"A railroad tie lives Ave years un der tho best conditions," said a well known track man to an East Oregon Ian representative today. "The tamarack ties made In tho Blue Mountains are short-lived things In certain kinds of soil. On the mountains, where the track bed is partly composed of rock, the tie gets dry from the Intense heat and cracks open from one end to the othor. Tho rain runs into tho centor or tno tie and It soon begins to roL In damp places, the moisture keeps the tie from cracking open so badly, and It lasts longer. Ordinarily, the life of a tie Is Ave years, but many pieces of track are entirely renowed in three years. Tho Western railroads are now contemplating a chemical treat ment of ties to lengthen their life by half. A fluid, consisting principally of creosote. Is forced .nto tho tie by high steam pressure. Tho wood ab sorbs about 30 to 40 pounds of tho fluid, with the result that not a check or crack will appear In the sur face of tho tie, for flvo to six years. It will remain sound in almost any kind of soil for doublo tho length of time it now lasts. It Is a new meth od on tho coast and is not yet gen erally adopted."
