PRESERVING FENCE POSTS
FROM DECAY

Every farmer is familiar with the
rotting Of his fence posts at the sur
face of the ground. The labor Of re-
placing them and how to secure new
and durable posts are sources OF con-
slant annoyance and expense. Even
the more durable woods, such as
chestnut, white oak and cedar, de-
cay in eight or ten years. It is true
that there are few kinds Of wood
in the United States, such as locust
and osage-orange, which give much
longer service, but their supply, never
very large, is rapidly becoming ex-
hausted, and the farmer must now
look to some other source for his
posts. Perhaps directly on his farm
there may be patch Of woods which
includes such trees as black oak,
beech, maple or pine, and eottonwoods
and willows may grow along the
banks of his streams. These are trees
which heretofore have been thought
Of little or no use for posts, because
Of the rapidity with which they are
attacked by decay. In their natural
condition, they will rot in two or
three years-too soon to pay for the
labor Of setting them. TIE Forest

Service in its study Of prolonging the
life Of fence posts has found cheap
and simple methods Of preserving
them in a sound condition for an in
definite time, even though they are
the poorest and naturally least dur
able woods.
Decay is not a simple process like
the crumbling Of stone or the rusting
Of iron. It is caused by low forms Of
plant life which thoroughly permeate
the wood, tliscolor it and cause it to
become disconnected and "rotten.
To preserve the timber in thorough
ly sound condition, it is only neces-
>arv TO render the wood unfit for the
growth Of these organisms. This IS
done by injecting into it substances
poisonous to plant life.
One Of the most widely used pre-
servatives is creosote, one of the by
products of coal tar. When it is in
jected into the wood, decay will be
retarded indefinitely and an old-feld
pine or a cottonwood fence post when
properly treated will easily give life
Of twenty years or longer. Such a
preservative treatment costs about
ten cents per post. The creosote can
be applied by painting the wood with
a brush or dipping it into the liquid,
but much better results will be OBJ
tanned if it is actually injected into
the wood instead Of merely coating
the outside. If the "brush' method,
or painting, is used, the ereosote
should be applied at temperature of
about 100 degrees F. Two coats
should be given at least twenty-four
hours apart. If the posts are dipped
directly into the preservative, the
creosote should be heated to about
the same temperature. The best re-
suits of all can be obtained by first
heating the posts in bath Of hot
creosote and then either transferring
them quickly to a bath Of creosote
at lower temperature, or else shut
ting off the heat and allowing the
posts to remain in the oil as it cools.
By such a method, the sapwood will
become thoroughly permeated with
the creosote:
Full details and specific directions
for the treatment of different kinds
of posts may be obtained by appli-
cation to the Worcester, Washington,

Because he did he fell into a sharp
clash with its author. The effect OF
the point of order was to cut Oft de-
bate, but. Mr.. Aldrich chanced to drop
the remark that he would "allow I"
Mr.. Bacon to proceed. The form OF
the expression seemed to incense the
Georgia senator, and he retorted
sharply to the effect that he was mot
surprised that Mr. Aldrich should as
sumo such a manner, because he had
been debating to the senate so long
that he was accustomed to use Ian
yuage of that kind" When the
amendment was laid on the. table by
a vote of II to -, the Georgia Sena-
tor Immediately presented another
amendment requiring the taxation OF
bonds. which was rejected, Il to 81. .
Then. without any preliminaries,
the final vote was taken: It was upon
agreeing to the corporation tax
amendment as a part of the tariff
bill. This amendment was adopted,
so to II.
Of the negative votes eight were
cast by republicans and three by dem
ocrats, the republicans being Borah,
Bristom, Bulkeley, Clapp, Cummins,
Dolliver,' Hayward and LaFolletts,
and the democrats, Chamberlain,
Hughes and Shiveley. Among those
in the affirmative were: Bail :ey,
Bankhead, Cnlberson, Daniel, Davis,
Fletcher, Foster, Gore, Johnston, Nc
Emery. McLaurin, Martin, Money,

lor, democrats.

LED WOMEN ,ASTRAY?
Preacher of the unknown Tongue.
Religion Driven from Clinton.


Clinton, July "A horrible state
of affairs came to light at the Clinton
Cotton Mills last week. It seems
that a man, of whom nothing is really
known hereabouts, has been for quite
a while preacher in that community
of what is called the unknown Ton
que" religion. He professed to have
various gifts, and, with devilish prae-
tees, it is commonly believed, per-
haps, a sort Of hypnotism, he led ISL
" women captive' in the name of re-
ligion. Quite a number Of men were
the dupes Of his religious practices.

voluntary action will be accepted as

him, and he was driven from the town

Since his departure facts have
come to light, which, had they been
known, would doubtless have resulted
in much harsher treatment than he
received.
It is asserted that number Of wo-
men have reported to their husbands
that in the name Of religion he COM
manded them to break the Seventh
Commandment. Many Of the alleged
facts are well-nigh unbelievable, and
the whole matter is inconcelvably

CORPORATION TAX
PLAN ADOPTED
Amendment Passed by Senate, 6o to
11-Vote on the Troublesome
Question Reached Unex-
pectedly.

