Although the Forest Service, by
experiments in all portions OF the
country, considers that the practical
bihty Of the process has been conciu-
sively proved, more or less difficulty
has been encountered in inducing
others to adopt the process on a
commercial scale, In order to dem.
onstrate beyond any doubt that the
process is adapted TO commercial
treatment, the service has arranged
to erect small treating plants semi
commercial in size on several Of the
National Forests. Tests will be
made on the local timbers, and care.
iul record kept Of the cost Of the
work, The treated timber will then
be placed in permanent position
where its future durability can be
compared with untreated timber oi

Three such plants will be erected
this spring, and ii is expected that
they will be in successful operation
by early summer According to the
present plans one plant will be erect
ed at some locality on or near the

ESTATE SALES

If anybody imagines that the real

real estate tranfer column published
in the Daily News each day, ought to
convince them of the error of their
way. In no other city in the state
are the real estate transfers pub
lished daily for the very good reason
that there are not enough daily
transactions to warrant it.
A still further evidence that busi-

lines, one real estate dealer, M. ].

estate this week:
