Sugar to Preserve Timber.

Eight years of experiments in India
New Zealand and Australia has demon.
strated conclusively that sugar and its
by-products make a splendid timber pre-
servative. A saccharine solution not onls
seasons timber rapidly. and without any
harmful effects, but ii also keeps out
insects.
The stable hydrocarbons of the sugar
being devoid of soluble heterogeneous mat
ter, cannot feed septic organisms. and
the addition of arsenic solution and other
poisons deties bugs. The process by
which timber receives a saocharine pre-
servative does not cause deterioration in
any way, and is said to leave the timber
in a better condition than does air drying.
Australian. New Zealand and American
tests indicated that the process increased
the strength of hardwoods from 30 to 20
per cent and Of soft woods from 30 to ~
per cent. Saccharine preservative has
been found satisfactory on telegraph
poles and cross-armS, insulator pins, ca
BILE troughing, tanks. panels and base
boards and the woodwork in street cars
