Steel has been the chief bene

Automobile accessory manufac

Announcement of the develop
ment of a new wood preservative,
which will add many years to the
lite or wood and which will ulti
mately save American industry
millions of dollars annual ry, was
made yesterday by the Western
telegraph company. This preserva
tive, z ine meia arsenate, was de
veloped by Dr. Leo Patrick Curtin,
chemist of the telegraph company,:
alter several years ot research.
Public announcement of the pre
servative by the telegraph company
has been withheld pending devel
opment of commercial facilities for
producing il, and completion of
various tests by which the effec
tiveness of the process lias been
definitely established.
"The economic importance of
this discovery can best be Hppre-
elated when it is realized thai ut
least 15 per cent of all the timber
used in this country each year
goes to replace wood that has do-
ayed in service," a statement is
sued by the Western Union point
ed out. "Zinc ineta-arsenate, which
is commercially known as ZMA,
has properties possessed by no oth
er wood preservative. It is applied
by means of a water solution,
which is non-corrosive to iron and
sleel, and penetrates wood easily.
Having beeu deposited lu wood, the
preservative is henceforth insoluble
in water and cannot be leached
out of the wood by rain or other
weuthenug influence. It, therefore,
Is more permanent ihan uuy ma
terial which has heretofore been
..ed to prolong the life of wood.
t u. t..ieriuore, it is highly toxic lo
decay organisms and insects. ZMA
produces no change in the color,
appearance or physical characteris
tics of wood, and wood treated
with it cau be painted as satisfac
torily as untreated wood. We are
already obtaining thousands of
telegraph poles treated with zinc
ineta-arsenate, and we believe Us
use will save us millions of dollars
iu the next few years."
; Dr. Curlln, internationally recog
nized expert ou wood preservation,
has studied many different types
of wood destroying fungi. His re
searches have definitely establish
ed the fact that zinc meta-arsenate
will add many years to the life of
wood. In fact, his work indicates
that ultimately the increase lu life
will be greater than that effected
by any of the other, present day,
more expensive, preservatives.
The new preservative will pro
long the life of timber used lu any
climate and under practically uuy
conditions. It is admirably suited
for treating railroad cross ties.
poles, mine timbers and lumber for
general construction. It furnishes
permanent immunity to atalck by
decay orgauisms and Insects. Wood
treated with it, being paiutable,
hieets all requirements for build
ing and construction lumber. It is
especially suited for use in the
south and in tropical countries,
where the destruction of timber by
decay and insects is exceedingly
rapid. It Is low in cost and Is ex
pected to greatly increase the
durability of wood and contribute
much toward the conservation of
the nation's timber supply.

(SKYMOL'H JONES)
The supreme court ot Oregon
rendered a decision last March
which is of interest to buyers and
sellers of seeds or other crop ma
terials A man near Jefferson
bought from a loeal merchant what
the farmer desired and the seller
represented to be Itosen rye, in
tending it for a pHHiure crop for
sheep. It turned out to be com
mon rye and of far less value as
siK'h pasture. The fanner sued for
damages and lost his case In cir
cuit court, but on appeal the su
preme court reversed the decision
and held that "where specified
goods are sold In compliance with
an order desnihine the goods, the
seller in held to warrant that the
(roods are of the kitui ordered.
Where therr Is a contract to sell
or a mile or goods by descriptor

In nearly all of the heavy wheat
producing countries there Is an in
crease in acreage this year over
that of Vj2H. in Canada the In
crease in winter wheat planting is
9.6 per cent; In the United States
11.9 per cent; in 15 countries of
Europe 1.5 per cent; In Africa 2
per cent. In total Asia is a de
crease of 1.1 per cent. The total
planting of winter wheat in Canada
this year is 898,000 acres and In the
United States 40,467,000 acres.
Spring wheat, which constitutes
the principal planting In Canada
and which is small in the United
States, is not yet officially re
ported. The Union Pacific system's
weather atid crop report of May
31st for eastern Oregon Indicates
a need for rain at all points east
of Hood River, where there was a
welcome downpour during the
week and the soil Is in excellent
condition. At La Grande, a light
rain did some good but more Is
needed. At Imbler, there was a
light rain and ground is In good
shape. Stock is doing well In all
localities and crdps are not suffer
ing seriously yet, but moisture is
greatly needed.
The exports of wheat, Including
flour, from the United States from
August 1, 1928 to May 11, 1929,
were 141,563.000 bushels, against
191.789.000 bushels during the
same period last year. The exports
during ihe week ended May II
were 2,129.000 bushels, against
1.6S5.000 bushels the previous
week, and 1,018,000 bushels a year
