THE PRESERVATIVE TREATMENT 



post, which lasts 20 years, when one without treatment de- 

 cays in three or four, nor of having sills, basement flooring, 

 fences, gates and lumber in many other forms last at least 

 two or three times the normal life. 



The most enthusiastic advocates of treated material are 

 those who have used the largest quantities. Most of the 

 large railroads of the country creosote their cross ties and 

 bridge timbers, and from this large use down to the smallest 

 consumer, results are almost invariably obtained which are 

 in keeping with the thoroughness and care with which the 

 work is done. By creosoting all farm timbers exposed to 

 decay, and by using reasonable care to secure at least a uni- 

 form coating or penetration, a saving will result which will 

 make for economy, permanence, and attractiveness of nearly 

 all farm structures.
