It is estimated that if the 85,000,
000 railroad ties at the present un
treated: were given a bath in a pre
servative fluid, a saving, of 1,500,
000,000 board feet would be ef
fected annually. Spur tracks are
maintained jointly by the labora
tory and the Chicago. Milwaukee
and St; Paul Railway, which en
ters Madison, for practical tests of
this ; part of the research work.
It is stated that about 47 per
cent ot the logs entering the saw
mill is -waste represented by bark,
slabs, trimmings, and sawdust. Ex
periments being conducted with a
view to recovering this great eco
nomic loss range from the sugges
tion of. feeding, cooked sawdust, to
cattle to that of converting crooked
trees., limbs and slabs into wood
alcohol. Waste- also may be used,
ft Is said., in producing artificial'
silk, gunpowder, paints, varnishes,
soaps. Inks, celluloid, sausage cas
ings, acetylene and chloroform.
