The pennsylvania railroad is soon TO
begin an experiment with II new kind
of wood for ties. Orders have been
placed. and several consgnments Of the
material are now Oh the way from
South America AS soon as the vessels
arrive preparations will he made for
placing the ties at points along the
main line. The ties are of Mora wood,
and come from British Guiana, II is
claimed for them that they will last
fifty years. the timber being excceding-
~ hard and possessing the quality of
durability. The present Ties last from
three to ten years.
The purchasing price alone for each
Tie of the Mora wood is 81. and the de-
livery price about $l.5o. The cost Of
the white oak ties. which the road has
been using is about 70 cents each. IT is
expected that the work of laying these
ties will begin about the first of Janu-
AIRY. There have been many cXpcr-
ments made during the last Twenty-Five
years to procure some material for ties
that will stand the severe test from
heavy and fast traffic, but thus far no
successful results have been obtained.
About SG0,00O000 is now spent annual
y by the railroads Of the country for
renewing worn out ties. it being esti-
MATED that H. 900 900 now ties are need
ed each year. The total number of ties
now in use on the railroads of the cotln-
Try is calculated at 100000. 900.