Washington, July 2.-The corpora
ton tax amendment, which was sug-
eested by President Taft, is an lnte-
eral part Of the tariff bill as that bill
nov stands.
After much tribulation. the senate
reached vote shortly before adjourn
ing at I o'clock p. N. today, and the
amendment was agreed to, 90 to IL.
MANY democrats voted with most OF
the republicans for the amendment.
Only three democrats voted against
the provision on the final vote, but
some refrained from voting at all
The test vote was on the substltu-
ton Of the corporation tax amend
ment for the income tax provision,
and on that vote forty-fve senators
cast their ballots in the affirmative
and thirty-one in the negative. On
this ballot all the democratic votes
were cast in favor Of the income tax,
which also received the support OF a
number Of the insurgent republicans.
The senate tomorrow will enter up
,on the administrative features of the
tariff bill, probably taking up the
maximum and minimum rate provls-
ion. There was a steady fire Of ora
tory from the beginning of the session
At 10 o'clock until 430 o'clock this
afternoon. When the fire had ceased
Mr.. Aldrich took the floor and made
a request for unanimous agreement
for a vote on the corporation tax
amendment tomorrow at l O'Clock.
Previous to presenting this request
there had been much comforting be-
tween Mr.. Aldrioh and Messrs. Bail
.ev, Cummins, Borah and other oppo-
nents of the amendment, and 1t was
generally supposed that they had
reached an understanding that the
vote should be taken tomorrow as sug-
gested by Mr.. Aldrich. When 1t seem
ed that such a compact was probable
Senator Cummins entered formal oo-
lection to the unanimous agreement
which not only had the effect Of pre-
venting the fixing of the vote tomor-
row. but Of forcing it today. The
first vote was upon the motion to sub
stitute the corporation amendment
for the Lodge countervaillng duty
amendment, and this prevailed, 10 to
81. The affirmative vote was cast en-
tirely by Republicans, even Senator
McEnery, of Louisiana, who has voted
with the majority side for all protec-
tive measures, throwing his ballot
with his own party.
Immediately following MIR. Lodge
withdrew his amendment, and vote
was taken on a motion to substitute
the corporation tax amendment 1oE
the income tax amendment of1ereo
Jointly by Messrs. Bailey and Gum
Minis.
The result was an exact counterpart
Of the vote on the previous roll call.
Next cane the vote upon the cor
poration tax provision upon its own
merits, but before this ballot coulo
ho reached Mr.. Bacon sought to oo-
tain action upon two amendments to
that provision presented by hlmselI'
both of which Mr. Aldrich mAved to
lay upon the table with successful re-
suit.
The first provid ed for an exemption
Of educational, charitable and reEg-
IONS institutions. against which Mr..

WITH HIS BOOKS
Lewiston Liquor Agent Is
Asked to Appear
Before Joint Special Com.
mittee Of Investigation.
Senator SewaIl Of Sagadahoc Will
Preside.--Report to Be Drafted.

The Lewiston liquor agency will be
considered this afternoon by the joint
special committee which has been Tor
several months investigating the liquor
agency system in this State. The meet
ing will be held at the Augusta house anu
George Bernier, the liquor agent at Lew
iston, has been summoned to appear be
fore the committee. 1t is understood that
Mr.. Bernier has also been asked to bring
his books and to furnish the committee
18th additional information on the way
that the agency at Lewiston has been
conducted. 1t will be remembered that
the annual report of State Liquor COM
missioner Justin NJ. Leavitt of kenne-
bunkport filed last week with the Gov
|. ernor and Council showed that the Lew
iston agency's purchases from the COM
missioner were considerably in excess OF
the other agencies in the State and
amounted to $29.40S16.
A subcommittee, consisting of Repre-
sentatives Carl T.. Milliken of Island
Falls and Elmer e. Newbert of this city.
went to Lewiston Saturday for the pur-
pose of looking over Mr.. Bernier's books
| Nh. Bernier was absent and the sub
committee on their visit to Lewiston was
unable to do anything further than CUES
ton the assistant at the Lewiston agency.
This will probably end the hearings
which have been held by the committee.
Senator Harold NJ. Sewall of SaSadahoc
will preside at the hearing this afternoon
and at this meeting it is understood that
| the report which is to be presented with
accompanying recommendations to the
/ 74th Legislature will be drafted
