1838 to 1917 Means Over 79 Years of Service 



THIS is the record of Coal-Tar Creo- 

 sote Oil: Since 1838 coal-tar creo- 

 sote oil has been commercially employed 

 for the preservation of 

 wood from decay. 



Of course, it is but quite 

 recently that wood pres- 

 ervation has become a 

 "standard practise," but 

 that is largely due to our 

 proverbial wastefulness. 



Wood is the most available 



of all building materials, 



and suitable for every 



human need. It has one 



weakness — that it will decay; but as this is 



overcome by the use of creosote oil, no 



necessity of choosing substitutes exists. 



Creosoted Wood is permanent. 



Consumers shoul^ acquaint themselves with 



the methods of preserving wood from decay. 



They should learn to creosote wood, and do so 

 wherever it is to be used under conditions 

 favorable to decay. 



BARRETT'S CARBO- 

 SOTA — Grade-One 

 Liquid Creosote Oil, is pure 

 coal-tar creasote oil espe- 

 cially refined for use in 

 Brush and Open -Tank 

 Treatments of wood. 



It meets the average con- 

 sumer's needs and is con- 

 venient to handle and use. 



To insure satisfactory re- 

 sults it is positively neces- 

 sary to use a proper grade of creosote oil, 

 therefore insist on Carbosota. 



The illustration herewith shows that a simple Brush 

 Treatment (that is, application of two coats of pre- 

 servative with a brush) of the ends of timbers at all 

 points of contact has been most successful.
