Timber Decay Costs Millions.

wood decay is caused by fungus
Il vegetable growth sometimes SO
small that 1t can be seen only with
the microscope. Its roots or
branches, like minute hairs. force
their way into the wood tissues and

decay. Timber is artihciaIly Dre-
served by forcing into its coils and
pores certain substances which nre-
vent the growth of fungus. AS long
as TINS substance is present in sufi-
clent quantity, the germs of decay
the threads and spores of funeus-
can not enter and the wood Is pre-
