ISLAND OHIA
FOR SANTA FE
Hawaiian Mahogany Reported
On by Big Railroad
Official.

LOS ANGELES, September BE.
o. Faulkner, head of the forestry de-
partment of the Santa Fe, will return
home today from Honolulu, where he
went to sign up contract for the en-
tire output of ohia ties of the Hawai-,
ian Islands.
Three years ago Faulkner went down
to the Islands to investigate the posi-.
bilities of ohia as material for rail
road ties and was so impressed that
he signed up a contract for 100000
on behalf of the Santa Fe Company.
Exhaustive experiments, made since
that time, have demonstrated that ohia
is perfectly suited to the needs of rail.
road construction and in consequence
the Santa Fe has secured the entire
Hawaiian output for a term of wears.
Ohla is the heaviest wood known and
is also one of the hardest. 1t is a
species of mahogany, very knotty and
unsplitable. Experiments have demon
strated that it is affected but little by
the continuous pounding of heavy roll.
ing stock and for that reason it is
being used in curves where strength
and durability is of the greatest i'm.
portance and cost a matter of second
AIRY consideration.
So far the ohia ties have been used
almost entirely in the mountain dis
tricts as the supply at the disposal of
the company has been too small to
stretch out over any great amount OF
| territory. With the increased number
available they will be used all along
the system where great stability is
needed
The Santa Fe uses more than 4,000,-
600 ties year and for some time past
the problem of securing them has been
a serious one. Oak, for years the stand
ard wood used in the fashioning of ties
] has been practically out of the question
and all sorts of makeshifts have been
tried. Some years ago concrete was
tried. but the tests were not entirely
satisfactory.
In certain classes of construction
work eucalyptus has been found prac
ticable. To furnish a supply of this
wood Faulkner some time ago had 170C
acres of the eucalyptus planted in the
southern part of the State.
The Santa Fe IS now receiving tie.
from Hawaii. Mexico, Japan and Tas
mania. OF all the woods available
however. the Hawaiian ohia has beer
found the most suitable.
The shipment of Ohia ties presents
some serious difficulties as the wood il
heavier than the corresponding bull
in water and consequently q shin load
ed with the ties is about as buoyan'
as one would be laden with railroad
iron.
