STEEL FOR RAILROAD TIES
Railroad Companies Are Interested in New
Experiments

Experiments are now being made by
railroad managers and steel manufact-
urers who are interested in the pro
posed substitution of steel ties for those
made of wood.
Some of the most skillful experts en-
ployed by the railroads and the steel
shops are giving the question their
earnest attention. While the subject
is not a new one. the desirability of
finding a satisfactory substitute for
wood ties is steadily increasing in i'm
portance. The Pennsylvania Railroad
Company has experimental with steel
ties at one time or another, but thus
far without success.
Until recently the experiments, which
had been conducted for several years,
were made in more or less cursory
manner. Now the railroad managers,
assisted by the steel manufacturing in
terests. have taken up the subject in a
more determined spirit Introduction
Of steel ties would of course be a great
thing for the steel industry, and the
active attention of the manufacturers
has naturally been directed to the solu-
tion of the problem. It is the opinion
of careful observers of the situation
that a satisfactory steel tie will be pro-
duced within a short time.
Railroad men say that the difficulty
that had been encountered was that
the steel tie was unyielding and rigid
causing excessive wear of rolling stock
To surmount this difficulty new de-
signs in steel are at premium.
The far-reaching Importance of the
situation can be readily understood
when 1t is stated that more than 100,-
600 900 ties annually are required by
the railroad companies for their 100000
miles Of roadbed. In order to supply
this immense quantity there are sacri.
| feed every year enormous tracts oi
| forests. and this constant drain upor
| the wooded resources of the country
reaches from the Atlantic to the Pa
cific.

they could not get the necessary hits
to bring them home.
