TIMBER CONSUMPTION
UNDERGROUND MINING
DEPLETION OF FORESTS ADDING
HEAVILY TO EXPENSE OF
MINING OPERATIONS.

The annual underground consnmp
ton of timber by the mining industry
of the United States amounts to 293
10000 cubic feet, according TO an esti-
mate just made by the bureau of mines
OF this amount. 151.14O.O 900 cubic feet
are used in the bituminous coal indus
try: Ct. 900, 900 in the anthracite mines;
1880, 900 in iron ore mines. and 49,.
$4,000 in mines producing other ores.
This increase in the annual consump-
ton in mines since 1905 amounts to
nearly 46 per cent
A serious problem now confronting
the mine operators in the important
coal and metal mining regions in both
the east and west is a noticeable de-
crease in the supply and quality of the
timber in many mining regions, coupled
with marked increase in cost declares
the bureau.
Perhaps rs per cent or more of the
timber used in the anthracite region
in Pennsylvania is soft wood-loblolly
and second growth yellow pine-most

cite mines is 1872 cents. During the
period of Is years from 1905 to 1920,
the cost of round mine timber delivered
in the anthracite region has increased
from Sc to 27.5 cents per cubic foot
or more than four times.
No recent figures indicating the
quality and cost of timber used in the
bituminous coal regions of the east and
middle west are available, but it is
reasonable to assume the same rel
alive increase will obtain as shown in
the anthracite region.
The consumption of round timber in
the Lake Superior iron mines has in
creased from slightly more than r.

cubic feet in 1920. or two and a quarter
times. During the same period the
average cost rose from cents a cubic
foot to "a cents a cubic foot or nearly
five times.
Throughout nearly all the metal !
mining districts of the west the con-
sumption and cost of mine timber has |
materially increased in the past de-
cade. Likewise the more durable vari-
cites of timber are becoming scarcer |
and the source more remote from points |
of consumption. consequently in many |
localities the less durable varieties
must now be used

1t is obvious that one of the rapidly

operations is the cost of timber. to say
nothing of the labor cost of installa-
ton. Therefore, any practical means
that may be employed to prolong the
life of mine timber will greatly reduce
mining costs, and effect important
economies in operation.
Mine timbers are destroyed by four
principal agents-decay. insects, fire,
and mechanical abrasion. In general
more than so per cent of the timber
used in the mines is destroyed by de-
cay and insect attack. but perhaps not

Must Conserve Timber.

Timber conservation may be accom-
plished i'm part by better selection,
preparation and storage of timber in
tended for mine consumption. but the
most effective means is by treating
the timber TO prevent decay, with
some standard preservative before it
is placed in the mine. 1t is needless to
Point out that only those timbers
should be treated that will be used in
working places which are to be main
tanned for a period of years sufficient
ny in excess of the natural life of the
timber Neither should treated timber
be used in places where it would be
subjected to destruction by crushing
rather than by decay.
1t is believed that the artificial pre-
servation of mine timber OFFERS an at
tractive field in which important
economies may be realized and that
the time is opportune tor promoting
timber preservation in the mining in
dustry.
In Europe, particularly Germany.
treated timber has been extensively
used in the mines for great many
yea 20 and in 1915, no less than 100
large and small timber treating plants
for mines had been erected. However,
in this country the mining industry
has been slow to adopt the use of
treated timber, Notwithstanding that
the replacement of timber caused by
decay often constitutes one of the
principal items of expense.
Bureau investigates.
The explanation of this is that min
ing timber in most localities until the
last few years. has been plentiful and
cheap. AS a result no
inducement was offered to practice
