Bog Oak.

Bog oak, which the chemical action
of the peat-water renders perfectly
black, is very rarely obtained in a sound
state, and in most cases the outer por-
tions of the tree or log are rotten, and
useless even for fuel purposes. When
laid up for use, care must be taken that
it is not placed in the open air, but it
may, from the suns rays, become open
and shattered into chips from end to
end. To preserve it, it must be put into
some cool place and left to dry gradu-
ally. and when properly seasoned it
must be cut into lengths of from two to
four feet, and these lengths be split
again and the sound parts removed from
the unsound. 1t takes from four to six
years to season some specimens, as in
many instances the wood is found at q
depth OF eight feet and sometimes ten
feet under the surface. The finish ia
not quite perfect until the article has
been for same time in use and the long
er the time the finer the article seems
to be. no matter whether used as a per-
sonal or parlor ornament.
