The plot at Limon la one of the three maintained In this country by the Hell System for Investigations to prolong the life of its telephone poles. Six miles from the Gulf of Mexico at Gulfport, MlssisHlppi, there la another, and the third Is at Chester, New Jersey. Weighing th* Advantages Before they are put Into the ground, practically all telephone poles are treated with preservatives to resist the decay of wood. There are various kinds of preservatives used, consisting of coal tar distil lates and other chemical com pounds. The problem of the tele phone engineer is to And out which one of these is the beat for the par ticular conditions encountered. One type of preservative may be more effective than another In warm, humid atmospheres, and an entirely different kind superior In a dry climate. Or in certain climates the difference In decay resistance of certain preservatives may be ao that these strange appearlag test plots help to decide. Them Is slso the matter of the dllTeront woods for telephone poles. Southern yel low pine, chestnut, cedar, and lodge- polo pine are all uaod, and each has its advantages under certain con ditions. Chestnut and cedar poles are given open tank treatment. Fifty or I more pole* are stood on and, and first hot and then cold creosote oil Is run Into the tank. The hot-cold proceas is used because tho libras of the wood wlll contract when sub ject to cooling and draw In the oil. A very much extended lease on Ufa Is given to telephone poles by the use of tho preservatives. The engineers at the teat plot can easily demonstrate this hy showing the dlfferenco In polos, both cut from tlie same log and set out at the Hama time, one of which has been This borer wlll bring out a solid plug of wood which «hows how far th* ersoaot* has penetrated the pole.
