These requirement! fur nish objections to many chemical! that otherwise are very effective insecticides. The varioui methods of superficial ly treating limber, al by charring, by brushing, or by dipping with various chemical preservatives, among which 3re creosotes, carbolineums, etc., have proven to be temporarily effective, in preventing attack, if the work is thor oughly done. If not thoroughly done. termites enter through the untreated or imperfectly treated portions, ei pecially through weathering checki, and knots. Where the bases of poles, mine props, etc., are left untreated termini enter the timber far below, and, avoiding the treated portion!. come up through the interior. Char red timber it effective against termite attack for a period oi less than a year, although it is not seriously damaged 1 at the end of one year. It rill read-j ily be seen that neither brushing nor . spraying the exterior after placement,' as is sometimes practiced, is effective 1 in keeping out termite!, since the por tion that set! in the ground could not be treated, and it ii uiually at this point that termites attack occurs. Before treating timber with chemi cal preservatives, especially where the brush method is employed, it is essen tial that the timber be thoroughly sea aoned, otherwise penetration by the preservative will be retarded. Many patented wood preservatives, advertised aa effective against wood borers, often merely contain simple preservatives, as for instance, linseed oil, to which a slight odor of oil of citrocella has been imparted, or con tain simple poisons. For timber to be set in the ground, brush coatings with linseed oil are not effective against termites. Impregnation with . chlorinated naphthalene may prove effective against termites ,as a preservative for woodwork, in interior finish, where it is important that the preservative should not "sweat" out, or (tain the wood. Treated wood blocks burled in 'he ground with termite-infested logi were not attacked after a lest of nearly six months. Impregnation with paraffin wax wai not effective in the bureiu of etomology'i experi ments. If the wood is not in contact with the ground, impregnation treat ment with bichloride of mercury and sine chloride are effective. The mer cury and zinc in this form are both soluble in water.
