"Fungous Growths Destroy 

 Many Wooden Roofs 



''New England Structures Suffer 

 Heavy Damage from Dry-Rot" 



The above quotation is the caption of an article which 

 appeared in the American Lumberman, issue of January 6, 

 1917, describing in detail the large loss, due to decay of 

 roof-boards and timbers in cotton- and paper-mills. 



Creosoting such material properly will prevent this loss and 

 probably more than double the hfe of roofs so exposed. 

 This may be done by the Open-Tank system of treatment, 

 which is economical and adaptable to nearly all conditions. 



Creosoted wood does not increase the fire-hazard. When thor- 

 oughly seasoned after treatment it will not ignite more 

 readily than untreated wood, and in fact treatment with 

 creosote tends to retard combustion. 



Lumber creosoted by the Open-Tank system with a proper 

 grade of refined coal-tar creosote oil will not bleed or exude oil 

 when exposed to the liigh temperatures prevalent in machine- 

 rooms of paper-mills and weave-sheds of cotton-mills. 



" * * * a heavy plank roof is the ideal covering for a 

 cotton-weave shed, provided that it won't rot." (Quoted 

 from article mentioned.) 



It Won't Rot if Properly Creosoted 



CARBOSOTA— Grade-One Liquid Creosote Oil is derived 

 from pure coal-tar and refined especially for use by the Brush 

 method and in the Open-Tank system of treatment. It is 

 universally recognized as the "standard" and specified by 

 the largest consumers. 



(Note : It is necessary that all wood to be treated by the Brush 

 or Open-Tank methods should be seasoned until air-dry.)
