PLANS OF L. AND N.

NEW YORK, Aug. 2S:-In railroad
and financial circles a lively inter
est is displayed in the meeting Of the
directors OF the Louisville and Nash
vile Railroad company here tomor-
row. when Il is expected that import
ant details concerning the ambitious
plans for the enlargement of the L.
and y. system will be made known.
The announced purpose of the meet
ing is 20 authorize an addition OF S4O,-
600. Oe0 TO the capital stock OF the
company and to consider plans tor
spending the proceeds Of the new is
sue.
According to stories circulated in
Wall street the L. and y. is to pur'
chase the entire Cotton Belt system,
operating nearly 1000 miles Of road,
principally in Missouri. Arkansas,
Louisiana and Texas. In addition TO
this move the Louisville and Nash
vile, it is said, will strengthen its
hold on the southern field by making
important extensions and additions TO
its system in eastern Kentuck5. The
fulfilment of these plans will serve to
establish a complete air line from the
northern grain producing states 10
Mobile, Ala. and at the same time
give the Nashville. Chattanooga and
ST. Louis road, whose entire capital Is
owned by the Louisville and Nash
vile, a direct outlet to the sea.

ROTTENNESS OF THE

only convincing the country Of the
sort of political work the colonel has
done. but they are making it clear to
the people Of the country that he Te-

probably are receiving money from
the same sources because they pro

money with which to conduct the re

the republican campaign fund in 1904
probably were the same as given in
1908 and in the election of Nc Kinley

shielded from the direct heat Of tho
fire. In some respects the barrel
tanks are not satisfactory on account
Of them leaking, which is almost sure
to occur after few days use. Never
theless, the barrel outfit will suffice
when only few posts are to be treat
ed and when, in consequence, the
treatments are few and short.
Thorough seasoning should always
precede impregnation. Even air-dry
wood is unfit for treatment after q
heavy rain and when thus saturated
should be permitted to dry for at least
three days.
Bark retards or prevents the pene-
tration of the preservative into the
wood. 1t also uselessly increases the
cost Of treatment by itself absorbing
oil. Peeling the posts before treat
ment Is, therefore, necessary. Even
the paper inner bark should be care
fully removed.
The tops Of posts should be cut
obliquely to shed rain water. A bevel
made with an az is preferable to one
made with saw, because 1t Is
smoother. Beveling is particularly
important II the tops Of the posts are
not to be treated.

Better preservatives are the products
Of the distillation Of coal tar and

(By A. r. wHITsON and F. J. SIEv.
ERS, Wisconsin.)
While some use has been made OF
marsh lands for growing wild hay and
for pasture in connection with the
farming Of upland soils. relatively lit
tie effort toward the improvement Of
such lands has been made. The high
price Of farm lands and the rapid
progress Of agriculture will soon make
1t desirable to develop these waste
lands to the greatest extent. The use
Of marsh lands for pasturage and for
wild hay is not very profitable prac.
tice and should give way as rapidly as
possible to a better method Of ham
ding them.
Marsh soils nave certain drawbacks,
but also some very important advan.

require less treatment. The climate
Of the locality should also be consid.
cred. In the warm Gulf states or in
q molsture.laden atmosphere posts re.
Quire more thorough treatment than
In cooler northern climate or on the
arid plains.
Tho impregnation Of fence posts
with creosote Is best accomplished by
the so-called "open-tank" process.
This consists Of heating the wood for
q certain period and then cooling II In
the preservative. The principle Is
simple: During the heating the high
temperature causes the air and water
contained In the wood cells to expand.
so that a portion Of this air and water
is forced out. The rest contracts as
the subsequent cooling progresses, and
q partial vacuum Is formed into which
atmospheric pressure forces the cool
preservative.
The open.tank principle may be
variously applied In the treatment Of
posts. The best way to heat the posts
Is to immerse their butts In creosote
maintained at temperature Of
220 degrees +.
The simplest form Of treating plant
consists OF two creosote barrels, placed
about seven feet apart and connected
BY n three or four.Inch pipe. The
heating Is accomplished by building
a fire. under the pipe. Each barrel
should be set with shallow box or
provided with some gutter arrange.
ment to catch the oil in case OF an un.
expected leak. The barrels should be
