Show BXAR RIVER VALLEY LEADER, THURSDAY, Wood Preserva- tives Lessens the Cost of Farming Decay of wood takes a heavy toll of time and money from the farmer. It works silently, and its presence is unnoticed until the damage is done. Rotting fences, buildings, foundation posts, stable floors, poles, culverts, k and other increase the cost of farming and the amount of unproductive labor the farmer must put in to keep his structures in repair. "Much of this expense and labor can be avoided by the proper use of wood preserving chemicles, which make the wood poisonous to the fungus organisms that cause decay," says George M. Hunt, in charge of Wood Preservation at the U. S. est Products Laboratory, Madison, Wis. If it were possible to keep the wood away from the ground and in a dry condition it would not decay; but much of the wood used on farms, in order to serve its purpose, must be in contact with the ground. Farmers who have a supply of black locust, southern cypress, cedar, redwood, or chestnut timber for fence posts and other uses, are fortunate for the heartwood of these woods is highly resistant to decay, In many localities, however, the only posts that are cheap or readily obtainable are pine, fir, spruce, aspen, cottonwood, and other nondurable species which may last only from 1 to 5 years. Fences supported by such posts are likely to need extensive relife pairs every year, while a can be obtained for these posts if properly and thoroughly treated with a preservative. Those who must use woods of low durability must either make repairs frequently or use some means of making the wood last longer. The small portable hog houses and chicken houses that are now used on many modern farms are quickly dam aged by decay but their life can De reatly prolonged by treatment witn r creosote. This treatment is especially suitable for animal houses, wood-wor- - Osage-orang- not only because creosote Is effective ' against decay, but is also discouraging to insect life. Sidewalks, gates, well curbing, and stable floors are other excellent uses for creosoted wood. Much of the difficulty encountered with wooden gates is the result of decay; and close examination of a sagging gate will often show enough decay around bolt holes, joints, or in supporting posts to cause the trouble. Best results are obtained by cutting all boards and timbers to finished sizes and treating them before they are assembled. Cutting lumber after it is treated is poor practice for it exposes the untreated interior of the boards to decay. Brush treatment is the simplest way of applying creosote but also is the least effective. Pressure treating in plants built for the purpose is the best but not often available to the farmer, and only a few lumber yards posts or lumhandle pressure-treate- d ber. It is usually necessary for the farmer to do his own treating.
