life is developing at a rapid rate

big item, particularly to farmers,
railroads, mines and telephone CON-
panies. The men controlling these
industries naturally began to cast
about for some means of reducing
the cost of fence-posts, piling, rail-
road ties, mine timbers, telephone
and telegraph poles, and other tim

last longer. The thought naturally
