EXPERIMENTING WITH
WOOD PRESERVATION

There has been a series Of expert
ments recently started by the gov.
ernment which should add much to
the fundamental knowledge of wood
preservation. Since the first methods
for applying chemical preservatives
to woods were adopted in the United
States there has been much discus
sion regarding the valme OF steaming
the wood and drawing vacuum be-
fore the application of the preserya-
tive.
Among those who have held
steaming and vacuum were essential
In increasing the absorptive quail
ties OF the wood opinions have diner
ed widely as to the length OF time
the steaming and vacuum should be
applied. Many have claimed that
steamlng timber before applying the,
preservatIve added greatly to is
moisture content and thus prevented
the preservative from penetrating the
wood Others have claimed that
steaming was necessary, not only
for the purpose of sterllzlng the
timber. but for TO expand the pores,
and, in a manner which has never
been satisfactorily explained, in
crease the absorptive qualities of the
wood. The present series of expert
ments, which are conducted by the
United States forest service, are ex-
pected to yield results which will be
of much practical valae In determin-
ing the proper solution to these prob
lens.
The purpose of these experiments
Is 10 ascertain whether or not, and
how much, the moisture content OF
the wood is increased by the steam
ing process, and to what extent this
is diminished by the vacuum. and to
determine the efteet of these factors
upon the absorptive qualities of diff
ferent kinds of wood when treated
with both oil and a water solution.
Results will be obtained for steam
ing under different pressures when
applied for different periods of time.
The length and degree of the vacuum
will also be varied.
When completed a report OF the
work will be published and placed at
the disposal of all industries which
are practicing or are receiving the
benefits OF wood preservation through
any of the methods now In use.
