other roads and ties so treated arenow in use by the Chicago and Rock Is-

land Atchison Topeka and Santa Feand the Mexican Central Railway Com-pany

The process consists of an injection of a2 per cent solution of chloride of zinc containing a small amount of glue followedby a solution of tannin The effect ofthe tannin it is claimed being to formawith the glue an artificial leather insolu-ble in water which win close up the ductsand retain the zinc chloride

There are two methods of using thisprocess First by using the zinc glue andtannin as before stated second by mak-ing three separate solutions and injectionsof zinc glue and tannin respectivelyThis process is and has been used ex-

tensively for ties but from all the Information available no very reliable rec-ord has been kept of the durability of theties so treated The Gun Colorado andSanta Fe Railroad Company has abandoned the use of this process at lie

A few years ago these Mexican hatswere rarely seen in the United Statesbut now orders for them come from asfar North as Missouri and Kentucky andmany of them are shipped to New YorkCity

The wives and daughters of the touristshave found that the finer grade of theseMexican hats can be decorated with redribbons around the crown and brimknotting them in big bows under theirchins thus making a most picturesqueheadgear for lawn parties and picnicsThe wide soft brims keep the sun offbetter than the bonnets and art cool-er and besides that the effect of a prettyface in setting of varlcolored straw andred ribbons is unquestionably fetchingTo meet this highclass demaricksome ofthe Mexican sombreros this year areclose to the genuine Panama in looks

MONEY GOES TO CANADA

Capital Invested Over the BorderShown in Tariff Speeohes-

The Factories Going NocthDown South and Ought

to Be Kept There

Not without reason the chargemade both looses of Congress

that the Canadian acts 4s a meansof luring American capital cases theborder when k would otherwise remainto this country It appears that severallarge American factories have been es-tabltebed to the Dominion within the putfew years and that many branch conoems have also gone there with a viewto tanking goods and selling them m Can-ada so as to avoid paying the tariff onthe products carried across the border

It te not contended for one momentthat these concerns would not prefer toremain the United States but teasmuch as the best markets are te Canadait becomes necessary to make and as-

semble the product there to enable themanufacturer to compete with EntJaJiand other manufacturers

That some arrangement ought to beeffected between the two countries toremove these conditions has bees freelysaid to Congress If these factories areto move from the Northern and WesternStates they are needed in the South andthe influx of American capital into Can-ada da the test dozen years te a distinctloss to this country and the New SouthCon A G Seyfert reporting from

Owen Sound on American capital toCanada estimates that about IMMMJOtof such capital te to industrial plantsHe says the present Canadian tariffhas apparently been the cause of manyAmerican manufacturing establishmentshaving established breach industrialconcerns throughout the Dominion Inorder to hold their business they haveestablished annexes where they manu-facture the articles they sell to Cana-dians in Canada

From the best informationsays Mr Seyfert there are at

least IM such American firms towith a capital investment of 17-

5CMQt Probably the largest plant tethat of the International HarvesterCompany at Hamilton which employs36C4 to 4000 men The purpose in establishing this immense plant was not onlyto supply the Canadian farmer withagricultural Implements but also tomanufacture farm machinery for exportas Canadian goods have a customs

in South Africa and on some linesin Australia while Canadian farm ma-chinery enters France at a lower tariffrate than similar goods from the UnitedStates

Mr Seyfert says most of theseannexes are located in Ontario

among them being three large shoe fac-tories financed entirely by Americancapital which went to Canada to thelast few years Highgrade Americanshoes are Imported into Canada butthe lower grades are made by Americanfactories In Canada

In the lumbering busteesc says MrSeyfert there are enormous Americaninvestments Whoa a tax was put onsaw logs for export the Americansestablished Ja Canada It teestimated fftCM in capitalis invested in Canadian lumber
