in coal-tar creosote, solutions of penta- 

 chlorophenol, copper naphthenate, zinc 

 naphthenate, and phenyl mercury oleate 

 have had i to 4 years added life. Ply- 

 wood stakes soaked 18 hours in penta- 

 chlorophenol or mixtures of chlorinated 

 phenols have lasted 7 to 9 years in the 

 Canal Zone. Pine stakes soaked in urea 

 or urea formaldehyde solutions lasted i 

 to i'/2 and 3 to 4 years longer, respec- 

 tively, than untreated ones in Mississippi. 

 Pine stakes treated by the double-diffu- 

 sion method with copper chromate and 

 copper arsenate have lasted 11 years in 

 Mississippi. Plywood stakes impregnated 

 with phenolic resin (impreg) with a low 

 resin content had an average life of 7 

 years. Laminated paper plastic made 

 with phenolic resin averaged 6 to 8 

 years resistance to decay and termites. 

 Heat-stabilized birch and maple plywood 

 (staypak) lasted 4 to 6 years, veneer 

 i^-in. thickness had better resistance than 

 Ys in. because of better distribution of 

 the phenolic resin. Acetylated birch 

 (laminated veneer) resisted decay and 

 termites in Mississippi for 8 years.)

 1-14. (Comparison of wood preserva- 

 tives in Mississippi fence posts: but little 

 change in results reported by Blew, 1952, 

 sodium chromate treated posts had an 

 average life of 11 to 15 years.) 

 1954, pp. 1-13. (Comparison of wood pre- 

 servatives in Mississippi fence posts: posts 

 pressure-treated with beta-naphthol in 

 oil, borax-boric acid, sodium dichromate, 

 sodium chromate, 10% coal-tar creosote 

 and 90% used crankcase oil, and crank- 

 case oil, and those treated at ground line 

 and top with Osmoplastic have average 

 life 12 to 17 years. Posts pressure-treated 

 with chromated zinc chloride, coal tar, 

 lignite coal-tar creosote, No-D-K (hard- 

 wood-tar creosote), P.D.A. (phenyldi- 

 chlorarsine), Wolman salt (Tanalith), 

 and zinc chloride; posts steeped in mer- 

 curic chloride; and posts treated full 

 length with Osmosar are estimated to 

 have an average life ranging from 18 to 

 26 years. 

 Posts pressure-treated with Celcure (acid 



cupric chromate), coal-tar creosote, 50% 

 coal-tar creosote and 50% used crank- 

 case oil, pentachlorophenol (approx. 5% 

 and 3%) in used crankcase oil, tetra- 

 chlorophenol (approx. 5% and 3%) in 

 used crankcase oil, water-gas tar, and 

 zinc meta arsenite, and those treated by 

 the double-diffusion process with copper 

 sulfate and sodium arsenate have not yet 

 shown a sufficiently high percentage of 

 removals to warrant an estimate on pos- 

 sible average life. The failures of treated 

 posts to date, on the basis of posts in- 

 stalled under the three site conditions, 

 have been heavier in the dry and damp 

 areas than in the swamps. In the instal- 

 lations showing more than 30% of fail- 

 ure, the percentage of failures in the 

 swamps has been significantly high.)
