If It Is, It probably transcends In Importance anything else being done at tho moment In the research laboratories of the world. Ten days after the above announcement, there was another ono In the news by another laboratory, Indicating a new report edly low-cost method of Impregnating wood with mcthylolurca. The method consists of dissolving this oruanlc mntorlnl. known a methylolurcs, in hot water and Impregnating wood with vari ous amounts, ocpcnmng on wo effects required. Among tho claims mooo for wood so treated wore a great Increase In hard ness, increase In resistance to decay, decrease In swelling, shrink Ing and warping and Increased flro resistance. Also tho impreg nated wood may be compressed as in tho forest products labora tory process. 'Ilieso claims, you see, aro not at all modest. Tho cost Is indicated at 3 i cent to 4 W cents per boord foot. In lumbermen's Innminae thot would bo S35 to S4 npp thnimnnrl boiird feet nnd nol high enough to be staggering If the properties obtained arc as claimed. Some advance information was available to u prior to tho public announcement to which I referred and wo iniiiK wen enough of tho proposed treatment to make a thorough exploration of the process in tho association laboratory Before the year is out wo hopa to know a great deal more about methylolureu treatment. My guess is that the announced cost are for material only and do not Include the cost of impregna tion and subsequent seasoning and heat treatment. Also it prob ably ignores the degrades which necessarily occur when dry material i soaked with water and rcdrled. These degrades can be very serious or very minor, depending on circumstances.
