BY tie rapid increase in the use OF
treated timber in recent years The
increase has been most notable in
the case Of railway cross ties. Ali Of
the larger companies in the West now
use treated ties to a greater or less
extent, and many Ct them operate
their own treating plants.
It is also notable that the use Of
treated timber is confined principally
to corporations requiring very large
quantities OF construction material.
This is largely accounted for by the
fact that the pressure system OF i'm.
