hemlock Redwood, white pine, rodge- pole pine, gum, beech, spruce, and sev eral other woods were used in smaller quantities.
 While the oaks, and particularly the white oaks, have always been the pre- ferrei woods for cross-ties and still form a large proportion of the total, the increasing prices which the roads have had to pay for satisfactory oak ties are forcing them to look more and more for substitutes This accounts in part for the great variety of woods reported. White oak, untreated, makes a tie which gives excellent service for many years, but it has been found pos sible to take woods which naturally are not durable, give them a treatment with either creosote or zinc chloride which will prevent decay, and thus get much longer service from them than can be secured from untreated oak ties Among the woods which have been most largely treated so far are the yellow pine, particularly loblolly pine. Douglas fir, western pine and lodgepOle pine.
 This years statistics adds to the list
 
 ously had not been reported in suf ficient quantity to justify listing them separately. These are gum and beech. The purchases of gum ties in 1908 ex- ceeded 26O 000 while but slightly more than I5,000 of them were reported in the previous year Of beech ties, the purchases in 1908 amounted to nearly I93, 900, against but little more than 5l ,OOO in 1907. These are woods which are distinctly not suitable for cross ties unless they are given preservative treatment Their increased use, there fore, is one of the many results of the progress of wood preservation in the United States. For many years beech has been one of the principal cross tie woods in Europe, where its value when given chemical treatment was long ago recognized. It is not uncom- mon for European roads to secure from twenty to thirty years service from beech cross-ties. Untreated they would not last long enough to war rant their use at all.

MILLIONS OF CROSSTIES
 BOUGHT BY THE ROADS
Expenditures for That Item Alone Last Year Was S56,0oo,00o.

Washington, D. C., June S.-CSpecial correspondence of The Republican.)- During the year 1908 the steam and electric railroads of the United States purchased more than I12,000, 900 cross ties, costing, at the point of purchase, $56.O0O,000 an average of 50 cents per tie, according to statistics just made public by the bureau of the census in cooperation with the United States forest service. This was some 40,O00,- 00O ties less than the quantity pur- chased in 1907, when the total was ap- proximately 153,7O0,O0O, the highest ever recorded. The decreased pur- chases in 1908 were, of course. chiefly due to the business depression which affected every line of industry. This forced. most of the roads to purchase only the ties which were absolutely essentials for renewals, and heavily cut down the purchase for new track. In 1908 only 7,431,000 cross ties were reported as purchased for new track as against 23,557, ,00O in 1907. Of the total number of ties purchased for all purposes, the steam roads took approx imately 94 per cent, leaving about 6 per cent for the electric roads.
 It is very interesting to note the wide range of woods used for cross ties. The preliminary report by the census bureau lists separately fifteen classes or species. Of these the oaks are now and have always been by far the most important. The oak ties amounted to more than 4S,000,000 or 43 per cent of the total quantity pur- chased. Next to these ranked the southern yellow pines, with 21,500,00O, or 19 per cent of the total It will be seen that the oaks and southern pines combined furnished nearly three fourths of all the ties bought by the railroad companies last year. Cedar and chestnut supplied more than s. GOO, 900 ties each, and Douglas fir near ly as much About 4,000,000 tamarack ties were purchased, nearly 3,5OO,0OO cypress ties, and. in round numbers, 3,OOO,O ,OOO each of western pine and
