CONCRETE POLES TO

Increasing Scarcity of Suit

Because of an Increasing scarcity In
the eastern states of timber' suitable
for telegraph and telephone poles, tha
railway and telegraph people are turn
ing their attention to finding a sub
stitute for tha monarchs of the forest
that have been will nleh destroyed by
the too great prodigality of our lumber
barons.
H. I Weber; chief engineer of the
Fort Wayne A Wabash Valley Traction
company, thinks he has solved ths prob
lem by the use of Portland cement in
the manufacture of poles. He saya
that with electric roadyespecially is the
pole question beoomldg a serious one,
quite aa much so as the tie question,
and that in his opinion the pole ques
tion will ba solved along the Una of
using reen forced concrete a great deal
easier and quicker than the tie question
will be settled along that line. The
Fort Wayne road has ordered Its engi
neers to make all renewala along that
line wiin concrete poies.
