Some Advantages of Creosoted -Timber Structures 



1 . Creosoted structures are economical. 



2. Their life is greater than untreated structures 

 under equal conditions. 



3. Creosoting will result in a reduction of from 1 

 to 25 per cent, (more in spe- 

 cial cases) in the annual cost 

 of such structures. 



4. Repairs due to decayed 

 timber are practically elimi- 

 nated. 



5. The economy derived from 

 proper creosoting naturally 

 varies with the method of 

 treatment used, species of wood employed, and 

 mechanical conditions involved, but creosoting al- 

 ways pays where wood is exposed to decay. 



6. The application of Carbosota Creosote Oil as 

 a paint is very great economy. It costs but a 

 fraction of the price of a good grade of paint, 

 lasts longer, does not crack or peel off, and pre- 



serves the wood. Its color is a pleasant nut- 

 brown that blends perfectly with the usual at- 

 mosphere of industrial plants. During the next 

 decade or more, economical use of raw materials 

 is imperative. Eliminate at least one item of 

 preventable waste by creo- 

 soting wood and protecting 

 it from decay. 



Carbosota Creosote Oil is a 

 pure coal-tar creosote which 

 has been especially developed 

 for non-pressure treatments. 

 It is the universally recog- 

 nized standard. 



Carbosota Creosote Oil meets Government re- 

 quirements. It is economical, ready for use, con- 

 veniently packed, and obtainable everywhere. 



{Green wood cannot be effectively creosoted by non-pressure 

 processes. It should be air-dry. In regions of moist, warm 

 climate, wood of some species may start to decay before it can 

 be air-dried. Exception should be made in such cases and 

 treatment modified accordingly.)
