Mines and Minerals

Hines and MineVAi-
Mining people are well aware of
the decreasing supply and increasing
price of timber suitable for mining
purposes. The time has come when
every stick Of timber used inside or
outside the mines should be so
handled during its entire HE that 1t
may be expected to give its greatest
service. Actual tests have been
carried on to discover Just what
methods Of handling and treatment
would give the greatest service at
the least expense.
Timber for mining purposes has
heretofore been rushed from the
woods to the mines and placed in
the mines in ali absolutely green and
unpeeled condition, with the result
that decay or dry rot causes rapid
destruction. We believe by better
methods OF handling, such as peel
ing and seasoning and by pre-
servative treatment with oils or
chemical salts. that the life of this
timber would be prolonged and its
general condition. both as to sound
ness and strength, considerably I'M
proved.
Ventilation is large factor in the
destruction Of timber by decay. In
badly ventilated air-courses. where
there Is sufficient moisture and tenn
perature, decay is maximum. For
wood destroying oxigens to exist,
thew must have air AID water. If it
is possible to keep timber always
wet or always dry, it would not de-
cav, it is the alteration of wet and
dry conditions which produce rot.
BY direct experiment, it has been
definitely proven that in durability,
peeled timber is superior to uapeeled
