PROCESS TO
BEAT NATURE
TIE PRESERVING PLANT ON
CLEARWATER LAKE.
GREAT NORTHERN NOV
Are Awarded--Wor ks
One of Few in United
States. :
A GREAT NORTHERN NOW

st. Paul, Feb. 2-The Great North
ern today let contracts for conside r-
able machinery to be used in a re-
markable railroad tie preserving plant
to be erected on Clearwater lake, 10
miles south Of Kalisrell, Mont. The
cost OF the plant, in running order
will be about 800, 900.
The railroad connecting the site of
the plant and kalispell has been co M
pleted. There are only two or three
tie preserving giants in the United
States. The process is a modification
and an improvement over all other
methods IN use.
Flathead lake is surrounded by an
inexhaustible supply Of cedar and
hemlock, large tracts of which have
been bought by the Great Norther m.
A sawmill will be erected on the
banks Of the lake and the timber will
be RATED to the mill. The capacity of
the process plant will be 2 800 ties per
day.
The ties will be piled upon small
steel trucks and run into air tight
steel chambers. The air in these
chambers will then be pumped out,
causing the sap in the ties to quickly
come to the surface and fall aw ay,
leaving the tie empty, SO to spe ak.
Steam is then turned into the cha m
Der, and the ties are thoroughly
softened under the pressure.
Following this the ties are treated
with a solution of zinc which is forced
into the ties under a heavy steam pres
sure. The zinc permeates to the m ost
remote fibre.
The last process is the forcing into
the wood OF a solution of gelatine and
tannin which forms what is called
chemical leather" filling the pores
of the wood and preventing the zinc
from exudlng.
Soft pine ties treated in this man
ner will last a dozen years, and oak
ties twice as long, resulting in great
economy in construction and repairs.

that he shook hands with practically
every one who entered the house.
His bout with Martin was the last

up to present time I have not heard

fight before the Akron club and said
IN his letter that we could get all
the money bets that we wanted at
the ringside, but don't want that.
All l want to do is to make Mr.. Lewis
make his bluff good that he will bet
81 900. Now am perfectly willing to
fight Simms at Akron o., providing
they will offer purse and get George
Siler to referee, and he certainly can't
object to Siler as he is western man
and has national reputation. l will
letters receive unless the $3.50 is
posted as "a forfeit. There ought not
to be any trouble for Simms to do 1870
pounds at the ringside, as he said he
could do that weight very easily. I
trust that Simms will accept this
challenge and if not it is open to any
featherweight in the world, no one
barred. Hoping that you win publish
